    No effect, I don't chew when I lift I only chew b4 and after, but I do chew gum when I lift.

    increased fat burning - good
    hampers blood flow and eventually kills you - bad.

    like u eluded to, any benefit is heavily outweighed by the negative long term effects.

    For me, chewing tobacco is an appetite suppressant. Being that I'm a hardgainer and have a hard time consuming enough calories to make progress, it benefits me to give up chewing all together. It also makes me feel more tired and out of breath quicker (being that it's a vaso constrictor).

    If I chew before a workout, I feel weaker and get fatigued easier. I usually throw in a lip turd 2-3 times a week, later in the evening after a workout when I'm just chilling, or when I'm having a couple of drinks.

    It does inhibit your appetite, constricts your blood vessels (harder to get a pump) and also raises your metabolism slightly (bad if bulking)
