Ep. 28 - Aerobic vs Anaerobic Power: How Your Body Really Makes Energy

Get A Demo: https://korr.com/contact/video-demo/ Aerobic vs anaerobic power isn't just sports-science jargon—it's the operating manual for your training and daily life. Dr. Marc Humbert and Dr. Cameron Garber break down how your body produces ATP through the ATP-PC, glycolytic, and oxidative systems, why "power" (max rate) and "capacity" (how long) are different, and how CardioCoach metabolic testing (VO₂, VCO₂, fuel use) turns those ideas into precise workouts. We dig into thresholds, "fat max," recovery timelines, the injury trap of single-day spikes, and why frequency → duration → intensity is the safest path—whether you're a lifter, runner, or weekend hockey hero. You'll leave with a practical framework to train what you can actually recover from, build longevity, and still hit top-end performance when it matters. What you'll learn The difference between metabolic power vs mechanical power How ATP-PC, glycolytic, and oxidative systems overlap in real workouts "Power" vs "capacity" (and why both matter for sport and longevity) Recovery timelines for ATP-PC/creatine and why rest intervals matter How metabolic testing (VO₂ max, thresholds, fuel use) personalizes training Using fat max and thresholds to place Zone 2 and HIIT correctly Why frequency → duration → intensity reduces injuries and burnout How to balance high- and low-intensity work (including when 80/20 is wrong) Sport-specific profiles (powerlifter vs marathoner vs field/court athletes) Cardio that doesn't kill your gains (fuel-sparing zones for lifters) Follow KORR: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/korrmedical/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/korrmedical/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/korrmedical https://korr.com/  Listen to the Metabolic Mastery Podcast: Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/metabolic-mastery/id1812972674  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2sgLMFv1Z8DwEz87yUpapI?si=29a177a6c6ca4ed4  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@korrmed/podcasts  YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVCRWXBDdFo_S0OeaAsPv8xTnfajTLc75&si=d4wVUA0jqajkbukB  Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/d76834b7-c11a-485f-8010-32b490d49e57/metabolic-mastery
