HOT TAKE: Lifting weights isn’t exercise.

If your heart rate doesn’t stay elevated, you’re not training your body. Its more like cosplay you need a resilient heart and lungs.

This is a spicy take indeed

It’s true, You need a resilient heart and lungs to supply your muscles with oxygen while you lift weights, but lifting (especially compound exercises) is beneficial to everyone

interesting. so would you consider yoga exercise?

I don’t argue the benefits. It’s just not exercise and if true would benefit immensely from the recruitment from cardio aka exercise.
