In the simplest terms the difference comes down to the oxygen. With aerobic exercise oxygen is carried through your breath to the muscles giving them the energy needed to sustain the effort. Oxygen is not present with anaerobic exercise. Exercise requires energy. When we exercise aerobically our bodies use glycogen and fat as fuel.
Summary. 1  Aerobic and anaerobic are adjectives used in reference to organisms, cellular respiration and physical exercises. 2  Aerobic pertains to ârequiring airâ, while anaerobic means âwithout airâ. 3  Aerobic organisms can live and grow in the presence of oxygen, while anaerobic ones donât necessarily require it to survive. Aerobic respiration uses oxygen as the final electron acceptor in the generation of energy in the form of ATP. 2  In anaerobic respiration, an inorganic acceptor such as sulfur is utilized. 3  Aerobic metabolism is 19 times more efficient than anaerobic.
