Bodybuilders and Smoking.
« on: July 02, 2011, 12:56:19 AM »
Seriously, some of the biggest (+lean) guys I know, including a pro, or guys with respectable builts, who happen to be ripped too, are

heavy/moderate smokers.

Ive always wondered if smoking works as a appettite suppressant and is indirectly a fatburner...

Anyone from here smokes?

They always tell you that smoking is "bad" for bbing or alcohol for example..im sure each and every one of you here know at least one person who is considered an "exception" (drinks/smokes)

Appetite supresses yes.

However I don't think it has any fatburning qualities. It restricts blood flow in the body. And make limbs colder. It does increase heart rate though. Not a doctor but this is what Ive gathered.

A shitty deal I'd say.

I know of several people who have lung cancer from habitual smoking, lungs filled up with tar...smoking hinders lung capacity...

Furthermore, i thought you were going to be more "positive" is that another one of your lies.

Pulling out a packet of smokes is a great way to get rid of numpties who want to talk to me about what supplements I take to keep my abs so ripped and my "sit-up/crunch routine."

There should be a brand simply called Fuck Off.

smoking makes the skin dryer/thinner and helps dieting

Smoking indeed diminishes appetite. That's why teenage girl tend to smoke more these days.
Theoretically it increases metabolism, so more fat gets burned.
It temporarily increases bloodsugar.

And you tend to die from it.

Says Doctor Dutch.

  Yeah, I once saw a huge guy in Miami beach smoking. It has nothing to do with fat burning. Nicotine dramatically increases your ability to contract muscles due to stimulation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. This also relaxes your muscles which makes you feel a lot less pain. The release of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens region of the brain increases motivation, and the release of norepinephrine in the locus coerelus area of the brain increases determination. Unfortunately, nicotine in gum does not have the same effect, as it reaches the bloodstream a lot more slowly than when you inhale tobacco smoke.

Many folks smoke - and many happen to go to the gym. One gym I used to train always had people light up their cig right after a workout.
I smoke from 3 - 10 cigs a day and it clearly isn't a good thing, but not as serious as some folks make it out to be.
If you haven't started already - stay away.
