From tinctures to face masks, pet treats and beyond, we’re glad to say that CBD is more accessible than ever nowadays.

Its powerful anti-inflammatory effects also happen to make it a great ally for everyday tasks that go beyond the medical side of things. For instance, using CBD to supplement your workout can alleviate some of the most difficult parts of exercise, allowing you to push harder, cope with pain, and recover more quickly.

If you’re CBD curious, keep an eye out on exactly what kind of CBD you’re buying. The most potent and healthy CBD is “full spectrum” meaning that the CBD is extracted in such a way so that it still contains all of the different phytocannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. These phytocannabinoids allow for the “entourage effect” to take place, making full spectrum extracts far more adept at treating various ailments than their CBD isolate counterparts.

Populum Cold Therapy Hemp Rub

You may not realize how sore your muscles are while you’re still at the gym, but your body definitely will when you wake up the next morning. Fight painful and sore muscles with Populum’s Cold Therapy Hemp Rub. Made with US grown non-GMO hemp oil and added phytocannabinoids, it contains a variety of soothing ingredients like Aloe Vera, Arnica and Chamomile to relieve inflamed muscles. Just massage a thin layer over the affected area and feel the delicious arctic chill wash over you. It’s a tingly sensation that relaxes painful muscles, making post-workout recovery easier than ever.

Cordial Organics “Balance” CBD Tincture

In a world saturated by CBD tinctures it can be hard to discern the amazing from the less reputable. Luckily for you we happen to know that Cordial Organics’ “Balance” CBD tincture blend is pretty excellent. It’s made with full spectrum, USA-grown hemp that’s been extracted through a supercritical CO2 process, aka the best kind of hemp you could hope for. While other phytocannabinoids and terpenes are also added in to give you the full range of health benefits, we can’t help but love Balance for its great lemon/mint flavor. Take a dropper after a long workout to wind down in a jiffy.

CBD+ CAPSULES from Wildflower

Just like mom told you to eat your veggies we’re telling you that CBD can make for one hell of a supplement. These CBD+ capsules from Wildflower not only contain 30mg of full spectrum CBD in each capsule, but also have additional organic hemp seed oil rich in amino acids and Omega 3 and 6 added in, too. They’re also vegan friendly, if that floats your boat. Pop a capsule at the end of a healthy breakfast to get a great start on your day.

Livity Foods EverBars

Hemp oil is very, very good for you. It contains an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio that varies between 2:1 and 3:1, making it an ideal fat for promoting good health.

Livity Foods EverBars capitalize on that sweet, sweet hemp oil ratio by taking full spectrum CBD oil extracted from industrial hemp and infusing it into a 12g protein bar. The oil is chock full of CBD, cannabinoids, and terpenes like beta-caryophyllene and alpha-pinene while the bars themselves are non-GMO, gluten free and non-dairy all in one. You get a few flavors to choose from like Almond Cranberry, Blueberry Cashew, Cinnamon Ginger, and Green Power. Grab one 30 minutes before your workout for a quick burst of energy.

ReGen PCR Protein Powder

It’s officially a great time to be alive when you can harness the power of CBD into protein powder. This blend by Willpower comes in two flavors (Cinnamon Chocolate and Vanilla) and includes grass fed whey protein mixed with phytocannabinoid rich hemp oil. The end result is a blend that contains 100mg of phytocannabinoid-rich hemp oil, 20 mg of cannabinoids/terpenes and 20g of protein per serving. Blend a scoop into your daily smoothie 30 minutes after your workout to help speed up your body’s ability to build muscle tissue.

CBD Select Vape Pens (Relax Lavender Blend)

Sometimes you can inadvertently push yourself too hard and leave the gym nauseous. For those occasions a few puffs of Select’s CBD Relax Blend can put you at ease. Each vape pen is filled with CBD oil blended with organic lavender essential oils to soothe overworked muscles and iffy bellies. Expect the calming properties of the lavender mixed in with the CBD to relax your body almost immediately. You can also puff on it after your workout for a speedy trip to la-la land.

Shea Brand CBD Pain Reliever Salve

This CBD salve by Shea Brand is designed to combat pain. It’s made with CBD isolate from industrial hemp blended together with skincare goodies like organic Shea Butter, Vitamin E, Arnica oil and a blend of essential oils. The salve itself smells wonderful and helps manage all sorts of pains including chronic conditions, nerve and joint pain, and inflamed/sore muscles. It can even be used on bruises and blisters, though I personally find it most useful on dry, irritated skin. Rub it into the affected area and let the CBD do its thing.

Red Barn CBD Bath Salts

Based in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, Red Barn sources all of its hemp from its very own backyard, aka the family farm it’s been running for three generations. They also happen to make CBD bath salts that are—you guessed it—full spectrum products. Available in a lavender and rose blend, taking a bath in these salts after a workout tremendously reduces pain and inflammation in the body. We’ll also award some brownie points on account of the amazing smell you’ll have after your bath.
