Calcium ions
The structure within skeletal muscle cells responsible for calcium storage is the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It stores and releases calcium ions, which are crucial for muscle contraction and relaxation. When a muscle cell receives a signal to contract, calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, allowing the muscle to shorten and generate force.
During the latent period of muscle contraction Ca++ is being released from the sacroplasmic reticulum and filament movement is taking up slack. This takes approx. 2 milliseconds.

ATP is a substance that stores energy released by mitochondria.
Calcium ions are normally stored in the terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum in muscle cells. When muscle contraction is initiated, these stored calcium ions are released into the cytoplasm, triggering muscle contraction.
Calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum inside the muscle cell when a nerve signal triggers the release of calcium ions. This calcium binds to troponin on the actin filaments, which activates the contraction process in the muscle cell.

Calcium ions are stored in the endoplasmic reticulum of cells, as well as in specialized organelles called the sarcoplasmic reticulum in muscle cells. When needed, these ions can be released into the cytoplasm to carry out various cellular functions.
The organelle that stores calcium in resting muscle cells is the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Calcium ions are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum during muscle contraction to trigger muscle activity.
