The final and by far most challenging step of my 1 year transformation

[@EETSNAHTATOOMAH]

You're an inspiration to alot of people mate, keep growing mentally and physically. Greetings from the UK.

[@nojsey1]

You Can Do It Joe! I smoked for around 30 years, and last year my dad passed from emphysema. I decided to quit this year and get back in shape, as I just hit 50 in march. Well, it's been 4 months since I quit, and I feel so much better, I used working out as a replacement, and now well on my way to looking and feeling so much better. So just do it, It will help you in the long-run.

[@ironicaldiction]

saw a lot of guys on my HS baseball team start that. glad to see a guy with common sense taking the necessary steps to quit a bad habit. You got my backing man. Stay Strong with it!

[@Thee1KidChaos]

Very good! I stopped smoking (cigarettes, cigars, cloves, pipe... you name it) 8 years ago. One of the best choices I ever made... of course the heart palpitations helped hasten & strengthen my resolve. Cravings came & some times I still miss it, but I'm not gonna have a heart attack to puff some smoke from a burning stick... now, if I could only kick this crack habit...

[@Kirafox3]

This guy right here is my hero. I'm sure you will overcome this addiction. We your subscribers are 100% on your side.

[@TheSUPERHAPPY1]

Thank you for your honesty. I have never smoked/chewed but what I struggle with is binging and closet/secret eating along with lying about what and when I've eaten. We all have struggles and you sharing what you struggle with helps me realize we all have our issues and can overcome them. All the best to you!

[@samatoun]

Hey Joe! Keep fighting until you know longer need it. I've been addicted to smoking for the longest time and now I'm in my third year clean, and I can tell you from my personal experience that by the 3rd month you will no longer think about it. It will be easy and you will easily do it knowing that you did one of the hardest things people try to do and can't, which is eat healthy and work out (you don't even have real cheat meals for god sake) I support you all the fucking way from MOROCCO.

[@NextBigBodyBuilder]

I feel you man. I am 17 now, and i to am around baseball all the time. I play varsity and travel ball year around, and have been dipping for about two years. I started with pouches, and just worked my way up to Copp long grain. I have been thinkin about quitting for a while, and i think this is the wake up call i need. Although it's not 100% healthy, i think you could benifet from what im doin. To treat myself once or twice a week i will smoke allitle bit off pot to relax and ease the pain

[@PFHow]

All your subscribers are on your side with this man! Hope you beat the habit, good luck!

[@marley1221]

you can do it bro.. I quit smoking cold turkey (cigarettes and weed) about a year ago. I had to completely remove myself from pretty much everything and everybody I was always around but it worked for me. I support you!

[@PoppaBoogaloo]

Man, I quit smoking about 4 months ago to help my gyming and avoid the cancer that seems to plague my family. I miss it like shit, but I'm glad I did it! Stay strong bro!

[@hou5eheadjason]

thats great joe ! when I started my fitness journey last year in may/june I quit smoking cigarettes it has been since then that I had one I have made it one year strong in quitting , I actually went to the doctor found out I had high blood pressure and was overweight , so I changed my diet to whole foods , exercised daily and quit smoking I feel so much better overall now

[@isaiahledz]

[@TantoBrownBear]

[@Narutofanfreak45]

Way to go bro, that is awesome that ur taking the last and final step to be completely healthy. Stay strong bro u can do this!

[@jay151151]

Good luck bro! It takes a strong mentality to be disciplined with your nutrition and training. But visible RESULTS always start from invisible thoughts. Keep up the good work :)

[@xXMITCHXx01]

Dipped for ten years stopped cold turky 2 months ago. If I can do it you can buddy. Keep up the good work

[@ooT1oo]

Don`t give up! I used to smoke 1 pack a day for 7 years. Now I have been smoke free for 3 years, and regularly been working out about a year and a half now. You can do this!

[@novaracjumps]

Good luck my man! We all have our trials and tribulations.For example me i have a huge problem with candy and sweets.I started 30 day no sweets challenge ( of course i do take sugars but from fruit etc) and it is very hard. Hope you can keep it up.

[@sndvl9702]

Hang in there. Awesome video! Very inspirational for all your subscribers.

[@LSxAaron8800]

Keep your head up man, I started dipping when I was 16, started cuz of football team, just stay away from things that trigger your habit, write them down and you will succeed, good luck to you brother

[@everysixseconds]

You got this JOE! KEEP FIGHTING BRO!

[@surge1899]

Great news man,you know you can do it.Wish you the best man.

[@Edinho88]

Bro you got this, this is where you show your true strength! That bad habbit cant be stronger that your willpower, no way, you will master it like you master the other aspects of your life, ive wuit smoking 4 years ago, just about the time I began working out and eating seriously, best decision in my life :) Good luck to you, keep up the good work!

[@Alphaunz]

Appreciate it buddy, you're a boss... I quit smoking 3 months ago. You just need to remember it's all mental, you're stronger than physical withdrawels. The second you get over that hump where you get use to not putting it in your mouth as a daily habit it becomes so much easier. Don't let yourself think about it, and when you do what I found worked is constantly telling myself no. I suggest you think about your youtube subscribers... as P.O.G says we are a family, we will support you!

[@Kevo4LyfeFTW]

Good luck mang. I never really got into tobacco. Im gona narrow my useage of weed because of this vid. Full support. and Full support to anyone thats quiting anything.

[@leetsx]

Stay strongman you have a great fan base we all support YOU!

[@ffrg0]

I never smoked or chewed, I can only imagine how hard it is to quit. Good luck dude, I belive in you!

[@DudeBearCow]

Good for you brother. I kicked my copenhagen habit last year and it sucks for the first 5-6 days. After that, not that bad at all.

[@1vanishin]

I have also chewed for the last 10 years. I did quit for about a year and started back up again last June. Like you said you will feel tired, sluggish, and out of it for 3-5 days. Get some sunflower seeds or something to chew on. Even though salt isn't good for you, something salty seems to help the chew cravings. Hang in there and Godspeed

[@Flexmeister]

congrats dude--you da man. Praying for strength to keep it going bro.

[@TableClothhh]

its good to see someone that really wants to change

[@isos2triple0]

Good vid Joe! You can do it seriously you have inspired me! I'm addicted to sugar even with my healthy life style I fight it ever time I go out some people think it's funny but it is a serious addiction! I've decided to cut my weekly cheat treat which is nothing but, an all out sugar feast, because of you Joe I'm in!!

[@mightyjoelaith]

Joe, I chewed and smoked for a year, quitting chew seemed easier than quitting the smokes. You can do it man, and you'll feel so much better afterward.

[@jordanmars4093]

Your so motivational. I love your attitude and positiveness. Keep it up ;)

[@nxorosco01]

Just another subscriber who stumbled upon you from TMW. BUt damn. Salute man. Salute. Support you every way I can!!!!

[@AaronWJ]

Good luck man, not gonna be easy. But things in life are never easy that are worth something.

[@RaynelEntertainment]

i believe you can do it bro, you have done so many things, and now you got your mind right, bodybuilding show a lot of qualities that people don't realize them, it gives responsability, consistency, commitment, be willing to give up things to do what you really want, and there are a bunch of others i haven't mentioned. Just commit to it, like you did to bodybuilding and you will succeed!!!!

[@puregroove]

Right on, man... you got it in you.

[@pheonixon]

very inspiring . stay strong and keep up the good work

[@Health4Thought]

Thank you all SO MUCH for your support! Your guys seriously make me feel like theres no way that i will fail! Means alot!

[@ChrissyyCull]

We are all here for you bro! Stay strong buddy :)

[@sokae242]

Hey, Fellow body builder here and I just want to say. I chewed Straight skoal for 7yrs, and I tell you IT WAS HARD!!!! to quit. everywhere i went always connected me to times that I enjoyed chewing. Best thing I did was remove myself from places I chewed. like my car, by a computer, playing video games. The extra money i saved from not spending $6.48 a can every two days went to gym membership and healthy foods and supplements. I now feel 100% better about the choice i made to stay clean.

[@SuperJdub9]

keep strong man i know its terrible..ive been tryin to quit dipping for almost three years now and i am now at 6 weeks without a chew..can honestly say i rarely ever have a craving now

[@TheGmanfresh]

Stay strong, you are the man

[@jaiinkredible18]

Good luck Joe I know you can do it.

[@AshtonMyersArcwielder]

Dude your an inspiration to many! glad i found your channel! I am Also an avid gym goer and drummer! haha be well friend! and keep it up.

[@Magani79]

YOU CAN DO IT BRAH!! we back you up on this :)

[@MrLolo096]

maaan, you're my inspiration. I'm 16, I just started smoking this year, and i'm getting addicted everyday. After watching this video, i'm sure that i'm not going to touch a cigarette again. Thanks man, You really helped me.

[@Sh4d0wZ0n3]

Good on you mate, I'm 100% positive you will beat this no problem. You have the discipline to keep up a strict diet and training regime so i'm sure this will falter in comparison. Those qualities from gym bleed over into other aspects of your life like study, work etc and gives you structure. If you can manage to go without cheat meals then i'm sure you can get rid of tobacco quite easily ;) good luck bro!

[@chsfootball21]

I saw the twins video a few weeks ago and decided to make a routine and change my diet to get back in shape...and yes i pack lips, hardest thing ive ever had to do is quit. driving, video games...anything you wanna pack one. but it can be done, ive found gum helps, ive chewed for 5 years, just gotta slowly stop...once you get to about a week or two it does get easier, best of luck bro

[@bhgraiders1]

good luck, Joe!!

[@hoagiesupreme]

I hope you make a lot of videos about this. I need to seriously quit drinking and also quit my ex girl. Both of those things are destroying my life haha. Im in!

[@swissroll99]

Stay strong, brother.

[@miguel111093]

we all support you and respect you bro!

[@Da305Alive]

I lift and have for a while and smoke. I tried many times but I've been smoking since I was 16. Now 34. I did stop for a yr and felt better and saved a ass of money but started back up so I wish you luck and will also try to kick my bad habit ass well.

[@cpjdc37]

When I chose to stop smoking after 10 years I found it easier to have a full pack of cigarettes with me at all times. I found it better to say "I chose not to smoke" making it my choice instead of not having any and couldn't smoke. I am a stubborn person and can't handle someone telling me what to do, so I felt making the choice not to do something was better than not being able to. I knew from the past when I ran out of cigarette's I wanted one 10 times more. Just worked for me. Good luck.

[@bumblebeez82]

keep it up and take it day by day!

[@lulito107]

Great video, glad to hear you're quitting. It's a good decision and i wish you the best. 2 thumbs up for this one

[@MrJayzion1]

[@Jocelynxxo]

[@samatoun]

[@AntagonistHarddance]

i was extremely pissed off the first few days i stopped smoking, try to keep your mood under control i think thats the hardest part

[@TheCanuck1867]

Keep it up bro!

[@primenoct]

hey man, this is going to be rough no doubt but lemme tell you this I have been addicted to cigs since junior high n was a chain smoker for a good 7 years. D only reason i stopped was bec my gf at the time gave me an ultimatum of no sugar walls if i didn't stop lol. My friends were of no help bec all of them smoked, first week was hell couldn't work well, fought with my boss the good thing is you got a lot of supporters man, get thru the 1st week that's the hardest! Cheers from the philippines!

[@NovemberFruit]

joe, my dad used to smoke heavily but quit 20 years ago. he did it by not looking at the mountain as a whole but by looking at it as a series of steps to climb. when starting to quit, he said to himself, "what's one night without smoking? i can go one night without a smoke." the next week he said to himself, "hey what's one day without it? i can go one day. let's just get through today." that slowly progressed to 3 days, to a week, to 2 weeks, to a month.

[@xxston3dmonkeyx]

you can do it joe!!!!!!!!!! :D

[@Ps3franco00]

I'll support u bro!

[@ImZyker]

When I started working out I quit smoking... That was fucking hard. I had to find something else to do every time I felt like smoking i.e. I was going for a walk or chew gum. Sometimes I called my friends. Luckily I had some friends that stopped the same time I did. I even tried Tic Tac's like in House M.D and it did work to an extent but I was eating so many of those motherfuckers that if I continued doing that I would have diabetes by now xD... I wish you luck man and stay strong! Peace.

[@riceboy287]

wish you luck man

[@BIGBREWnick]

good luck man

[@bdub2283]

Get you some unsalted sunflower seeds they helped me tremendously the first few week. It will be hard no matter what but if you can make the first 2 weeks you'll have it beat!!

[@watergod510]

I respect you for this

[@HedderSeh]

You can do it!!

[@rbq19931]

All Kiiiiiiiiiiiinds of gains !

[@LeetGarra]

Hey man, i'm a new sub, but you seem really cool. I think it's great you're doing this! Truly motivational, wish you the best of luck!

[@dontwalkdontrun]

You could always try Snus. It is safer than chew. Check it out. I have chewed, but I thought it was pretty nasty. Snus is a lot less terrible if you are looking to cut back rather than going cold turkey.

[@pham3]

props dude!

[@dtown0514]

you got it bro

[@mtakid]

You can do it man go
