A little tip though is that marijuana use increases catabolism so your hard earned gains will be less noticed.

Of course. John Berardi wrote an article on it, but I assume you would want something more substantial so I found a few studies on PubMed. (I fail at the Internet so I cannot diretcly link you but I will post them instead)

STUDY - Acute effects of smoking marijuana on hormones, subjective effects and performance in male human subjects.
POINT - "Plasma LH was significantly depressed and cortisol was significantly elevated after smoking marijuana"
LINK - http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez...Pubmed_RVDocSum

A study realting showing how performace is affected for up to 24 hours after smoking. Makes me not want to do a military press.
STUDY - Acute and residual effects of marijuana: profiles of plasma THC levels, physiological, subjective, and performance measures.
LINK - http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez..._RVAbstractPlus

Ummm... source?
