    hahaha this is really funny.
    I would start laughing if I saw some dude smoking it up on the treadmill.

    Do whatever you want I say.

    Why would it be trolling if she were comparing meth to nicotine?

    I would be really irritated if someone, regardless of what they can squat or bench, used an E-cig in the gym. They've been banned from all the local hospitals here, so that to me says they contain harmful agents.

    To me that says they are more interested in exerting power over other people than advocating for public health.

    Wow so many hippies on this site.
    :huh: What people are hippies because they think smoking an e-cig at the gym is daft? I'll ask again do you normally smoke cigarettes when you work out?

    I see a lot of guys who dip (chewing tobacco) at the gym. It is so insanely gross. I would definitely judge you if I saw you smoking an e-cig at the gym.

    This is probably one of the dumbest things I've read on here in a long time.

    Personally I did not puff my e-cig indoors or any place that I would not normally smoke... I think of it this way- Years ago people smoked when they were pregnant, in the room with their children, and where ever they wanted to with no one really thinking about it... Then all the bad stuff came to light and what happened? "OOPS"? I think that e-cigs are a better choice than cigarettes , but it's still not right to put your choice in other people's faces. Plus who want's to be the guy in the gym getting dirty looks? Also- If you gotta have that nicotine in public, there are patches or gum.


    P.S.
    It wouldn't be weird dude. Just have at 'er.

    Haters gonna hate.

    No harm in water vapours.

    water vapor and e-cigarette does not necessarily = the same thing... My e-cig anyways was oil based, no water included...
    Eliquids contain Propylene glycol, vegetable glycerine, flavorings and sometimes nicotine. Oil is no bueno unless you're looking for lipid pneumonia

    Congrats on quitting with ecigs, I did the same thing and haven't smoked a cigarette since September myself.

    With that out of the way, don't be that douche who blows clouds where it isn't appropriate to smoke.

    Personally I would find it a tad disrespectful. Can't you wait for an hour?

    Ya that would be totally weird. Why would you want to use it in the gym? Did you used to smoke in the gym as well?

    It's just vapor, n the nicotine gives me an awesome rush/pump/energy. I seriously think I may be on to something.

    Ok, I'm in...I'm a sucker for controversy, weird topics.

    So, vaping helped me quit a 20+ year smoking addiction (1 year, totally smoke free for me, YAY!). But anyway, I'm an advocate for vaping =/= smoking, so no smoking rules are not the same as vaping. But, if you have to, vape it up in the bathroom (we in the vaping forums call this vooping, lol). Then get on with your workout. Vapor in the air would be a huge distraction to others in the gym.

    And geez, if you have expensive vape gear like I do, lock it up. Someone will swipe it (unless you keep it in your waistband or something, lol) if you leave it unattended.

    It's simply called being respectful of each person's choice and personal space. Your at the gym to work out. No one wants to smell or have anything blown into their face. I'm sure there are smokers that are at the gym. What if you pick up a cougar that doesn't smoke....... simply wait or walk away for a sec.

    Oh I'm sorry I didn't know you were god or a paladin.
    Hilarious you are judging those who think it is a bad idea as "hippies" Pot. Kettle. Black. But I guess I forgot you probably squat more than anyone else at your gym therefore you are free to judge.

    Hilarious your arms look like mine did when I was 15. Which was 3 years ago :,)
    Colour me impressed. That explains a lot to the level of your discourse as well.

    I'm calling troll on this thread.

    Call whatever you want dude. I'm about to head to the gym to do supersets for arms. (Something you clearly know nothing about...) I'll vape between sets, I'll see what happens. If they tell me to put it away then I will.
    You go for it big guy. I am sure everyone will be far too intimidated to bother you.

    wow and yep that is what just made u unattractive regardless of your physicial apperance. It's called simple respect.. that's it.. and I would re-evauluate your need that you simply can't wait or walk outside between sets.

    Seriously? Sounds like a choking hazard when someone comes and shoves it down your throat :)

    Maybe the "rush" is because you are breathing better or more deeply rather then the nicotine?

    Hmmm - Would it be wierd to lug around a Nitrous-oxide tank in the gym with an inhaler - maybe now I am onto something.

    Or on something, at least. You do know that nicotine constricts the blood vessels and sets you up for stroke or heart attack, even without the cigarette smoke, right?

    Meth also provides a great rush and you can work out for DAYS! Why not try that?

    Addiction is addiction and what you're feeling is the reward center in your brain from the craving you created by smoking or vaping that last cigarette. It's not a rush. It's called quieting a craving. Heroin addicts, crack addicts...they get that same "reward" when they get their drug of choice.

    I can't tell if you're trolling by comparing heroin and meth to nicotine. Can someone help me figure this one out?

    Agreed. That comparison was pretty over the top.

    I think you should e-cig in the gym. I TOTALLY want to be there too. I know for a fact there will be some teeny person there, wearing a huge weight lifting belt and gloves, that only uses machines with the lowest weights, and messes up the adjustments for all others, who grunts like an animal while using the machines with baby weights, who doesn't wipe their equipment down after using, who will rage on your *kitten* about it. I will be the guy on the floor laughing with tears in my eyes.
