Maybe: Males who use marijuana have increased levels of circulating estrogens, which of course, compete with endogenous (your own) androgens for binding sites in tissues. If you're serious about body building and weight training, you should want to be as healthy as possible, so using drugs is not a good choice. Of course, the "munchies" usually result in carbohydrate excess, which isn't always good.
