Exercise that uses large muscle groups in continuous, repetitive action and increases heart and respiration rate is _____ exercise.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aerobic exercise involves the use of large muscle groups in continuous, repetitive action, which increases heart and respiration rate. Anaerobic exercise involves short bursts of intense activity, such as weight lifting or sprinting, and does not necessarily increase heart and respiration rate. Strength training is focused on building muscle and may not elevate heart and respiration rate as much as aerobic exercise. Stress is not a type of exercise.
