They are not categorical (like male and female), that are not discrete (like number of people in a single car; you would not typically think about 3.5 people in a car).
Aerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise means that muscles use up a lot of glucose as a fuel and tends to lower blood glucose levels. Anaerobic exercise involves higher rates of muscle contraction for shorter periods of time.naerobic exercise uses different body systems to generate fuel and is usually associated with release of chemicals (counter-regulatory hormones) that block the action of insulin and turn the liver on to make more glucose â this can mean that this type of exercise causes blood glucose levels to rise.
Anaerobic exercise is fueled by energy created through glycolysis, which is a method by which glycogen is broken down into glucose, also known as 'sugar,' and is converted into energy. Heavy weight training, sprints and jumping are examples of anaerobic exercises that rely on stored energy in your muscles. The benefits of anaerobic exercise include: 1  Building and maintaining lean muscle mass. 2  Protecting your joints. 3  Boosting metabolism. 4  Increasing bone strength and density. 5  Improving your energy.
