    The document discusses the differences between aerobic and anaerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise uses oxygen to efficiently produce 32 ATP for energy over a longer period, while anaerobic exercise only produces 2 ATP without oxygen over a shorter period. It provides examples of moderate and vigorous intensity aerobic exercises and recommends starting a new workout routine at a moderate intensity of 50-60% of maximum heart rate, gradually increasing over a period of weeks using the FITT principle of 3-5 days per week for 30 minutes per session.

    Aerobic vs Anaerobic (05/10/20)

    Hello classmates, 
    1) The difference between an aerobic workout and an anaerobic workout is that with an aerobic
    workout, oxygen is used to efficiently create 32 ATP's for energy. During an anaerobic workout,
    only 2 ATP's are made. Furthermore, anaerobic energy systems are primarily used for short and
    explosive exercises whereas aerobic energy systems are used for longer workouts. 
    2) The differences in exercise that one can do for aerobic exercises are Moderate Intensity and
    Vigorous Intensity. During Moderate Intensity, one can burn 3.5-7 cal/min and include activities
    like recreational swimming and walking at a moderate pace of 3 to 4.5 miles/hr. Vigorous
    Intensity exercises can burn more than 7 cal/min and includes activities such as running and
    mountain climbing. 
    3) If someone new was wanting to start working out, I would encourage them to start by
    assessing their current cardiorespiratory level. Next, I would assess for their MHR and start them
    with an activity that will get them at 50 to 60% of their MHR. Afterwards, gradually increase the
    intensity of their workouts every two weeks. 
    4) Aerobic exercises
    Anaerobic exercises

    5)For a beginner, I would use the following FITT principle:


    F- 3 to 5 days a week (moderate intensity)
    I- moderate intensity @ 50-60% of MHR
    T- 30 min/day or 150 min/week (moderate intensity)
    T- walking/jogging/swimming/biking/rowing/dancing/basketball/soccer/volleyball
