POSITIVE EFFECTS

• Improved Heart Health: Cardiovascular exercise causes your heart to pump at a faster rate. Since your heart is a muscle the only way for it to become stronger is to work it just like any other muscle in your body. 

• Increased Metabolism: Cardio exercise also increases other processes in the body. An effect of this exercise is an increase in metabolic rate, which makes it easier to maintain a healthy weight. 

• Improved Hormonal Profile: Exercise increases "feel good" hormones, which help with symptoms of depression and fatigue. 

• Improved Recovery Ability: Cardio helps bring oxygen-rich blood to your muscles and helps to remove some of the by products that were created during your lifting session.
