0/10
Aerobic Training Intensity
Typically performed at 60-80% of one's maximum heart rate, sustained for at least 20 minutes.
Benefits of Anaerobic Training
Enhances muscle power, strength, and size; improves metabolic rate and can aid in body fat reduction.
Aerobic Training
A form of exercise that requires oxygen to produce energy, often performed at moderate intensity for extended periods.
Anaerobic Training
A form of exercise that does not rely on oxygen for immediate energy production, generally comprising high intensity, short duration activities.
Examples of Anaerobic Activities
Exercises like sprinting, weight lifting, and interval training are considered anaerobic activities.
Energy Source for Aerobic
Primarily uses fats, carbohydrates, and sometimes proteins with oxygen to produce energy.
Energy Source for Anaerobic
Relies on energy sources stored in muscles, such as ATP and creatine phosphate, as well as glucose through glycolysis.
Examples of Aerobic Activities
Activities like distance running, swimming, cycling, and walking typically fall under aerobic exercises.
Anaerobic Training Intensity
Operates above 80% of one's maximum heart rate, often involves high-intensity intervals or near-maximal effort.
Benefits of Aerobic Training
Improves cardiovascular conditioning, reduces body fat, and increases endurance and stamina.
