Marijuana Is KILLING GymBros!!!

is there any negative connection between marijuana and bodybuilding? Does smoking pot in moderation have any direct physical effects on the body's muscle building and fat burning processes?

I'm not here to advocate that anyone smoke or not smoke pot, and my only goal here is to give the objective facts as I see them. Also keep in mind that we're specifically discussing bodybuilding and marjiuana here and nothing else. Whatever other health effects it may or may not have are beyond the scope of this post.
