| Aerobics - to maintain and recover your heart/lung/vascular fitness.
When you push your aerobic limits, your cardiovascular/pulmonary system improves; it's called the 'training effect'. Your body adapts to the measured stress by becoming more efficient at getting oxygen to the cells, and the cells become more efficient in performing all their various functions. The bottom line is that the perceived effort in climbing a flight of stairs goes down; you don't have to breath as hard to get to the top, and you recover from being out of breath faster. The best part is that you only need to gradually increase your effort to 20 - 25 minutes per session, and only 3 sessions a week to achieve dramatic, life-changing improvement.
Recently, Laboratory studies have show that even greater benefit is produced by Interval Training - varying the pace over the duration of the training session by pushing into your anaerobic limit (increase output until your breathing can't keep up) every five minutes or so, then throttle down until you catch your breath and your heart rate comes back to it's baseline aerobic rate. According to Dr. Al Sears, measured increases in lung capacity and volume result in laboratory studies. This is exactly what you will experience in most well-run Spinning classes.
On the other hand, endurance running is an enormous stress on virtually all the body's organs and systems. In many respects, because it raises cortisol levels dramatically, while suppressing testosterone production, it is a formula for rapid aging. In his new book PACE® - Rediscover Your Native Fitness Dr. Sears shows how lung capacity actually decreases faster in distance runners than in those involved in other forms of exercise. It is a two-edged sword best used in moderation.
