This can apply to cigarettes or weed. On what scale does it affect your training? I get asked nearly every day if the cigs affect my workouts, and in all honestly they really don't but I heard it can catch up to you after awhile.

Not as many people smoke these days because everyone realized it doesn't make you cool.

My brother is a smoker, I've ask him why and he honestly can't justify it. He's tried to quit a few times (apparently) but because he's such a boozer he just gives in when he's on the piss.

my grandpaw has been smoking his whole life..what it did to him?..he has enfasema(spelling)and he's been breathing hard from it ever since I was born(about 20 years). He's still plugging along though at like 82. My point is wether it affects your health or training now is not that huge, but later on in life it can catch up to you. Some people smoke their whole livs and nothing happens, but some don't get lucky.

mmmm

On a more serious not,

If can reduce oxygen transportation during training, sports, etc. Thus making you fatigue faster and exhaust quicker. And imo, if you're serious about your health aside from looking good, you'd wanna stop.

Are joking or not? That's something that's not funny and you should probably see someone. If anything, going to the gym would be a step forward. Anyway, hope thangs get better.
