Detailed explanation-1: -Glucose is the primary energy source for both anaerobic and aerobic metabolism. Fatty acids are stored as triglycerides in muscles, but about 90 percent of stored energy is found in adipose tissue.
Detailed explanation-2: -Simple carbohydrates: Various forms of sugar, such as fructose (fruit sugar) and sucrose (table sugar), are simple carbohydrates. They are small molecules, so they can be broken down and absorbed by the body quickly and are the quickest source of energy.
Detailed explanation-3: -At least 60-90 g of carbohydrates should be consumed within 15-30 minutes after exercise to maximize muscle glycogen stores. Ideal foods include pasta, sandwiches, yogurt, crackers, bagels, granola bars, or, if preferred, a sports drink.
