Lift, but don't separate


Sometimes I talk about weight training and cardio like they are separate things.  They are, sort of.  But most cardio exercise works out to, at base, body weight exercise and anyone who has done heavy lifting can tell you that it will elevate the heart rate right quick.


This is good news for the time-pressed.  We don’t have to find an hour for cardio and an hour for weight training.  A weight workout with cardio intervals can do it all.  Do the heavy squats and the big bench presses.  Mix in some plyojacks or some sprints.  Go home tired and happy.
