Breathing while lifting weights


Today's Tip:




  CORRECT BREATHING WHILE LIFTING

 Correct breathing during exercise helps keep blood pressure down and
avoid unnecessary stress on the arteries. The American College of
Sports Medicine recommends exhaling while you lift and inhaling as the
weights return to their starting position. You should never hold your
breath while lifting weights.
