How Can Severe Weakness Due To Smoking Methamphetamine Be Treated?

Ive been smoking meth everyday for a little over a year now and I've noticed how weak I've become.is there any kind of strength training or vitamin my multi would not contain that could help? I also hate how tired I get sometimes or unmotivated. I know ppl would say to quite but I'm not going to, so next best thing is to manage.
