Study Notes
Characteristics of Aerobic vs. Anaerobic Exercise
- Aerobic exercise primarily relies on oxygen to fuel the body during prolonged physical activities.
- Examples of aerobic exercises include running, cycling, swimming, and rowing.
- Anaerobic exercise is characterized by short bursts of intense activity where oxygen demand exceeds supply.
- Common examples of anaerobic exercise are sprinting, weight lifting, and high-intensity interval training (HIIT).
- The primary energy source for anaerobic exercise is adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and creatine phosphate, which provide quick energy without oxygen.
Heart Rate and Aerobic Exercise
- Aerobic exercise typically maintains a heart rate that is 60-85% of an individual's maximum heart rate for optimal cardiovascular benefits.
