Aerobic vs Anaerobic Exercise

Running is a metal sport, no doubt. Training and preparing, also plays a pivotal role in a runner's ability, but can be deemed worthless without a strong mental game. I run cross country and

We’ve all gone through this feeling of exhaustion known as exercise. It can tire us out, yet leave a rewarding, kind of paradoxical feeling of energy.

America’s Obesity rate has dramatically increased throughout the years. The United States of America obesity rate is ranked in the top 10 countries in the whole universe. This is outrageous, and there must be something done in order to decrease it. Many Americans don’t even know what obesity means and how it targets millions in the nation. Obesity is when an individual is overweight, this can be classified with your BMI. Many reasons that obesity can attack you is through great amounts of calories we intake daily, and our lack of exercise,

In the United States the society needs to work on controlling this problem known as obesity. It is a problem that if does not get controlled sooner than later, will spiral out of hand even more. Before this spirals out of control society needs to take action to reducing the cost of healthy food amongst middle-low class citizens so they can eat the

When talking about obesity in a country like America, where the problem and issue is more critical we need to consider the most probable causes and the factors of obesity. According to statistics from the Center of Disease and Control in 2013 over 35.7% of Americans are obese. America is the most obese country in the world because we rely too much on technology and on other things. We also lack of physical activity and the main problem is that we have very bad eating habits. You may be asking yourself, what causes people to be obese? Well that's obvious because it's the huge amount of fast food places in America. There's literally a fast food place in every corner. As americans, we all have very bad eating habits since we would rather buy a 25 cent soup then some organic nutritious food. Also lacking on physical activity due to how busy we are at work and with family and yet still being lazy to cook something healthy or to eat anything healthy we would rather go buy something since it’s so much easier. All of this is because of what the American culture is becoming with technology and

Aerobic exercise is an endurance activity which lasts longer than one minute and utilizes large muscle groups, using oxidative phosphorylation to extract energy from ATP (Chamari & Padulo, 2015). Anaerobic exercise is a short duration activity that uses glycolysis and fermentation to extract energy from ATP (patel et al., 2017). Cardio exercise refers to aerobic exercise that lasts ten minutes or more and causes the heart to beat faster and breathing rate to increase (Pate et al., 1995). Resistance training utilizes both anaerobic and aerobic forms of exercise, depending on intensity and intervals of activity, and stimulates muscle synthesis while simultaneously increasing muscle breakdown (Kerksick et al., 2005).

Obesity in America has increased over 20% in the last 35 years and is directly or indirectly the cause of multiple hundreds of thousands of deaths

Obesity has become a major problem in America today. It is the condition of being extremely over weight, is widespread and is one of the leading health problems in the United States today. Almost two-thirds of Americans are either overweight or obese and obesity has more than doubled in the past couple decades. It causes extreme health problems such as diabetes and heart disease, and can lead to death. Unless, there is a major change regarding diet, exercise and life style in America, then the obesity rates will continue to rise, causing health problems that can affect a persons life forever. If both children and adults change their diet and lifestyle, then the rate of obesity will decrease, resulting in healthier bodies and a longer life

Obesity is a very serious subject that a lot of people take lightly, especially us as Americans. America is the most obese country in the world. Statistics show that 300,000 people die a day in the United States of America due to obesity. This clearly shows that we have a serious problem that is massively underestimated. Obesity is also something that countries all across the world suffer from. For example, Australia is also one of the most obese countries in the world, and 50,000 people die a year from obesity in Australia. That’s 140 people who die per day in Australia. To solve the problem of obesity the prices of junk food should be raised and the prices of healthy food should be lowered and more convenient.

I know as a nation, we have tried to promote more exercise and physical activity in the past few years. Yet, our efforts are still not enough, a vast portion of the population is either obese or overweight. A study in 2002 stated, “The most recent data, obtained in 1999, found that fully 61% of adult Americans were either overweight (34%) or obese (27%; National Center for Health Statistics, 1999)”[4]. These numbers have greatly increased since the early 2000s. Obesity is associated with more health complications, America being an overweight population, we are forced to spend a tremendous about of money to give these medications and therapy for these health complications. Some of the health problems that can arise from being obese include, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, and of course diabetes. Everyone has heard of diabetes, also called insulin

Slow muscle fibers (slow twitch) sustain repeated contraction don’t generate a lock of quick power. Endurance exercises, long distance running slow and steady. ATP production, aerobically. Many mitochondria, myoglobin, oxygen carrier

7th August Initial Goal: I try to enhance aerobic fitness and decrease time no later than initial time dropping maybe two or three minutes. Taking longer strides and increasing physical activity versus endurance. My objective is go at faster pace until I can build up a steady speed and to get it in 30 minutes without giving up or slowing down.

These exercises are not strenuous they improve my cardio-respiratory endurance so that I can reach my future goals. Aerobic exercise get my heart rate up and my breathing increases. According to a post on answerisfitness.com, “From there the oxygen goes straight to your heart. The heart then sends the blood along with the oxygen and other nutrients throughout your body. Once the oxygen is inside your muscles it burns fat and carbohydrates for fuel. The more fuel the muscles use the more fit we become and the longer we can exercise.” (2010) So at least I can work on my cardiorespiratory endurance until I can get through finals.

After the 10 week resistance program, 80 percent of the subjects had on exercise completions, glucose levels within the normal range, while only 20 percent of the aerobic group were able to meet the target. In addition to that, the resistance training group had greater reductions in HbA1c compared with the aerobic group (<7.o % for HbA1c while 40 % on the other hand of persons in the resistance exercise group were able to meet this goal. These were in fact able to reduce HbA1c values by an average of 18% in contrast to the aerobic groups mere 8%. Now though one may be tempted to assume that aerobic exercise should be better for heart health, it should be noted that blood pressure and heart resting rate did not change in either group over the 10 week

Mike has suffered a heart attack and lives a sedentary lifestyle. His physician has suggested that he start an exercise prescription at a cardiac rehab center over a 2-month period. His BMR for a sedentary lifestyle is 2012.4. The physician wants to see Mike body fat percentage go from 28.1% to 24%. To achieve this goal mike needs to at least 3x/week with a mix of moderate and vigorous exercise.
