can you build stamina from weight training

[MAugust]

I remember in high school taking a PE class and a teacher was a football coach and he wanted all of us to weight train because he said it build up endurance and stamina. My question is is this really true or is it just broscience. Seems to me that cardio will build up endurance and stamina not weight training

for anyone to think that you can train for a marathon by weight training is complete buffoonery.

having said that weight training does build SOME stamina and endurance. it is better than sitting on the couch

bro weights build up stamina a little yes of course

 

[JasonPriest]

over time you will gradually build some stamina

If you do high intensity weight training for sure you can build stamina
like high reps high sets = no need for cardio

Try doing weight circuit training, That will.

Start with lighter weights and increase the weight week by week ....

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

Low weights, high repetition, would help you with stamina

 

[ballin2504]

In short yes it can but It depends on what type of weight training you are doing

Also helps prevent injuries!

If you are talking stamina/endurance like running, no, weight training is not going to do much. If you are talking from the football point of view, weight lifting is key
