Dupree Stopped Smoking, Used Other Tools in the Toolbox, and Went Pro with Dupree Stewart

Hello and welcome back to exploring cannabis and exercise! The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data.Today I have a fan favorite guest Dupree Stewart back on to talk about why he decided to cut back on cannabis to help with his MMA training. If you go back to the 5th episode of the podcast, Dupree talked about how he used cannabis to help manage pain, to eat, and to recover with his training. Then, I ran into Dupree at Costco a few months ago and he said that he stopped smoking and went pro in MMA. So, obviously, I had to have him back on the show to talk about that experience. One of the big take aways I got from this conversation is the power of having other tools in the toolbox. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, cannabis is just one tool in the toolbox of health and sometimes you need different tools. So this is a great listen if you’re considering taking a break from cannabis with exercise and interested in learning to use some other tools in the toolbox. Follow Dupree on Instagram @dupreemfstewartAs always, hope you enjoy and make good choices out there.Support the showTo learn more about Dr. Ogle, visit https://www.whitneyogle.comIf you’d like to be guest, have any guest ideas, or have any questions about cannabis and exercise you’d like me to talk about, send me a DM on Instagram @exploringcannabisandexercise  or email me at [email protected]. If you like what I'm up to and want to help me continue to make this podcast happen, you can venmo me @whitney-ogle or  https://www.buzzsprout.com/1966271/supporters/new  Host: Whitney Ogle DPT, PhDIntro Music: Haley Montowski (and producer for Season 1 - thank you Haley!)Music: "Bonfire Cauliflower" by Isaac Joel **Friendly reminder/disclaimer** I am not suggesting everyone use cannabis with exercise.
