Resynthesizes ATP after 10 seconds of intense exercise and is stored in the muscles, to allow it to be broken down quickly
1 of 5
Explan the use of carbohydrates
Stored as glycogen in the muscles and liver and is converted into glucose during exercise to allow aerobic respiration to begin. In high intensity exercise, oxygen is not required and anaerobic respiration takes place
2 of 5

Stored as triglycerides and converted into fatty acids through beta oxidation.
3 of 5
