These foundational exercises demand oxygen without producing an intolerable oxygen debt. They activate the training effect and start producing wonderful changes in your body.

  1. The heart gets stronger. Pumps more blood with fewer strokes.
  2. Blood supply to the muscle improves due to increased collateral circulation.
  3. Total blood volume increases.
  4. Increases HDL and decreases LDL.
  5. Blood vessels become more pliable.

In short, you are improving your body’s capacity to bring in oxygen and to deliver it to your tissues and cells.
