Document Summary

After creatine phosphate, carbs are the next source of energy for the production of atp. Glucose is the primary carb used to generate atp. Glycolysis: first step in the metabolism of glucose. B-vitamins serve as coenzymes for energy metabolism. Amino acids and glycerol can be converted to pyruvate and can provide glucose (fatty acids cannot) Body must have glucose to fuel the cns. Without glucose from food the body will break down the lean tissue to get amino acids needed to make glucose. The breakdown of glucose that provides quick energy source. Uses glucose from the glycogen stored in our muscles. Every glucose molecule that goes through glycolysis will produce 2 atp molecules. Every product is pyruvic acid converted to lactic acid. Anaerobic pathway yields energy quickly but it cannot be sustained for long (< 2 min) Contributes to fatigue but not the only factor. May be a factor in muscle soreness along with muscle damage during exercise.
