How do your muscles continue to get enough energy during high levels of activity when there is not enough oxygen?

Your muscle cell break down energy from food turning it into the process of respiration.
Respiration is when the body turn carbon dioxide into oxygen
Edit-
Oxygen is used to create ATP in the muscle cell site, however it is still possible to create ATP without oxygen. this is called Anaerobic glycolysis and is when energy from glucose (sugar) is broken down without the presence of oxygen. the byproduct of this reaction is lactic acid and causes the muscles to retard and tighten up.

How do muscles get energy during high levels of activity?
Fermentation
How do your muscles continue to get energy during high levels of activitywhen there is not enough oxygen?
Glucose
How do your muscles continue to get energy during high levels of activivty when there is not enough oxygen?
I think it's because of a process called fermentation
Is fat the favored fuel during short high-intensity activity?
Yes. Fat is a good energy source for muscles during almost any exercise. It's easily converted into energy.
What type of energy is created by muscle activity?
Kinetic energy is produced. The energy your muscles use is chemical energy, which is gotten by food. The muscles do an action, therefore giving off kinetic energy.

Chemical energy can be changed into kinetic energy during a?
during a (n) activity
How do your muscles continue to get energy when you lack oxygen?
by eating good food and rest.
In muscles chemical energy changes to what during contraction?
Muscles turn chemical energy into heat and work during contraction. Straight from the science book.
Why do muscles need more energy when you exercise?
When you exercise you use your muscles and your muscles contain Glycogen which could be considered your "energy source". during exercise your muscles use glycogen depleting your energy levels making you feel tired.
What is the main energy source during starvation?
protein....muscles.
