But studies show that doing a combination of cardio and strength training is more effective in improving strength, lean body mass and cardiovascular fitness than performing just cardio exercise alone. Strength training improves blood flow and circulation in the body and helps improve risk factors for cardiovascular disease — like high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Plus, building lean muscle mass increases your metabolism, which helps the body burn more calories and makes it easier to maintain a healthy weight.
