Ketonix — exercise

How the body's energy systems interact with different types of exercise and states of adaptation, particularly in the context of ketosis and glycogen usage.  Cortisol and Glycogen Release During Stress: When the body is under stress (e.g., during intense exercise or a fight-or-flight situation), cortisol levels rise, and glycogen is rapidly converted into glucose to provide quick energy for muscles. This mechanism is essential for survival, allowing quick bursts of energy when needed. Anaerobic Exercise and Glucose: Anaerobic exercise, such as sprinting or lifting weights, relies heavily on glucose as a primary fuel because it requires quick, explosive energy. This...
