As a guy that smoked for years (really, even before and after workouts when I was younger), I know that quitting smoking is tough.

I tried a couple of times unsuccessfully and for years I felt like it was a real failing of mine that I just couldn’t quit. It was like I was living a double life between fit guy and smoking guy,.
