What are best things to know about working with cigarette smokers?
Hi Kelly,
Of course you would start with that client by assessing them and understanding that their cardio endurance may be impaired by the smoking. In addition, their strength, flexibility, and recovery time after a workout could also be affected by smoking as smoking creates inflammation in the body.
Hopefully the benefits of exercise will help convince your client to quit or at least think about it.
Good luck,
Christine
