Of course it does but it's barely relevant to the goals of the exercise though so tracking it is minimally useful beyond the vague curiosity of cataloging and measuring every moment.

It's usually not the primary benefit of the exercise. You are not going to maintain zone 2 (120-140 bpm) while lifting.
