Kids Not Holding Your Smoke In

i have put this to the test, it has also been scientifically proven that holding you hit in does not put a larger amount of thc in the blood stream. Holding your hits in tars up your lungs a little more and makes you cough harder, which sends more blood to the head, which gives you the head rush and makes you think you're getting higher. I hate when my buddies hit the joint too hard, hold it in then hack for five minutes afterward. Take smaller hits, you will get just as high without letting everyone in a half mile radius know what you're doing. Taking big rips is more of a tough guy competition between highschool aged kids. Remember those days, if you couldn't milk the bong up, clear it, and hold it in, you were a vah jay jay!
And when that wasn't enough macho for the day, out came the gravity bong

holding it in actually does get you 'higher'

i've been doing some studying and researching at the Library just up the block from me... along with my own personal tests and my doctors opinion. the smoke carry's the THC. THC is the main component that gets you high. if you take in more smoke, you're taking in more THC, if you blow the smoke out instantly, all you're taking in is the THC that was immediately absorbed by your lung walls (most of the time just a thin coat, so to speak) but if you hold it in, it absorbs more of that THC. (Obviously?)

now for my own personal tests, i took a hit from a joint, held it for about 5 seconds. i didn't feel anything, i waited for a half an hour, nothing. After i waited 30 minutes, i took another hit from the same joint, held it in for about 15 seconds, and within 5 minutes i was already feeling a slight buzz.

and my medical marijuana doctors' opinion is that (as stated above) if you hold in that smoke, you're holding in that THC, and your lungs can actually hold more THC then you think.

i do and always will hold my hits in for as long as i can, it's always without fail gotten me more high.

Only bad thing about holding it in, is that since your getting higher your tolerance rises so much faster then if you were smoking weed like cigs.
 
Obviously you guys take some week ass bong rips if you can hold em in that long
I've gotta agree here. Take bigger hits. I use a good portion of my lung capacity inhaling what I can rather than holding it inside. That being said I do try to hold it in but I never last more than a few seconds.

once again the way the lungs work is that gases are transferred durring inhale and exhale, if you want to get the most bang for your buck take slow controlled hits and slowly exhale, this will utilize maximum surface area of your lung,

take for instance running, you dont hold your breath, you breath in a controlled fashion,

I've been taking hourly tokes of some dank, using my bong.
I've come to the conclusion that holding it in is only worth it if you don't cough.
Coughing has unstablized my high and shit, coughing gets me feelings numb sometimes.

Holding in blunt smoke is just like a cig, you can only go a total of maybe 5 seconds before you start wanting to puke every time you hit it.

very good points indeed. I try to hold in my hits around 4-5 seconds... sometimes its hard with really hardcore hash powder mixed doobs, all depends on your personal ability and what you're smokin.

The green hits are super dank and smooth, I hold the lighter far enough so that my green hit ends up being just vapors.
Same goes with hash, first hits are always hits I don't wanna let out.

Hey at least the posts were short. You'd think it would be a no brainer that the smoke still ahs thc even 10seconds in.

I Vape from a volcano and I think holding in hits about 5 seconds makes a significant difference in how high I get and how fast I get there. Also I notice if I'm distracted while toking up I sometimes blow out hits quickly and end up needing to go through a bit more herb.
