e.g if blood vessels are not restricted due to high level of cholesterol, you would be able to work harder as oxygen delivery would be improved.
Negative effects of straining on physical health
overexertion - leads to heart attack and stoke
overuse injuries - if you have a strain you may not be able to partake in physical training for several weeks
