Does weight training help improve your heart health ?
I know that cardio is excellent for your heart and lungs. But, when I’m lifting weights my heart obviously beats pretty fast as I lift and for quite a while after, obviously supplying oxygen, blood etc to where it’s needed. I also sweat a fair bit for about an hour after a good workout too.
My question is, is lifting weights helping me to maintain a healthy heart ? I’m not really talking about Fat Loss aspect, but rather the raise in heart rate, does it have the same benefits as doing a cardio work out ?
Thanks guys.
if you can lift weights at a rate that will keep your heart beating in that target HR range; then yes, it’ll do pretty much the same thing as a cardio exercise.
most likely though, with lifting heavier weights; that’s not happening.
