A member asked:
What are the differences between aerobic and anaerobic exercise in terms of efficiency on metabolism?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Aerobic=efficiency: Aerobic metabolism yields about 30 ATP (energy molecules) vs 2 ATP molecules by using the anaerobic. This means aerobic is about 15 times more efficient.
