Aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise are two important weight-loss exercises, which we often use in the process of losing weight, but people don't know enough about their differences and effects, and they can't give full play to the functions of the two exercises during exercise, which leads to the result that the weight-loss effect is not obvious. So, what's the difference between these two sports? Which is more beneficial to lose weight, aerobic exercise or anaerobic exercise? Next, Bian Xiao will answer your questions.

The difference between aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise

When distinguishing aerobic exercise from anaerobic exercise, people will simply distinguish the two kinds of exercise by exercise. This distinction is relatively easy, but it is a bit rough and confusing. For example, running is judged as aerobic exercise by most people. But in fact, jogging belongs to aerobic exercise, and when the running speed is fast, the human body is in a state of hypoxia, and the metabolic pattern of the human body will change, so running belongs to anaerobic exercise.

Aerobic or anaerobic, mainly according to the way of substance metabolism in the human body during exercise. When doing aerobic exercise, the human body adopts the metabolic mode of aerobic decomposition. During exercise, the human body is in an oxygen-enriched environment, consuming sugar, fat and amino acids, and generating the energy needed by the body. In anaerobic exercise, sugar mainly consumes energy, not fat and protein.

From the sports characteristics, the intensity of aerobic exercise is low and can last for a long time. However, the intensity of anaerobic exercise is high and the duration is not long, which is easy to make muscles tired and sore.

Which exercise is more weight-losing, aerobic or anaerobic?

Both aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise are beneficial to lose weight, and aerobic exercise is better from the point of view of fat reduction effect. During exercise, aerobic exercise consumes a lot of fat, while anaerobic exercise consumes most of sugar. Therefore, for some friends whose main purpose is to lose weight, Bian Xiao suggested doing more aerobic exercise. For some friends who are not too fat and mainly want to shape their figure curves through exercise, Bian Xiao suggested doing more anaerobic exercise. Anaerobic exercise is mainly aimed at muscle training, which will enhance muscle elasticity and make the body muscle lines more feminine. Some female friends will worry that doing anaerobic exercise often will become a big muscle girl. In fact, such worries are a bit redundant. Because of the hormones in women, women are not easy to grow muscles. Anaerobic exercise will only make muscles stronger and more linear, and will not increase muscles.

Aerobic+anaerobic slimming effect is the best

Aerobic exercise has a good effect on reducing fat, but it also consumes amino acids for synthesizing protein. This will lead to the decrease of protein in the body, and protein is an important synthetic element of muscle. Without protein, muscles would be reduced. If you do anaerobic exercise for a long time, there will be fewer and fewer muscles in your body, and there will not be enough muscles to support you. After stopping exercise, it is easy to rebound if you are not careful. When you do muscle training only by anaerobic exercise, your body fat is not consumed, and you will become fat and strong. And the best way to exercise is to combine the two ways in the future.

The coach suggested that before aerobic exercise, sugar should be consumed by anaerobic exercise for more than ten minutes to enhance muscle elasticity, and then aerobic exercise should be carried out to eliminate fat. In this way, anaerobic exercise combined with aerobic exercise can improve the efficiency of fat elimination and exercise muscles at the same time, which is beneficial to figure curve sculpture and avoid rebound problems.
