It would be wonderful if he stopped smoking but seeing as it's been a habit of his since he was a teen probably I don't see him breaking it anytime soon..
Working out at the gym and doing cardio is not only for his breathing and voice control/stamina it is for his whole body to be fit so he can have the energy required to go out on tour and stay healthy...even if he does smoke. I imagine there'd be a different voice these days if he had quit smoking back in the early 80's when he stopped drinking..I'm pretty sure however that had the drinking continued the touring/recording etc. would have ended a long, long time ago..
