I once knew a dummy that would smoke while jogging! Talk about counterproductive. I tried to tell him that jogging requires the heart to beat faster in turn the body needs more oxygen but he just wouldn't listen. Also, smoking after working out is not good either because the muscles are trying to repair themselves, which also requires more oxygen.

I smoke after I work out. I know. I know. It's an anomaly -- working out to improve your health and turning right around and doing something bad for it. But...sigh...some of us just haven't been able to kick that nicotine habit yet. Just because I do it (I have to deal with my own demons), I do not recommend it.
