Yeah, verb is right. It's a change in blood pressure. If you're holding your breath this could accentuate it. I'm not saying you should pay inordinate amounts of attention to your breathing. I kinda think you should do what's natural...but if it becomes too uncomfortable then you can try more exhaling when lifting.

If your heart is healthy then there is no real danger from lifing heavy weights. Make sure you have a good warmup...don't just go right to the heavy stuff...ease into it. Make sure you are aware of proper form so that if the weights are too heavy for you to maintain form that you'll know to lighten up.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
