Vaping and sport

[cfm78910]

Hi Guys

I've always been a pretty active person, I love cycling. I live in Cape Town and we have some of the best mountain biking in the world right on our doorstep. However, I love (loved) smoking too and the two don't go together all that well. I managed but there was no denying the damage the stinkies were causing to my body. Enter vaping and something fantastic is busy happening on the bike. I breathe better and I can feel how I'm getting more oxygen to my muscles. I'm also beginning to notice smells I've never picked up before. And the best is I can relax afterwards with a coffee and vape away without worrying about the fact that I'm putting down the next layer of tar on my already well-tarred lungs. I know I may be preaching to the converted but vaping is changing our lives in so many good ways.

Happy vaping today!

Chris

I too feel the same way after i turned to vaping from smoking analogs. Its a tremendous feeling getting done with an exercise like road/mtb and not being winded as much. Welcome to the forums!

Howdy CFM hey!! There's something wrong with your bike!!!.....the motor's missing!!

choir chiming in...I love the smells before I stopped smoking from the back of the bike (a motorcycle) even more now, (except that natural gas burn off site a mile down the road from us PEEEUUUUU *lol*)...the best way to get around honestly..it's so organic.

Oh I thought we were not going to call vaping a sport *lol* well it is..for me..lift ~~crackle~~ vape...ahhhhhh *lol*

Congrats on quitting and welcome!!!

Man, absolutely echo these sentiments. I felt so guilty for having a cigarette after walking out of the gym/finishing skipping. Now I vape happily and it feels good. My cardio ability has increased so much too since quitting, it's awesome. The ONLY downside I can think of is that my appetite has returned in full force, and I've put on some weight hahaha. That's ok though, totally worth the trade off.

I agree completely to u quit when I started working construction and I wouldn't be able to do my job if I still smoked because I couldnt breath well enough so congrats and welcome to this awesome forum.

Welcome to ECF! It's a wonderful feeling when you get away from the ball and chain as is smoking. When you think about it there is not 1 good reason to smoke/chew. But dozens of reasons not to smoke/chew.
