[QUOTE="Golfboy307, post: 160465, member: 39462"] I am a life long runner, and I have heard doctors use the exact same phrase about running: you will "wear" out your heart. BS! Cardio is effective at strengthening the muscle, which leads to more efficient blood flow, which causes the heart to work less over the long term. I would think the same is true for strength training, but just to a lesser extent. Neither form necessarily protects you from plaque buildup directly, but has many indirect benefits as we know. We also now know that excessive cardio (think ultra marathoners) can hurt your CV profile: enlarged heart, more plaque build up. More isn't always better when it comes to exercise. [/QUOTE]
