Cardio for Lifters - Episode 35

from Fiercely Fueled · host Dr. Kristin Lander

Does cardio hinder your strength gains? How does your overall fitness and conditioning level factor into your ability to gain strength? In this episode of the Fiercely Fueled Podcast, Dr. Kristin Lander and Fiercely Fueled Coach Hinrik Pálsson discuss the importance of cardio for lifters. They debunk the outdated belief that cardio negatively impacts strength gains and explore the science behind the benefits of aerobic training for powerlifters. Building an aerobic base can improve work capacity, aid in recovery, and increase stress resilience. But that cardio doesn't have to be intense and in fact working at around 70-85% of your maximum heart rate will maximize benefits. Listen in to learn more and find a form of cardio that you enjoy and incorporating it into your routine to support overall health and strength gains.  Links and Resources:  Get our free pre & post-training meals guide https://guide.fiercelyfueled.com/podcast  Follow Fiercely Fueled Nutrition:    Instagram: @fiercelyfuelednutrition https://www.instagram.com/fiercelyfuelednutrition/    Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/fiercelyfueled    YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7sAH26zWzvrI-73I1J3icA
