Many people have found that including physical activity in their program to quit smoking has added a tremendous benefit to assist in quitting. There are many reasons for this:

When people are more active, they gain confidence and like themselves more. They feel more energy, and are more capable of dealing with tension in their lives.

With increased activity, the smell of tobacco actually becomes offensive. Whenever you feel the need to smoke after you have decided to quit, get up and move around instead.

A brief physical activity can provide you with the lift that you may have received from nicotine.
