Can you lose weight only by doing aerobic exercise?
Both aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise can lose weight. The key is whether you can stick to a reasonable diet.

Definition of aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise:

1, aerobic exercise means that during exercise, the human body mainly metabolizes oxygen, reflecting that the human body exercises physically under the condition of sufficient oxygen supply, and generates energy from the metabolism of sugar, fat and amino acids to supply the body's needs.

2. Anaerobic exercise means that the human body does some high-speed and strenuous exercise in a short period of time, but when the human body tries its best to exercise, the oxygen supply is insufficient, or the sugar in the human body can't be decomposed by oxygen, so it has to rely on "anaerobic energy supply", that is, the sugar in the body generates energy in the form of anaerobic glycolysis to supply the needs of the body.

Comparison between the two:

At the same exercise time, the exercise with the highest fat-reducing efficiency is precisely the high-intensity anaerobic interval exercise. After high-intensity anaerobic intermittent exercise stops, the energy consumed by the body is much greater than that after aerobic exercise stops. For some fat people, aerobic exercise is difficult to lose weight successfully, because it is difficult to keep exercising for more than half an hour. Short-term high-intensity anaerobic intermittent exercise may be better and easier to lose weight.

Diet combination:

For people who lose weight, it is most important to combine reasonable diet, eat less fried and high-calorie food and ensure adequate sleep while exercising. The most important thing is persistence.
