Have any runners/cyclists moved from dip to vaping? If you have, did you notice a hit on you time, stamina? TIA

Howdy, and welcome. Fwiw, I too was trying to push myself into a sport (windsurfing) after being a 1.5 pack a day smoker for 30 years. In the first 2 years I could barely sail out, turn around, come back once without running out of breath. And often I got stranded out in the water for being out of breath. Within a month after completely switching from camels to vape, I noticed significant gains in pulmonary endurance, and now 2 years later I can almost keep up with all my non-smoking sailor friends. It was like I got a whole new set of lungs. I love windsurfing way more now too.

From all I've read, vaping is far less carcinogenic than tobacco (smoke or dip), with the exceptions of burning your juice; using juice flavors made from tobacco extracts; using juice flavors of unknown and possibly carcinogenic ingredients.

Good luck with your vaping experience.

just got the kanger; holy .... guys - what a world of difference
Looks like you're on your way! To your initial inquiry, I smoked for about 25 years, started vaping in September of last year and at this point my lungs feel so much better that I want to start running! I've started with walking though, because you have to walk before you run ;) You shouldn't notice much difference in your lung performance as you dipped instead of smoking.

Just want to note that is is always a good idea to read the description of products on the vendors sites. That way you will always know if you are getting exactly what you need.

So its been a few hours, how are you doing? I never get tired of reading or seeing peoples reactions when they realize for the first time that ecigs do really work. Keep us posted on your progress and if you have questions there is always someone here at ecf willing to help.

:)

To find the vendors who support ecf there is a link at the top of each page called Forum Suppliers. Third button from the left at the top.
