If Max continues to hold his breath while lifting weights, he will
become dizzy and light-headed. Breathing is an important component in
performing weight training activities. This is because it contributes in the
release of carbon dioxide in the blood which enables the muscles to take more
in more oxygen. As a result, muscle contractions are more efficient and
successes in lifting heavy weights will happen more often. A person must
practice inhaling when there is less effort and exhaling when effort should be
placed to lift the heavy set of weights.
