Increased Performance/Senses after Magic Mushroom Use?

Have you ever felt as if you had noticeably increased reflexes, senses or skill shortly after having a mushroom trip?
For example, on the tail end of a mushroom trip I've felt more intuitively skillful at things like bike riding. Or one time, the day after a trip, something fell off a counter and I instinctively caught it and someone made a remark about how fast my reflexes were. This isn't the only time similar things have happened after tripping and I got to thinking about it. I feel I'm just more in touch, quicker and better performing sometimes after a mushroom trip. I asked a friend this and they agreed with me that they felt the same way and told me similar stories of theirs.
I was curious as to what your experiences were, do you feel like shrooms make you feel sharper? Faster reflexes? More intuitive or better performing afterwards?

The day after a mushroom trip I pushed 10 lbs more weight on benchpress than usual. This is after not eating for 8 hours too btw

Acid does what you describe (for me at least)... but mushrooms make me feel cold and weighed down.. I usually end up laying in bed, snuggling with every pillow and beadspread in the house while listening to techno music and stroking my junk.
^^For the comeup and first part of the trip anyway... after about the 2.5 hour mark, anything goes. I might walk around, do stuff and just feel all around good. But lift weights or ride a bike? I think not.

most definitely. I successfully escaped from "something" while tripping.. escaping a car and running bare foot through straight desert! I was super human. I hid on the side of a mountain until a friend was able to pick me up...

yea i've felt similar in the past after a strong trip. i think it may be because of the fact that i overcome many of my petty problems, worries, etc., during the trip. it's almost like after a good meditation session where you feel more relaxed and concentrated because you don't have all the bullshit thoughts clustering your mind.

Yeah I feel like this could have a lot to do with it. Like you've cleared your mind of meaningless clutter and are able to focus more on the moment at hand. Which is why I think I will start taking up meditation if it can have a similar effect on my life.
