What pathway provides short-term energy?
Glycolysis Moderate duration = 30-90 seconds Moderate-high intensity = 75-90% intensity
The pathway that provides short-term energy is the anaerobic pathway, also known as the lactic acid system. This pathway relies on the breakdown of stored glucose in the muscles without the need for oxygen. The breakdown of glucose produces energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) through a process called glycolysis. This process can happen quickly, making it ideal for short bursts of energy, such as sprinting or weightlifting. However, because it does not require oxygen, it can only produce energy for a limited time before fatigue sets in and lactic acid builds up in the muscles, causing soreness and pain.
