Likewise if you don't have a good
functioning aerobic system, which helps the power muscle fibers function and prevents injury.
A well -
functioning aerobic system improves circulation, helps the immune system, supports anaerobic muscles, protects joints, ligaments, tendons and bones, and aids other functions.34

In other words, it represents an inflated
function of the
aerobic system.
In that sense, you may turn your
aerobic system lazy, and make your speed and endurance a
function of how much you can fuel, rather than a
function of how much fat you can burn.
MAF stands for «Maximum
Aerobic Function,» referring to the aerobic system, the fat - burning engine responsible for fueling all of the body's
Aerobic Function,» referring to the
aerobic system, the fat - burning engine responsible for fueling all of the body's
aerobic system, the fat - burning engine responsible for fueling all of the body's needs.
If maintaining such a workout regularly for, let's say two or three months, it could suddenly turn on you, reducing
aerobic function, lowering fat burning, suppressing the immune
system, and causing physical stress with a reduction in
aerobic muscle
function.
The method focuses on improving the
function of the
aerobic system, the fat - burning engine responsible for fueling all of the body's needs.
If you are too stressed, your
aerobic system will be impaired, which means that your
aerobic function will be reduced.
In addition to this recipe for cancer, physical, chemical and mental stress can increase the hormone cortisol and sympathetic nervous
system activity further impairing
aerobic function.
Our new MAF iPhone App has a MAF Test
function that you can use to take your MAF tests systematically and observe the development of your
aerobic system across time.

aerobic system was suppressed at the beginning of the session, and that it regained
function throughout the run.
Aerobic exercise strengthens your heart and improves the
function of the cardiovascular
system which is important in delivering blood to your muscles.
But there are other areas that you can also address: anything that reduces stress (better nutrition, better sleep, fewer chemicals around you) also increases
aerobic function, essentially making the
aerobic system more «trainable.»
The 180 - Formula tells you the maximum heart rate at which your
aerobic system gets activated with minimal anaerobic
function.
2, the
aerobic base has to develop a little more to accommodate the increased
functioning of the thermoregulatory
system.
However, if you reduce that exercise intensity, you have no guarantee that your
aerobic function is substantial enough that your lactate levels begin to drop (that you are developing the
aerobic system instead of the anaerobic one).
This means that unless you can perfectly match your insulin replacement to the type and level of activity that you're doing, specifically taking into account the action that leptin (to name one hormone of many) should be doing, your
aerobic system will still be
functioning anomalously.
If you put insulin into the body to regulate blood sugar, those insulin levels aren't being regulated by other hormones (such as leptin, a hormone which increases the usage of fats) whose co-
functioning heavily influences the
functioning of the
aerobic system.
Any stress basically decreases
aerobic function, which makes it more difficult to train the
aerobic system.
So, when you «struggle» to burn fats, the preoccupation itself (and the mental stress it implies) may be increasing your anaerobic
function from a psychological direction, and preventing you from developing your
aerobic system, burning fats, and losing weight.
