Answer 1

Hi there!

Bobsleigh would be considered an aerobic sport because it involves the strength of all the team members to push the board. The boards often travel around 100 miles per hour, so it takes a lot of energy to travel this fast.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

I would say it is considered an aerobic sport mainly because it requires the athletes on the team to be fit and be capable of pushing the bob from a complete stop to an ongoing speed down the hill. When training, the athletes have to meet certain expectations in lifting weights, sprinting, jumping, pushing, and pulling, etc. And all of these exercises are aerobic, making the sport itself aerobic.
