But I've always been curious of smokers who exercise regulary, go to the gym or jog, etc. How do you deal with the extra strain on your lungs? Or do you even feel it?

doesnt bother me...except when i tried to quit smoking once, and then i went err, i tried to go for a run...couldnt go for as long as i usually would

All the above, except weed (quit some 4 yrs back for good.)

Not smoking doesn't make you boring.

I used to play 1st grade Rugby in Australia and I didn't really feel the effect. It felt weird having a cig after exercising though.

I liked your old avatar better than your new avatar. Is there like a shoe avatar site you girls get all your avatars from?

its been a while since i smoked a biddi

lol, fun times.

Interesting, I guess smoking still doesn't affect some guys/gals much, or its effects are still not showing, maybe that's a reason why quitting is not a much of a priority?

Right. But I don't smoke and don't drink and I don't like jokes. so, yeah, boring.

(ian, it was time to change my shoes, but I'll return to boots soon cuz it's fall after all...)

way back in my mountaineering years... if I had a schedule for a major climb, then I smoke less before the climb. but during the climb, i couldn't help not to smoke, i smoke less though.

I think the reason why some smokers don't notice the effects of smoking in their athlethic performance is because they don't know what their performance would be in the first place if they didn't start smoking..

bushra,
I would never take up smoking - anything. And I don't think there's anything wrong with not liking jokes - we're all different afterall, we all have our quirks... but i do enjoy making fun of people from time to time.

lucifer, oh that was not a joke, it was just a shoe thing.

wearyheart, I like hiking too, but my lung capacity is not that great, I'm working on it though...

pinoy, you make some great points.

i was joking

I will add I'm not a heavy smoker, 10 to 12 a day which is classed as light to moderate.

I do not smoke, surprise surprise! I use to like the smell of cigarettes and tried it but never liked it. I tried shisha it is fun but I hate the smell of weed Yuk!!and I have seen what it does to people. Iam boring, I know but I love my body and hate putting junk in it.

not smoking or not doing drugs does not make a person boring...just makes them smart

BEER

I've taken cannabis (both resin and grass), mushrooms, opium......and of course I drink & smoke (only socially).

to smoke weed is way more fun then gettin drunk ... cause weed doesnt leave u with the messed up hangover ... keeps you refreshed at all times..

and for the record ive tested on everything .. except insertin a needle into my body .. that i aint down with .. and after my testing ive maintain'd a constant connection with some of the products.

Too much weed will effect man’s performance in bed or no performance at all.

That's just whack!
