Nicotine/Chewing bad idea?

[MistaKurtz]

Getripped, not that dip is as healthy for you as eating your vegies, takeing your vitamins, and saying your prayers but..... there are many, many professional athletes at every level of the NFL, MLB, NHL, WNBA?, that use smokeless. IF anything it may cut your wind by a fraction but I doubt you would notice.

Alot of those same athletes abuse pain killers, cocaine, sleep meds, etc...Just because they do are doing it DOESNT mean it is good for you

Bottom line: It SURE AS HELL ISNT helping your athletic performance...

Waite.....this is a bodybuilding forum right? Your telling me that the numbers for the abuse of these drugs in the NFL etc. are higher than BB. What vacum are you living in? At the very least the professional leagues have LEGITIMATE drug testing programs and consequences for thier violation. Not the token programs imposed by the IFBB and other bodies. Someone watching a few to many reruns of "Playmakers?"

When did I EVER make a comparison of drug abuse in BB'ing to the NFL? Dont put words or phrases in my mouth that were NEVER there to begin with

How about you just read: "The bottom line" of my post then and dont try and start a flame war with me ...I dont have the extra time or patience to put up with that kind of stuff...

Thank you for your understanding

I'm not a pro BB'er (or EVER aspire to be ) so I couldnt tell what kind of programs they have for testing (and honestly I couldnt care less...)

But from the 14 posts you have made I can see you are having little trouble making friends around here already

if youve seen the amount of jaws missing that i have then you would have laready stop do a search on it and look at some pics of surgeries just to see of you could take it when it happens to you have you tried the natural stuff? that gives kind of a buzz and has a good taste to it? try using that on and off to swithch on or combine the two then totally switch to natural.
but yes its ok to chew while on and nicotine speeeds up fatloss when your at your last line of weapons before a contest, and not wanting to tell you but 4 years back it was the big buzz to chew nicorette gum while doing legs some dipped since a recent study showed that it increased strength, taken at a certain time spiked ephindrine release, then you may remember after that came the inhaler use before heavy sets
later

I had a hell of a time quiting the chew did it off and on for a few years...
It interfered with BB'ing gains IMO. (It will initially help you burn FAT but the effects a re blunted after a while.)
Nicotine gum has been used as an ergogenic aid by some but I find it far too toxic.
I did nicorettes for a while too..chewed a couple of pieces a day after large meals.
I started to get chest pains and quit, went to the cardiologist and got checked A-OK..he told me Nicotine was a posion and very hard on the heart itself.

i quit smokeing in jan so i'm comeing up on a year but you have to want to do it. people who say "it's not the right time" or "i need to wait until i have a little less stress" are kidding themselves. your life will have stress no matter what. i quit on deployment in iraq, now do you think i had a little stress there? well yea i did but i wanted to quit that bad. i smoked for 15 years and worked out just as long but could not help feeling like an ass working so hard and putting that shit in my body. my tip is to use the nicotine patches they really work, they bring you down slowley and break a lot of the habit associated with smokeing or chewing. good luck.

I have quit dipping since this thread was started. The first week was hell, the second week was worse...but, if you can make it to the third week, CAKE WALK! Here's the dealio...i've tightened up a great deal since i came off. I'm not sure why, maybe because i'm eating more frequently. This is coming from someone who has dipped at least a can a day for the better part of 12 years, so don't tell me it's too hard. That which does not kill me only serves to make me stronger.
