Oddly, my really poor understanding makes it seem sensical.
My circulatory system, like much of the rest of me, is wussy and flabby, and thus not able to do... whatever the right thing is. When I exercise, it is clearly working harder, getting more in shape at, you know, blood-pumping stuff. So then it gets better at doing the right thing.
Of course, this makes almost no sense when I think harder, given that higher pressure in most circumstances is due to pushing things around faster and with more force, rather than being lazy about it. We certainly don't get better water pressure out of puddles.
(Hmm. It could also all be due to more time having passed since the one time I smoked! That must be it!
