what energy systems are there
The anaerobic glycolytic energy system utilizes carbohydrates to create ATP for energy. This is a two-phase energy system where glucose is broken down to form ATP and pyruvic acid or lactic acid molecules. There are more than 10 steps to this energy system.
The aerobic energy system does not produce lactic acid, but unlike the other two energy systems, it does require oxygen. Just like the lactic anaerobic energy system, the aerobic energy system must directly recruit the active cellular respiration process to provide. energy. Food energy is converted into. by your muscle cells through a very complex series of reactions.
. Once the. stored in your muscles runs out the alactic anaerobic energy system will not provide further. energy until your muscles have rested and been able to regenerate their. levels.
