Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Endurance exercise can also increase the amount of myoglobin in a cell, as increased aerobic respiration increases the need for oxygen. Myoglobin is found in the sarcoplasm and acts as an oxygen storage supply for the mitochondria.
Detailed explanation-2: -Aerobic exercise has long been known to be a potent regulator of skeletal muscle oxidative capacity (12, 13, 36), as chronic endurance exercise increases mitochondrial number/density and intrinsic mitochondrial function (15).
