Abstract

Aerobic endurance can be defined as the amount of oxygen intake during exercise. Aerobic endurance measures the time in which you can exercise without producing lactic acid in your muscles. Endurance in basketball is essential for players to maintain stamina throughout an entire game, as well as the entire season. Aerobic exercises also have a place in football, where it contributes to making athletes stronger and better at what they do. A super lap or a long distance run aren’t the only way to incorporate aerobic exercises into practices, i.e. there are other ways., Hockey players also require more aerobic fitness to perform well in their match. The best way to improve on aerobic fitness is through activities that put the body’s large muscle groups to work dynamically; these activities include walking, jogging, running, swimming, skating, cycling, stair-climbing, and cross-country skiing.
