Anaerobic exercises are characterized by high-intensity activities performed in short bursts, such as sprinting and weightlifting. These exercises rely on energy sources stored in the muscles, leading to the production of lactic acid due to the absence of oxygen. In contrast, aerobic exercises—like running and cycling—are performed at a moderate intensity and rely on oxygen to sustain activity. Aerobic exercises improve cardiovascular endurance and promote overall fitness. While both types of exercise are important, anaerobic workouts are particularly effective for building muscle strength and power, while aerobic workouts enhance stamina and cardiovascular health.
