Glucose + Oxygen = Energy to Contract and produce heat
Glucose: stored in the muscles as glycogen
Oxygen: used to burn glucose into energy
Glucose + O2 = Energy for contraction and heat
Waste Products produced are CO2 and Water
Carbon Dioxide and Water: waste products from the production of energy for muscles
Lactic Acid: causes the “burn” in muscles from a lack of oxygen
(Without O2, glucose breaks down into lactic acid)
