smoking

[dogman69]

i know smoking is a nasty habbit but started really young couldnt find anything to help me quit yetbut... will smoking effect my gains when on a cycle

[Big]

smoking is just an all around bad idea, being that you are interested in fitness I'd recommend just kicking the habit.

[Amorphic]

smoking is a vasoconstricter and appitite suppressent. you will eat more and have better pumps if you quit.

[dogman69]

im working on it doc just prescibed this new med supossed to be the best thing out there to quit got my fingers crossed

[Merc..]

Nicotine works as a anti estrogen .. Estrogen plays a " Huge " role in building muscle....

smoking is a terrible habit.. Best of luck on quitting....

What kinda of cycle are you thinking about doing ? Also what are your stats ??

[dogman69]

about 190 5'10"

some one sugested
test e
deca
dbol
ill take others suggestions on a sick stack

[Amorphic]

bodyfat percentage? goals? training history?

test, deca and dbol is overkill for a first cycle, especially with limited knowlege on aas.

the preached and parrotted rule of thumb is test only, but i dont think its time to start outlining a cycle for you yet.

how is your diet? pct knowlege? etc

lots to learn before you consider aas.

[dogman69]

iv takin for years deff not my first im looking bulk im a personal trainer so i know how to work out but since i started in high school i was always miss in formed how to use but i know now how to use and do a good pct

[solidA]

[tuname101]

[Malbolgia]

Smoke em if you got em........

Me and a couple friends quit after reading this book, i know it sounds dumb, but it really helped, you can find it in any self help area of a bookstore, but im sure you can find one for next to nothing on amazon since once you read it you have no more use for it. its called Allen Carr's The Easy Way To Quit Smoking. it really messes your head up about smoking, dispelling a lot of what cigarettes are about, and the best part is they encourage you to KEEP SMOKING while reading the book. Good Luck. I've been free for 2and a half years.

Thats Not Me On My Avatar I Swear!!!

[cache49]

If you really are ready to quit try this... a new srcipt called champix...I work in the oilfield and ive now seen several older men who have smoked a pack a day for thirty years quit and not look back...its supposed to be amazing...ask your doc for info...it apparently targets the receptors in your melon that cause the nicotine craving. Debilitates them completely...Good luck, nasty habit gettr gone...

[Perforator]

My girlfriend's about to start Chantix. I have the first month's supply in my hand now. Being a former smoker myself it's very hard to be around her and not smoke. A friend of mine used Chantix and said it worked great. Within two weeks he didn't even think about smoking. Good luck dogman69.

[dirtball_619]

thanks man itll be hard but im replacing cigs with sunflower seeds. i heard there beneficial or some shit like that lmao

[PetrX]

I was smokin for about 2 yrs str8 and when i started running at the gym again i couldnt even run half a mile...that alone made me quit and havent touched a cig for 8 months ...its a mental addiction and nothing more..

[MaGiCJNG]

Actually nicotine is known to be a physical addiction as your body craves it, but i definitely agree with you that is has a LOT to do with the mental addiction aspect as well. If you arent strong minded, you arent going to be able to quit...period!

agreed, i started smoking when i was 14 there was a time when i used to smoke 2 packs a day...i smoked for almost 13 years and quit.. it has been a year since i did'nt touch a cig i don't even like the smell any more if anyone smokes around me i can't stand the smell.. its a mental addiction everything is in your head... Its not hard to quit...

[tuname101]

wat about weed i heard it
relaxes ur muscles after u work out so they grow faster and u eat more with munchies

[Ashop]

i know smoking is a nasty habbit but started really young couldnt find anything to help me quit yetbut... will smoking effect my gains when on a cycle

personally I think it could effect your overall gains.

[almostgone]

Unless the rules have changed, talk of recreational drug use is discouraged.

wat about w**d i heard it
relaxes ur muscles after u work out so they grow faster and u eat more with munchies

No disrespect PetrX but nicotine is one of the most addictive substances known to man. However, when the mind is willing, it can do powerful things, like quitting.

[squatking_08]

Obviously nicotine in any form will prove non-beneficial to one's overall health. With that in mind I have dipped copenhagen for the past ten years and i believe i have a pretty good overall physique. So my question is; would me quitting chewing tobacco help with gains and recovery?

[solidA]

the good thing about being serious about quiting ciagarettes is that itll make u think twice about drinking . because ive tried to quit on numerous occasions and ive come to the relisation that the culprit is drinking , because after a few drinks u want to smoke. so since ive quit smoking i have not had a single drink.

2 for the price of 1

cancer sticks are not gonna help you one bit.

[AnabolicBoy1981]

smoking is not a good anti estrogen.it will not raise test like letro and adex. there are 400 other chems in those things that will lower all your hormones for sure

only way to find out would be to quit!

[Pumpitupnowkidnow]

[rabidsquirrel]

been smoking since i was 13. i quit for 8-9 month then get sucked back in. quiting again 1 of the year, but i read a study that said smoking breaks down muscle. something to do with oxgyen in the blood, ill look for the read and post it.

[kfrost06]

Nicotine works as a anti estrogen .. Estrogen plays a " Huge " role in building muscle....

Impressive fact Merc! Not many people know that.

[Airborne82]

I smoked for years and managed to quit. If I can anyone can! Good luck trying to kick the habit.
