Nicotine causes contraction of blood vessels, and the carbon monoxide in the smoke reduces the amount of oxygen that reaches the cells of the body, including the muscular system, by as much as 50%. The result is reduced strength and stamina.

Smoking causes failure of the lungs. This causes less oxygen in take to break down energy. Energy is used to exercise. Less energy, less exercise done for body builders. Conclusion....not really body building. That and all the wheezing and coughing do not allow much of a good work out since they need to rest to catch their breath.
