These cannabis gummies keep selling out in 2024

If you've ever struggled to enjoy cannabis due to the harshness of smoking or vaping, you're not alone. That’s why these new cannabis gummies caught our eye.

Mood is an online dispensary that has invented a “joint within a gummy” that’s extremely potent yet federally-legal. Their gummies are formulated to tap into the human body’s endocannabinoid system.

Although this system was discovered in the 1990’s, farmers and scientists at Mood were among the first to figure out how to tap into it with cannabis gummies. Just 1 of their rapid onset THC gummies can get you feeling right within 5 minutes!

CLOSING THOUGHT

Balancing your training

Most people won’t agree with this: When you’re feeling overwhelmed, you should take some time away from training.

And if you tell me “just train more” it signals to me that you probably aren’t training enough.

That’s because what I’m talking about here is when you’re training too much.

As a friend told me recently, “Everyone has a mind of a competitor, but a heart of a hobbyist.”

So if you want to train like a competitor, be ready for the mental hurdles to come.

See you on the mats,

Wayne
