Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which energy system is the quickest to re-synthesize ATP?
A
Anaerobic glycolysis
B
Aerobic glycolysis
C
Lactic acid
D
CP System
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The phosphagen system (also called the CrP-ATP system) is the quickest way to resynthesize ATP. Creatine phosphate (CrP), which is stored in skeletal muscles, donates a phosphate to ADP to produce ATP.

Detailed explanation-2: -The phosphagen energy system utilizes creatine phosphate (CP) stored in muscle cells to very quickly produce ATP. This immediate energy system is also called the ATP-CP system.

Detailed explanation-3: -In addition, it is well understood that a period of 3–5 minutes is required for the complete recovery of the adenosine triphosphate-phosphocreatine (ATP-PC) energy system (5, 9). This system is critical in fueling high-intensity effort for extremely short periods.
