CBD is perfectly safe to take whilst exercising. When it comes to taking prior to exercise, research suggests that CBD can ease symptoms of anxiety and allow for better focus through a workout. 

However, the benefits of CBD are particularly suited to post-exercise. A host of research suggests that the properties in CBD can be used to aid recovery, inflammation & pain relief. 

In terms of recovery, CBD is thought to soften the delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and the accompanying pain and immobility. This is thanks to its ability to help with inflammation that is commonly the body's response to exercise.
