What actually happens with your body if you increase cardio?

For example you could be super in shape from a muscular perspective but have really bad cardio and vice versa.

How is cardio different from physical shape and what exactly happens in your body that makes you have more cardio?

Think of your body like a city.

Lifting weights = building muscles = building housing and facilities in the city.

Doing cardio = building your cardiovascular system = building highways and transits and terminals to move people around.

No city survives if you have a million condos but no transit and small, pothole-filled roads.

No body survives very long with lots of muscles but terrible cardiovascular system to support it.
