Smokers being highly affected in performance a sport activity
“The reality is that smokers are simply less fit. They have less endurance, flexibility and lower performance levels. They are highly unlikely to succeed in their chosen sport if they continue to smoke”. Studies have shown that athletes who smoke are more likely to discontinue active sports. Smoking decreases oxygen to your lungs causing you to puff more, increases heart rate to fatigue, increases the time taken for your heart rate to go back to normal which fronts to increase recovery times, slows your reaction speeds, effects your visual judgment, decreases oxygen to the muscles. In comparison to the above shows that the benefits of being a smoke free athlete are enormous. In short, the result of heavy smoking is sport reduced performance.
So, QUIT SMOKING and live a healthy life!!!
