Muscles burn calories or sugar. When you workout the energy you ingested by means of meals are burnt to fuel the muscular movements part of the workout. When you continue to workout regularly, when you need extra energy to feed your muscles, your body transforms a part of the fat deposited under your skin in various parts of your body into sugar and uses it to power itself.
So a good workout burns both sugar and fat.

Resting skeletal muscles use glucose as a preferred energy source?
Resting skeletal muscles burn glucose for energy. Although fat can also be used as an energy source, if glucose is present, muscles will use glucose first.
What tissue uses glucose from blood to burn fat?
Insulin
What is a main reason that heart rate go up when exercising?

How do you burn glucose and fat at the same time?
Glucose is a type of sugar, it takes a certain amount of energy (calories) to use up that sugar. so you eat 100 calories of glucose then exercise. While exercising you use (burn) 200 calories, you have now burned 100 calories of glucose and 100 calories of fat. any unused glucose is stored in the body as fat.
What occurs when you continue to breathe hard once you stop exercising?
when you exercise you body burns fat and sugar, in order to burn fat it requires oxygen. the faster you work out the more oxygen your body needs to burn the fat in your blood. When you are breathing hard, you are not getting enough oxygen and you system starts to burn more sugar. The fat will not be properly burned in the muscles. When you stop exercising your body will still attempt to replace the oxygen in your blood stream until it normalizes. The harder you are breathing thats a sign that you are lacking oxygen to the muscles.
Why do muscles use less oxygen during exercise?
They should use more oxygen your muscles burn either sugar or fat, it doesnt need oxygen to burn sugar, but the by product of burning sigar is lactic acid or pruvic acid, anyway it makes your muscles ache. if you are exercising and breathing hard, then you are burning sugars. to burn fat your muscles need oxygen. The harder you work the more ogygen is required.
What is a property of wood?
It is combustible. Being made primarily of Glucose sugar, put a match to it, add oxygen and it'll burn.
Why do glucose and oxygen help us exercise?
Glucose is a sugar (made by plants using the energy contained in light form the Sun) and eaten by animals (including humans). We need this energy to live and to power our muscles when we move. To get the energy out of the sugar we must "burn" it in our bodies. Burning needs Oxygen (O2) which we breath in from the air, using our lungs while at the same time breathing out the CO2 produced in our bodies by the burning of the glucose. Thus we are actually "powered" by sunshine! isn't that amazing!
Does photosynethiesis make energy or sugars to burn fo energy?
reproduction makes sugar (glucose) which turns into energy. the word equation for reproduction is:water + oxygen → carbohydrates + glucose + ENERGY
What is a chemical property of wood?
It is combustible. Being made primarily of Glucose sugar, put a match to it, add oxygen and it'll burn.
Are muscle aches and oxygen lack in blood connected?
Yes. When Muscles are overworked or two focused, they loose a sufficient oxygen supply to burn fat, so they must burn only sugar in anaerobic metabolism, and thereby producing Lactic Acid that causes the aching and burning feeling.
