The difference between aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise The benefits of aerobic exercise

With the improvement of living standards, people pay special attention to physical exercise and often do some sports. Aerobic exercise is the best choice for people to exercise, but people don’t know much about the difference between aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise, and don’t know what the difference is between these two kinds of exercise. Today I will give a detailed introduction to this, so that everyone can understand the difference between the two, and also let everyone know the benefits of aerobic exercise.

Difference Between Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercise

1. Aerobic exercise is a type of exercise that is performed in the presence of sufficient oxygen. People absorb a large amount of oxygen during exercise, which can maintain physiological balance. The intensity of exercise will not be too high, and the maximum heart rate will be between 75% and 85%. Common long-distance running, mountain climbing and cycling are all aerobic exercises. Aerobic exercise plays an important role in the consumption of fat in the human body.

2. Anaerobic exercise refers to a high-speed, intense exercise in which muscles perform without oxygen. Most anaerobic exercise is instantaneous exercise with high load and intensity. It is difficult to sustain for a long time, and the body will recover slowly after fatigue. It will produce a large amount of lactic acid during exercise. It takes about 48 to 72 hours for the body to fully recover. The most common ways of anaerobic exercise are sprinting, muscle machine training and weightlifting.

Benefits of Aerobic Exercise

1. Lowers Blood Pressure

Lowering blood pressure is one of the most important benefits of aerobic exercise. After 10 weeks of aerobic exercise, systolic blood pressure can be reduced by 10 mmHg. If people can insist on jogging every day and keep the time at about half an hour, it can have a particularly good blood pressure lowering effect and can significantly reduce the symptoms of hypertension.

2. Lose weight

Weight loss is also an important benefit of aerobic exercise, because aerobic exercise can promote the burning of excess fat in the human body, accelerate their decomposition and metabolism, and reduce the amount of neutral fat in the human body. If you can insist on doing 45 minutes of aerobic exercise after meals every day, you will have a particularly good weight loss effect.

The above introduces the difference between aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise, so that everyone can know the difference between these two types of exercise. When people exercise in daily life, it is best to choose aerobic exercise, which can enhance physical fitness and lose weight.
