Aerobic capacity w.r.t. strength training
Hoping this is the right forum for this.... For the last few months I've included weight/resistance training to my regimen. I'm doing higher reps (rather than heavier weight) to get more of an endurance benefit than a muscle mass increase. I'm starting to wonder if I need to increase my...
