Document Summary

Direct source of energy for muscle force production comes from atp, stored in the muscle cell: muscle cells must also be able to relax and prepare for the next contraction- requires replenishment of atp. The creatine phosphate energy system phosphorylates adp to atp rapidly: anaerobic*, creatine phosphate is broken down releasing pi which is used to create atp from. With intense exercise the amount of total creatine does not change in the muscle but creatine phosphate can be reduced to very low levels as fast as 10 seconds: study on sprinters- found that atp dropped approx. 20% int he first 40 meters and then reached a plateau. The level of crp declined substantially throughout the high intensity exercise. Very low levels of crp in the muscle are associated with fatigue. 5-10 seconds for crp in muscle to deplete: duration of creatine phosphate energy system is approx.
