I believe it is the ATP/CP system (adenosine triphosphate/ creatine phospahte) and towards the end they go into their lactic acid system because the first system only lasts for up to 8 seconds-ish. Sorry if I've got something wrong but that's what i think it is, i remember it vaguely from GCSE. Hope this help :)

What happens to your body when you play sports?
So imagine that you start running. Here's what happens: * The muscle cells burn off the ATP they have floating around in about 3 seconds. * The phosphagen system kicks in and supplies energy for 8 to 10 seconds. This would be the major energy system used by the muscles of a 100-meter sprinter or weight lifter, where rapid acceleration, short-duration exercise occurs. * If exercise continues longer, then the glycogen-lactic acid system kicks in. This would be true for short-distance exercises such as a 200- or 400-meter dash or 100-meter swim. * Finally, if exercise continues, then aerobic respiration takes over. This would occur in endurance events such as an 800-meter dash, marathon run, rowing, cross-country skiing and distance skating.
