smokeless tobacco

I understand the carcinogenic and vasoactive effects of the use of smokeless tobacco, but are there any known effects on mechanisms that may lead to undesirable outcomes in strength training ie; mps, satellite signaling, neuronal recruitemt etc? Basically what I’m asking is if dipping affects strength gains in any known way.

Thanks

Yea, in addition to the health risks it seems to increase fatigue, decrease MPS, and reduce performance in both anaerobic and aerobic tests. Not sure about the other things you listed.

Have these same impacts been seen from non-tobacco based sources of nicotine (e.g. nicotine lozenges)?
