Energy Production.
DOMS- delayed onset of muscle soreness.
Derived from the metabolism of glucose (sugar).
Muscle fibers need to continually resynthesize ATP(energy) because they can only store small amounts.
Oxidation of glucose produces carbon dioxide and water, which produces lactic acid.
1/3 of energy that muscles recieve is used for work.
Remainder is released in form of heat to maintain body temperature.
Voluntary activity- walking.
Involuntary activity-shivering.
