How many times per week should anaerobic interval training be completed?

  1. Once

  2. Two or three times

  3. Every day

  4. Five times

The correct answer is: Two or three times

Anaerobic interval training targets the body's anaerobic system to improve muscular strength and endurance. Unlike aerobic exercise, anaerobic training requires a higher intensity but shorter duration. Option A is incorrect because completing anaerobic interval training only once a week would not provide enough stimulus for the body to improve. Option C is incorrect because while it's important to exercise daily, doing anaerobic interval training every day can lead to burnout and overtraining. Option D is incorrect because performing anaerobic intervals five times a week without proper rest and recovery can lead to fatigue and injury. Option B, completing the training two or three times per week, allows for proper stimulus and recovery time, leading to improved physical fitness without the risk of overtraining.
