Aerobic Training (Introduction)
Aerobic capacity is an important part of the training equation. The ability to
use oxygen in combination with fats and carbohydrates as fuels sources is
vital.
Aerobic Capacity
Aerobic capacity is the ability to work using oxygen
in combination with fats and carbohydrates as fuel sources to produce energy.
At low-aerobic levels, fat is the primary fuel source. At high-aerobic levels,
glycogen—stored carbohydrate in muscle—predominates as a fuel source.
