Can I get aerobic benefits from a high intensity strength training workout?
Absolutely! One should know that there is a difference between cardiovascular exercise and aerobic exercise. This 20 minute workout will adequately elevate your heart rate and improve your heart and lung capacity, which is enough to keep your cardiovascular system healthy. In itself, strength training will not make you an elite runner, but you don’t need the aerobic capacity of a marathon runner to have a strong, healthy cardiovascular system. What you will find is that the strength training will make you better at the recreational activities you enjoy.
