I hear and respect your opinion. A quick google search that maybe I should have done earlier shows this has been a source of hot contention for at least 2 decades by different authors and on the forums. ...even the US Navy has an opinion! I don't think we'll settle it today, so I'll offer up my case study of one as evidence for the aerobic camp, though as will all physical activity I'm sure there are a mix of muscle fiber types and metabolic pathways involved.
