The Anaerobic System :
The anaerobic system is vital to life. It gives us the quick energy we need by using stored glycogen (blood sugar) to perform an activity. Very small amounts of glycogen are available for use by our muscles at any given time. That is why weight training "sets" last only a short period before the muscles, "burn out." Too much anaerobic training can cause chemical imbalances leading to injury and eventually illness. Weight training, sprinting, fast jogging, and most other sports are forms of anaerobic exercise.
Without a doubt, we need our anaerobic systems for burning sugar, brain energy, maintaining fat burning and for an additional source of body energy during times of stress. Also, regular amounts of resistance exercise, like weight training for example, have been shown to strengthen bones and the surrounding soft tissues in women with osteoporosis. There are other benefits as well. Unfortunately an imbalance is present in this society, with too much emphasis placed on anaerobic development.

We are made up of two types of muscle fibers that are simply named "fast" and "slow". Fast fibers are also called anaerobic fibers, while slow fibers are called aerobic fibers. Your genetic makeup often determines how much of each you have. Through training, an athlete can change the function of a particular fiber, making a slow fiber act like a fast fiber and vice versa. Once training has stopped, the cells gradually return to normal. Sprinters and bodybuilders do not have the same number of slow fibers as long distance athletes; instead, they have a great deal more fast fibers. All athletes, which include everyone who exercises regularly, have certain special needs. However, it is interesting to note that athletes participating in fast fiber sports perform better if they train their slow fibers as well according to the method given below.
