normal people, like me. Member 2325, 550 posts | Short of really excessive smoking, you'll probably not notice all that much when you're young-ish. Got a mate who gave up in his late 20s because he felt it was having an impact on his general health. Not trying to lecture, but people spend a huge amount of time training, eating etc. Not smoking seems like a fairly straightforward way to help that out. Oh, and avoid some cancers. But then, I do feel somewhat strongly about it as due to the luck of the genetic draw I have lungs like that of a COPD sufferer and will never achieve highly in sports etc as a result. Not sure why those who could and put in a lot of the required effort then choose to hamper their efforts. Suppose it was a lecture. Sorry. | ||

403 forbidden message Member 160, 5121 posts SQ 190, BP 137.5, DL 225552.5 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq | I normally smoke about 4-6ish a day, but more likely to if i'm outdoors or want to relax. So at comps I usually smoke more, quite often between lifts. Don't know if it's affected my ability to lift/recover as I haven't lifted as a non-smoker. | ||
