May attenuate BP strain during routine lifts in young men; leaves open effects in older or at-risk populations.
Does 19 weeks of weight training alter the blood pressure response to weight lifting in young men?
Weight training increases peak arterial pressure during maximal lifts but reduces the pressure response to lifting the same absolute weight.
