Who Smokes Ciggs?

[DJ_UFO]

cubans are the only cigars I touch...
Cohíbas all the way

I heard is very hard to get real cubans in other states. Cohibas, Montecristo, and others that you find here in the stores are made in Dominican Republic from Dominican leaf; it's not the same.Cuban cigars is probably the only thing I'm gonna miss from Miami. Oh and the strippers.

I hate the F*^king the things but Im realy strugling to put them down at moment. Just went 5 days without any and went and bought a pack last night. I WILL be giving them up completely once this pack's gone.
Just split from an 11 year relationship so at times life feels like im passing yoshi squid jigs out the back door. Do they help, probably not. Do u want them, u bet your sweet ass u do.
Buying that pack last night was a realy bad idea, Ive got my first power lifting comp on today.

Cubans are easy to find and contrary to what some think - risk free. I've been getting them mailed to me from Puerto Rico for years. Cohibas, Monte Cristo, Romeo y Juliet. The trick is, all cubans are not made the same. That's right, they use left over wrapper and inferior cuban fillers all the time and if your a local you know what i'm talking about. It's like IP cigars or something. Get a good source and he'll treat you right and get you grade A cigars. There is nothing like the taste of real Cohiba that's for sure. You guys should try Aurora, best cigar for under $15 bucks here in the states. They come with a Red Plastic cover. Oh yeah, if you go on a cruise or go to an island destination you can find them just use caution cause just like AS you can get fakes. Take the label off the cigar and stick them in the lapel of your jacket. 100% gaurantee you'll get them back for grandpa.

I need to quit, i'm up to almost a half pack ed. I've been smokin since I was 14 and now i'm 24. I would really like to see what kind of gains I would of made in lifting if I had never started. Its almost like through the years i've been blazin up (before/after workouts) nicotine has incorporated in my blood stream so much that it has made me more addicted physically.

I am 6 weeks clean from smoking. I figured if I was going to invest this much cash and energy and time into getting healthy I better quit. I had been smoking for 28 years. Im on the patch but it is still a hard thing to do. Good luck to you all who decide to quit and congrats to those who never started. I wish I was one of them....

It's good to see working out playing a positive role in people's lives and giving them a reason to quit smoking. Although it's often buried underneath steroids and countless ergogenics, bodybuilding and weight training are very healthy.

I do think it's pretty hypocritical to see people post (not just here, but on other threads as well) about the horrors of smoking tobacco, yet go on to praise marijuana. So what's the horror with smoking tobacco? The fact that it's smoking, thus implying smoking anything is harmful, or is it the nicotine, making dip just as bad? Or is it solely the frequency of using one of the aforementioned... but does that really make it "safe"? It's easy to dig up medical research on the harms of cigar smoking as well, but needless to say, all these things have damaging effects on the body, just in different ways. Lots of people seem to be splitting hairs on the boards WRT these items.

I see your point. Any smoke is def. harmful

I smoke ganj ed and I no for a fact I can stop smoking weed anytime I want without getting any side effects(stress,insomnia,headaches,appetite,cravings) With ciggarettes though, its almost like its not just the drug that gets you addicted, its the smoking rituals you'll get addicted to like after a meal, or in the car, while drinking, on the computer, waking up. It's more like before, when, or after you do something you start to get into a routine habit of always lighting up. When you smoke weed you get high and stay high, you don't get into routines in such a way as ciggarettes make you.

The reason marijuana isn't such a fiend drug is because it takes so much longer to deplete out of your system (max 30 days). THC gets stored in fat cells and is gradually exerted over a long period of time, so even though you don't seem high, chronic is still in your blood keeping you from crashing. Nicotine is like coke, heroin, and meth, you get a short high and then the chemicals are released from your system. Thats why you see people having such a hard time quitting and going cold turkey.
