question
1. aerobic exercise uses oxygen, typically involves using large muscle groups during continuous activities, and promotes cardiovascular health. 2. Your body produces energy under anaerobic conditions during the first few seconds of intense exercise. 3. When one of the three phosphates is removed from ATP, ADP is formed and energy is released. 4. CP is stored in the muscles and is broken down to replenish ATP stores.
answer
5. When participating in low-intensity activities over a long period of time, the body primarily uses fat for energy. 6. A small amount of amino acids from protein can be utilized for energy production during endurance events, but their primary role is to promote muscle growth and help with repair. 7. Your body burns carbohydrates for energy during every type of exercise that lasts longer than three seconds. Intensity and duration of exercise will affect the percentage of energy that is derived from this source. 8. Endurance athletes may use a training strategy known as carbohydrate loading to maximize their body's glycogen stores. 9. The body's preferred carbohydrate source during very vigorous-intensity exercise for energy is muscle glycogen.
