25 Examples of Anaerobic Exercise

 ,
Anaerobic exercise is significant use of muscles in a way that quickly burns oxygen. In fact, anaerobic means "absence of oxygen." This can be contrasted with aerobic exercise that consumes oxygen at a sustainable pace such that an activity can be continued for a long duration of time. Anaerobic exercise is a diverse category of exercise that is typically intended to develop strength, speed and agility. The following are illustrative examples.
American Football
Arm Wrestling
Ballistic Training (throwing exercises)
Bodybuilding
Calisthenics
Cycling Sprint
Gymnastics (e.g. pommel horse, rings, parallel bars, vaulting )
Handstand
High Jump
Interval Training (repeated short duration exercise)
Long Jump
Plyometrics (jump training)
Pole Vault
Pull-ups
Pushups
Rowing Sprints
Rugby
Sit-ups
Sprinting
Squats
Swimming Sprint
Throwing Sports (e.g. Javelin Throw)
Tug of War
Weight Lifting
Wrestling
Team sports such as football that involve short sequences of intense speed and strength are mostly anaerobic.
Athletes in an anaerobic sport typically require significant aerobic exercise as this is a pathway to an improved performance of the heart and lungs.
