Definetly not good for ya lol
I dip too, but I'm going to try and quit next week.
last time I dipped I ate half of it and threw up all over my car.... Wicked awesome!
I wouldnt reccomend dipping while working out, but it wont hinder your gains if thats what you are asking. Definately not good for you though, I spit out a piece of my gums about a week ago.....
Yeah, I guess that would be a good reason to quit. I was thinking I would quit when my teeth started to fall out. :lol:Quote:

Just as nasty as smoking.
Sure, here's an opinion... its nasty. Your mouth will eventually look like a sewer. And yes, it will effect your workouts. It sstill contains nicotine which like in cigarettes, will dialate your arteries, slow down blood flow, increase the strain on your heartr and lower your vascularity. Not to mention eventually give you mouth cancer. Ever see one of those people thathad to have half their jaw removed from dip??? nasty.
I dip.... trying to quit, but it's a hard habit to kick. Anyways, I wouldn't say it will actually hinder your workouts, but it can't help them either. I'm not gonna preach or lecture, but if it's an occasional thing.... stop now before ya become hooked like many of us have.
Yep. I started off slow and now i'm in to about a can a day sometimes more.Quote:

Damn nasty... Yuck used to do it, and smoke... Glad thats over with
kodiak straight mmhhmm i have quit about 3 times so far but i really enjoy chewing. right now on the east coast they have grizzly straight which is about the same thing. I have found that by switching to a straight chew it doesnt burn up my gums like winter green and those new chick flavors that skoal has release.
i dip at work sometimes.i find it gives me a little boost in the mornin :)
It's a Texas thing..... you just wouldn't understand. :DQuote:

Yeah, grizzly, just bought some of the grizzy straight the other day. Inexpensive but pretty good. I can't stand those fruity flavors either.Quote:

i bought apple skoal the other day, not bad.
I value your advice. Right now I'm only dipping once a day and if I miss a day it's no big deal. I'm still getting those nice little headrushes everytime I dip. You vets probably don't get those anymore.Quote:

Hell I like dipping, my teeth have became sensitive to cold now.... but I've been doing it for over 12 years now. I'm not the type to tell people "Oh smoking and dipping is bad you need to quit" but I just had to offer the opinion to quit now while your not addicted cause than it's harder than hell to kick.... just my .02.Quote:

When the Grizzly mint came out it was $.49 a tin, and i would buy as many as they would let me.Quote:

GIVE IT UP FOR THE K-IIIICE!
J/K, i used to dip, but quit cus of the new girl. in a way im actually ahppy, cus that sh*it gives you HORRIBALE breath, eats away at your gums, and makes your teeth sensitive as hell. if i tryed dippin now, id probably pass out, ha.
From a female view.........

LOL ewwwwwwwwwwwwww

Too disgusting
Hey bump for my contribution
Well thank you very much for those pics (as I currently have a dip in) :p
I'm working on quitting. I value my teeth and gums to much. It's a hard habit to kick and don't have the intentions of keeping this much longer.
Damn thats sexy as hell!!
My work here is done :2nono:
