Anyone know why I'd be getting headaches when I lift weights -- I ride my bike and go for a run/walk about 3 times a week, and I never get headaches from doing cardio exercise, but when I try and lift weights I get a massive headache straight away.. are there any common causes for this?
improper breathing can drastically spike your blood pressure when lifting, make sure you are breathing properly.

>>146088HOLDing your breath? I've squat 415 before, and if I held my breath, I would've passed the fuck out.I force the air out so it kinda sounds like hydraulics; pretty silly, but it enforces good breathing technique.
>>146104yeah thats what i mean, but you cannot just inhale and exhale normally, you gotta let it out in tiny spurts
