Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -This system allows the body to work in a steady state – the muscles work below maximal effort and keep this going for a long period of time. Carbon dioxide and water are produced as by-products.
Detailed explanation-2: -Creatine is transported into the muscle cell by a specific transporter, resulting in increased intracellular creatine and PCr. The PCr is capable of acting as an energy buffer, protecting the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentration. Maintaining muscle nucleotides therefore enhances exercise performance and recovery.
