Dr. Laura Kavavirta, a Finnish biology of exercise science expert, states that "... the complex interplay of of several control mechanisms... which enable the human body to adapt to training, seem to be on a collision course when endurance and strength training are performed in tandem."
In addition to being individually determined, the ability to improve strength and endurance simultaneously is also dependent upon program-specific variables. Program volume (how much), frequency (how often), and intensity (how hard) also affect the overall effectiveness of the exercise.
Ideally, you should perform your strength and endurance workouts on separate days, or at least several hours apart. I know that's not practical for many people. So you can help maximize the effectiveness of your exercise program in the following ways:
There are a few other recommendations to help you make the most out of your exercise program. First, get a comprehensive fitness assessment.A certified independent fitness professional will assess your current fitness baseline, fitness goals, interests, and abilities.
Second, have an independent fitness professional design a customized fitness programbased upon your fitness level, goals, interests, and abilities.
Finally, ensure that you periodize your programto prevent "plateauing" or failing to make continuing gains. Your body adapts to the program you are performing, so make sure you are chaining its variables at least every 4-6 weeks. Again, check with your doctor before beginning any exercise program.
