    Exercise increases mitochondrial oxygen uptake and respiratory enzyme activity in skeletal muscle, leading to biochemical adaptations that improve aerobic capacity. Regular physical activity causes the mitochondria in muscle cells to become larger and more efficient at using oxygen to produce energy through aerobic respiration. The activities of enzymes involved in aerobic metabolism, such as citrate synthase and cytochrome c oxidase, are also elevated in the muscle mitochondria of trained athletes compared to untrained individuals.
