Because quitting smoking is very stressful and leads to weight gain, it is difficult to do. The key to quitting, however, may be as simple as replacing an unhealthy activity with a healthy one. In one study, half of those attempting to quit were assigned to a smoking-cessation program alone, and the other half were assigned to the same program plus fifteen weeks of aerobic exercise. At the one-month mark, none in the first group had quit, but 40 percent of those in the second group had not smoked.

A
Regular exercise prevents weight gain.
Aerobic exercise helps stave off one negative consequence of quitting smoking. This supports the idea that picking up exercise helps people quit smoking.
B
Each group in the study included four hundred randomly selected participants.
The study had a solid sample-size. Works for us.
C
Nonsmokers accustomed to regular exercise do not gain weight when they stop exercising.
We don’t care about nonsmokers. We care about how exercise can help smokers quit smoking.
D
Aerobic exercise can stimulate the brain’s production of endorphins, which reduce tension.
Exercise helps diminish tension, which is a negative side effect of quitting smoking. This supports the idea that picking up exercise helps people quit smoking.
E
Of those in the second group in the study, 38 percent had not smoked at the one-year mark.
The people who quit smoking didn’t relapse later on. Thus, exercise was indeed helpful for quitting smoking.
