Smoking and Exercise Study Seeking Participants! (El Paso) - (29)

The YMCA of El Paso is looking for individuals who are over 18, daily smokers who are motivated to quit, and not currently exercising but would like to begin. This is a 54-week investigational study that aims to understand how effective exercise is in adults who are quitting smoking. Participants will complete 75 minutes per week of exercise for 15 weeks, and will be provided with a 4-month YMCA membership including a personal trainer. After 6 weeks, participants will try to quit smoking. Participants will also receive counseling through the Texas Tobacco Quitline, as well as nicotine replacement therapy. Your participation in this study may help researchers improve treatment approaches for smoking cessation. Further research today and join our compensated study!
