I’ve gained some muscle, but wonder how much my tobacco use impacts my muscle gain.
I heard Brad Pitt quit smoking to prepare for Gladiator, and figure it must have made a big difference for him to do so.
I KNOW the benefits of quitting already. My question specifically is:
If I smoke one pack a day, my weightlifting efforts will be only what percentage effective? 80%? 70%
Is this an oxygen thing? A nicotine thing? A carbon monoxide thing? Why and how does smoking interfere with muscle gain?
Hopefully, I’ll be quitting soon!

I understand working out and eating correctly works but I am looking for something to speed up the process. What supplement is trustworthy and will work the best.

I am very slim build and I feel very uncomfortable physically. I plan to jog and invert myself with weights as a form of exercise. I plan to take dessicated liver powder which is safe and glutamine tablets which is also very safe to bodybuild. What other supplement would you personally recommend for me that is healthy and easy to make a recipe drink or take? I have heard of humagro hormopathic pellets, but their reviews are not very good. Thank you so much.

It came out about a decade ago, and all my friends started using it and benefited from it. Now, what’s new in the market and will be widely used in the future?
