Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercise

"In addition to nutrition, there are more falls in the sports field than any other health disciplines" (Dintiman, Stone, Pennington, and Davis, 1984). Exercise brings important physical and mental benefits essential to life. It can significantly improve endurance, strengthen muscles, adjust, prevent disease, increase flexibility, control weight, and extend the quality of life. In order to receive all the benefits from exercise and to maintain health it is important to understand and take two kinds of exercise, anaerobic exercise and aerobic exercise.

Metabolic processes used in aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise distinguish them from each other. Both aerobic and anaerobic migration generate energy by glycolysis (glucose conversion to pyruvate), but the substances used to break down glucose are different. Oxygen is used to decompose glucose by aerobic exercise but anaerobic exercise uses creatine phosphate stored in muscle to carry out the process. We will perform aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise to achieve personal goals. Aerobic exercise focuses on strengthening and respiration of the muscles involved. Improve blood circulation and oxygen transport in the body, lower blood pressure, burn fat. On the other hand, anaerobic exercise increases strength and muscle mass, strengthens bone, and helps to increase speed, strength, muscle strength and metabolic rate. When the body is resting, it focuses on burning calories

There are many advantages for both aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise. They both build muscle and improve overall health. They even have the same sports! For example, if you choose to jog, you can use aerobics or aerobics. If you decide to sprint the finish line at the end of jogging, you just need to convert the aerobic exercise into anaerobic exercise. The biggest difference between aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise is how the body obtains energy. In the case of anaerobic exercise, muscle gains energy from glycogen. This degradation of glycogen can lead to the formation of lactic acid in the muscle. If glycogen is used, athletes can expect energy and performance to degrade and "collide the walls" with their movements.

The problem with the terms "aerobic" and "anaerobic" when applied to exercise is that we never actually switch from total aerobic to total anaerobic conditions. In fact, the stronger our movement, the greater the need for anaerobic energy production. Therefore, the terms aerobic and anaerobic are preferably to be regarded as metabolic transitions in which the ratio between aerobic metabolism and anaerobic metabolism changes according to exercise intensity. For example, at rest, we rely on aerobic metabolism to cover all the energy needs of our bodies. For example, when you start walking slowly after sitting, you need to increase your breathing and oxygen intake in order to increase the energy required for muscle contraction. As long as exercise intensity is gradually increased, we can maintain dependence on aerobic metabolism of muscles and fatigue symptoms will not occur.
