Cannabis & Exercise Recovery with Dr. J. Derek Kingsley
Episode description
Hello and welcome back to exploring cannabis and exercise! The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data. This week I’m talking with Dr. J. Derek Kingsley, professor at Kent State University in Ohio. We recorded this right after Ohioans voted to approve recreational cannabis in the state! We talk about his experience of being a pain researcher to being a chronic pain patient himself after a gnarly injury and using medical cannabis to manage his pain.
We also talk about a study he published last year about how people use cannabis to aid in recovery, our dream research ideas, and the current research he's up to now.

**Friendly reminder/disclaimer** I am not suggesting everyone use cannabis with exercise. Cannabis is definitely not for everyone. But if you're curious about your own use, understanding more about why people use cannabis with exercise, or want to learn about the latest research in the field, you're in the right place. Make good choices out there.
