The fuel sources for aerobic cellular metabolism are fats and carbohydrates, with a greater percentage of calories coming from fats at lower intensities.

If you stand up and walk around, you'll probably still be using mostly fats for fuel because your aerobic metabolism can still keep up with demands, but you'll probably also start burning more carbs as your muscles respond to the new demand for action.

No adequate explanation of this phenomenon has yet been given; but the low basal metabolic rate of whale muscle (Benedict, 1958), in combination with the high content of oxymyoglobin in vivo (cf 4.3.1), may permit aerobic metabolism to continue slowly for some time after the death of the animal, whereby ATP levels can be maintained sufficiently to delay the union of actin and myosin in rigor mortis.

The process of converting fat to energy is essential for a healthy metabolism, and takes place in the slow - twitch muscle fibers, the aerobic muscle cell's mitochondria.

Our speculation is VESPA keeps the athlete «locked into» high level fat metabolism even when concentrated carbohydrates are introduced back into the diet and during fueling and the high insulin sensitivity gained from the physiological shift to the «Fat - Adapted metabolic State» allows the carbs to be quickly and sustainably be converted to energy for only the very peak part of the aerobic spectrum and any surges into the anaerobic spectrum of metabolism.

The good news about aerobic metabolism is that the supply of fuel (body fat) is nearly endless, and you can exercise for many, many hours using this energy system.

Aerobic metabolism fuels most of the energy needed for long duration activity.

Aerobic metabolism is used primarily during endurance exercise, which is generally less intense and can continue for long periods of time.

So you're using your aerobic system in the same way — it's just more tiring for your leg muscles because the body is pouring much more of its metabolism into them than with running.

Supplementing the diet with DIM and eating cruciferous vegetables increases the specific aerobic metabolism for estrogen, multiplying the chance for estrogen to be broken down into its beneficial, or «good» estrogen metabolites.

This is important when you consider that your metabolism (really meaning your aerobic metabolism) is far more responsible for carrying you across distance than your muscles are.

Of course, you need to train at high intensities to develop the contractile power for your muscles to be able to generate high speeds, but the ability to put those muscles to use at that intensity comes from the aerobic metabolism.

A diet lower in carbs and higher in fats fuels a healthy aerobic metabolism and keeps your glycogen in your muscles for when you want to train hard, train long duration, lift heavy, or do all three.

Although endurance training has also been shown to improve glucose metabolism (23,24), the larger gains in hypertrophy from strength training may explain the greater risk reduction for type 2 diabetes than cardiovascular disease among those participating in both strength training and aerobic activities.
