Detailed explanation-1: -Aerobic glycolysis has a slow rate of ATP production and is predominantly utilized during longer-duration, lower-intensity activities after the phosphagen and anaerobic systems have fatigued. It is important to remember that all three of these systems contribute to the energy needs of the body during physical activity.
Detailed explanation-2: -Peak rate of ATP production (peak power) Aerobic mechanism is the slowest mechanism. Anaerobic glycolysis is faster than aerobic glycolysis.
Detailed explanation-3: -The oxidative system is slow, but is also the most efficient. Using fat as its primary energy substrate, it produces enough ATP to sustain longer duration activities, but only at submaximal exercise output.
