Aerobic exercise

• Aerobic exercise occurs with a low to moderate demand for energy
• • Walking and jogging are examples of aerobic exercise where normal breathing can occur
• Aerobic exercise equation

  Glucose + oxygen → energy + carbon dioxide + water
• • Aerobic respiration releases more energy per glucose molecule than anaerobic because the glucose is fully broken down
• Sporting examples

  • walking/hiking
  • jogging
  • long-distance running (marathon)
  • distance swimming
• Sporting examples that use a mixture of both

  • football
