1. What is aerobic exercise?

Low-intensity, rhythmic and long-lasting, aerobic exercise, also known as cardiopulmonary exercise, generates energy through aerobic metabolism of glucose and fatty acids for muscle contraction and enhancement of cardiopulmonary function, mainly consuming fat, carbohydrates and protein. For example: brisk walking, jogging, swimming, cycling.

2. What is anaerobic exercise?

High intensity, explosive force and short duration, anaerobic exercise is also called strength training, which provides energy through the anaerobic decomposition of ATP- creatine phosphate and glycogen, strengthens muscles through the process of muscle fiber injury-repair, and mainly consumes carbohydrates. For example: sprint, weight-bearing training, weight-bearing squat, push-ups, belly roll, boxing.

3. Common aerobic exercise: swimming, brisk walking, cycling, aerobics, jogging, mountain climbing and yoga.

4. Common anaerobic exercises: lifting dumbbells, sprinting, weight-bearing training, weight-bearing squats, push-ups, belly rolling and boxing.

PS: Aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise are just two extremes of exercise. In fact, almost all exercises are aerobic and anaerobic mixed energy-supplying exercises. Usually, the differentiation of sports types is only a form of energy supply, not one or the other.

5. Aerobic effect: the girth is obviously reduced, and the weight will fall off the scale. Cardiopulmonary ability is improved, mental state is better, and fatigue is not easy. Conclusion: Aerobic exercise is more effective in reducing body fat and weight.

Anaerobic effect: stronger muscles and better endurance. The meat is tight and the muscle lines are obvious. The weight changes little and may even rise. Conclusion: Anaerobic exercise can better adjust the conclusion shape and compact effect of the body.

During aerobic exercise, the body has enough time to mobilize fat for energy. During anaerobic exercise, the body gives priority to the use of muscle glycogen, an economical and fast energy-supplying substance. However, the proportion of energy-supplying nutrients will change with the intensity and duration of exercise.

Anna suggested that both kinds of exercise have different benefits to the body. As long as you move, it will help you lose weight. However, losing weight depends on 7 points of diet and 3 points of exercise. A scientific and reasonable diet can get twice the result with half the effort.
