Reply With QuoteI don't know much about the drinks your referring to, but I was also a smoker of menthol cigarettes and some mild bud smoking just last year. I stopped both and started running early mornings before class. Started not being able to run a half mile. Now I just timed myself this morning in the mile and a half at 11:22.. Not the best time ,but a lot better than I was. Just stick with it and read articles to make sure you are doing everything dealing with running properly.

Isotonic drinks
Not sure if this belongs in supplements, if so then mods please feel free to move.
Anyway, I struggle with cardio being a recent ex smoker so I'm looking for a bit of an extra kick up the bum because I just can't find the extra push like I can with the weights, I've even tried doing my cardio before the weights to no avail. My question: What's the best way to use Isotonic drinks, before or during my cardio? Down the 500ml bottle maybe 30 mins before I start my cardio to align with finishing the weights? What?
Another setback is that I have ligament(that I know for sure) and possible cartiledge damage that went untreated for 7 months which restricts me a little bit as well(I've just got round to seeing a physio and had mri scans to see if there is indeed cartiledge damage). So any advice on products that could help with the mild pain would be great. Ibuprofen helps a bit but I don't wanna be putting too much strain on my liver as I'm using 10mg dbol before my workout.
Also, any help with supplements or other products to give me an energy boost would be grateful
nb. please don't advise ephedrine or the likes because I wouldn't touch them with a bargepole.

I smoked for about 20 yrs and quit around 1996. Body went to crap had the whole bypass thing last September. I started off in October 09 just doing the slow walking (0degree incline @2.0mph) on the treadmill. I drank 1/2 bottle of the NO2 drink about 15 minutes before starting since I walked for 40 minutes. Then you sip as you go along. I'm now walking at 4.5-8.0 incline (depending on heart rate) for 40 minutes. I have minor ligament issues in my ankle but when they're not bothering me I do add short bursts of sprints (30 seconds ) at fill tilt every 4 minutes after I reach minute 20. Most days I just walk at 3.8-4.0mph incline 3.5-4.0. It will take a while to recover and get your body moving in the right direction but you can do it. If I can you can. Good luck!
Weight lifting is like " Mind over Matter". If my body doesn't mind---the weight doesn't matter!!!!!
