Does anyone have an explanation why chronic smokers jog and work out vigorously? Just curious!

I don't know about others but the only reason I ever move faster than a walk is if the car won't start, the closest store is about to close and I'm outta smokes...

I've often wondered the same thing about fat people. Don't they realize they will lose all that weight they worked so hard to gain?
"Yeah, supersize that big mac meal and give me a diet coke."
it is just a weight control and health issue. do harm with the smokes and compensate with a little good cardio exercise. i personally smoke and swim about 1/2 mile a day! i guess the main reason i smoke is because xanax and valium make me too sleepy to work and i would hate to kill some people. LOL.
The real question is "why do people get DRUNK 5 nights a week, and be the first at the church on sunday?"

Er, because xanax and valium make them too sleepy & they'd hate to kill someone?

Because they call themselves a Christian?

I get you. sometimes that 5 min. smoke to calm down can make all the difference in the world. LOL. @ the xanax and valium. i feel you on that one. High stress job and nothing can be done about it! you want to eat, you gotta work!P.S. see you at the pool in the morning. LOL!
elleymae, I don't know of any chronic smokers who jog or work out vigorously.
It's bad enough that a person has to smoke at all, I cannot understand why one has to smoke continuously?
