I Would Not: We can't expect those who guide us to be perfect themselves. However, it is reasonable to expect personal trainers to place a high priority on health. If a trainer smokes, i would have difficulty listening to their advice in other health-related areas.

No: To me smoking is in such opposition to good health - that it would be hard for me to see the individual as truly committed to health.
