The Impact of Exercise on Mitochondrial Health
Exercise, both aerobic and resistance training, is essential for improving mitochondrial health. Aerobic exercise increases the number and quality of mitochondria, while resistance training affects muscle size and contractile components. High-intensity interval training combines the benefits of cardiovascular exercise and resistance training, making it an effective way to increase power output. Mitochondrial health is crucial for cellular energy production, oxidative stress management, and cell signaling. Exercise is the most powerful intervention for improving mitochondrial health.
