anaerobic training

Without-breath workout method

Anaerobic training is exercise intense enough that the body can't supply oxygen fast enough to fuel the muscles, forcing them to burn stored energy without it.

Sprinting, heavy weightlifting, and high-intensity interval training are anaerobic—short bursts that build power and muscle rather than endurance.

After six weeks of anaerobic training, her vertical jump improved dramatically.
