2. TYPES
AEROBIC STAMINA
This is continuous exercise over a long period of
time at a comfortable rhythm.
Our muscles receive enough oxygen to do the
exercise.
ANAEROBIC STAMINA
These are short exercises at an intense rhythm.
Our muscles receive less oxygen than they need
to do the exercise.
3. EXAMPLES
AEROBIC ENDURANCE
A cross-country skier completes a 50km run in less than 2
hours. She needs to maintain a constant rhythm to be able
to finish the competition
ANAEROBIC ENDURANCE
A 400m racer or a sprint while you are playing a game of
tag
4. HOW DO YOU TRAIN
There are lots of ways to improve stamina, but every type of
training session must have the following characteristics:
Sessions must be at least 15 to 30 minutes long
They must be done at least twice a week
The whole body must be exercised
Exercise should be done at a comfortable rhythm
Any of these exercises could be: bicycle rides, tag
games, swimming, roller skating…
5. Did you know…?
After physical activity you can find what type of
endurance training you have done. Calculate
your heart rate, and:
IF YOUR RATE IS BETWEEN 120-140 bpm, YOU
WORK AEROBIC STAMINA TRAINING
IF YOUR RATE IS BETWEEN 170-190 bpm, YOU
PERFORM ANAEROBIC STAMINA TRAINING
You calculate your maximum heart rate (MHR)
using this formula:
