The body utilizes ATP adenosine triphosphate that is stored in the muscles to perform anaerobic exercises. ATP is a molecule that stores and releases energy for various cellular processes, including muscle contraction. During short bursts of intense activity, such as weightlifting or sprinting, the muscles rely on stored ATP for energy. If the demand for energy continues, other energy sources like creatine phosphate and glycolysis (breaking down glucose) also contribute to ATP production during anaerobic exercises.
