When I did cardio I would be lucky to last 20 minutes before feeling dizzy and sick. I have only been smoke free for a month but I can easily do cardio for 45 minutes without the feeling terrible after.

I have heard that smoking actually makes your blood circulation slower. This means the supply of oxygen and protein for your muscle will also become slower. Correct me if im wrong Well i still smoke 1 stick per day though....
