Weight-Lifting and the Cardiovascular System
|
Weight-lifting builds strong bones and muscles, but isn't so good for the CV system. Cholesterol isn't lowered, and, after many years, the arterial wall stiffens (decreased compliance). Weight-lifters should incorporate some type of aerobic exercise into their routine.

Description:
|
It's a hollow ball with handles that can be filled with water.
|
How It Works:
|
The ball can be filled with water to produce any weight. But, the real key is the sloshing motion that occurs when you move it...ie., a "destabilized" weight. This recruits additional muscles and nerve pathways to provide an enhanced training effect.
|
Why It's Cool:
|
It adds a dimension to resistance training and balance training that dumbbells and kettle bells cannot provide.
