A new study published in the Preventative Medicine Reports journal found that people who use marijuana on a regular basis take more walks than non-users or cigarette users. Not only that, but they do strength training and regular exercising just as much as people who don’t consume cannabis, contradicting a common stigma that stoners are lazy or unmotivated.
The study was conducted by researchers at the University of Texas in Dallas and Ohio University. Data was pulled from a pool of more than 2,500 adults who took place in the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health between 2016-2018.
“Results indicated that participants’ marijuana and e-cigarette use predicted their walking for exercise, with marijuana users walking the highest number of times per week, followed by non-users, e-cigarette users, and dual users. However, this effect only approached significance after controlling for covariates. There were no significant differences in strength training or general exercise between groups,” researchers wrote.

They also acknowledged that other factors could be influencing these results, stating: “This trend may be due to some adults using cannabis to increase their motivation for and enjoyment of exercise…or the concentration of marijuana users in urban areas. People who live in large American cities – which tend to be in states where medical and recreational marijuana are legal – also tend to use public transport and walk more.”
This is one of the first studies of its kind, so more research is needed to fully conclude these findings. However, researchers spoke positively about the results, writing that “perhaps the association between marijuana use and exercise may not be a primary concern compared to the drug’s relation to other aspects of health for adults.”
