Let's talk about aerobic and anaerobic exercise first. We can roughly distinguish aerobic exercise from anaerobic exercise, but many people may not understand the difference between the two kinds of exercise. In fact, the term aerobic exercise or anaerobic exercise is not very accurate. Accurately speaking, there is no difference between aerobic and anaerobic exercise itself. Aerobic and anaerobic, both refer to the way of energy metabolism.

Difference:

The advantages of aerobic exercise are: it can increase oxygen intake and better consume excess calories in the body. Through this kind of exercise, oxygen can fully ferment the sugar in the body, consume the fat in the body, enhance and improve the cardiopulmonary function, prevent osteoporosis, and adjust the psychological and mental state, which is the main exercise mode of fitness.

The strength training of anaerobic exercise is better than aerobic exercise in increasing bone density. The repair of injured muscles after exercise and the metabolism of lactic acid consume fat, increase the ratio of muscle to fat, improve the metabolic rate of muscles and improve the immunity of the body. Therefore, compared with aerobic exercise, its "fat reduction" effect is not reflected in "exercise" but after exercise, so as to achieve the effect of "losing weight" even without exercise. Anaerobic exercise can improve the speed and strength of muscle contraction and effectively reduce the risk of joint injury and disease death.

Choose aerobic exercise or anaerobic exercise

First of all, we should look at what our exercise purpose is and our actual situation. The intensity of aerobic exercise is relatively low and safe, and the load of various organs and joints of the body is relatively small, which is not easy to cause injury accidents; The intensity of anaerobic exercise is relatively large, and the load borne by various organs of the body is also relatively large, but it can also better improve the working ability of the body. For young people with low weight, in order to improve their physical fitness and endurance to strenuous exercise, it is necessary to arrange a certain proportion of anaerobic exercise. Old people or people with heavy weight should give priority to aerobic exercise and do some anaerobic exercise in moderation.

For fat reduction, aerobic exercise can fully consume fat, while anaerobic metabolism mainly consumes glycogen. The result of glycogen consumption is to accelerate aerobic metabolism and use fat for energy supply. Therefore, the combination of anaerobic and aerobic fat reduction is better.
