In skeletal muscle, fast - twitch glycolytic fibers use glycogen as the main energy source for anaerobic metabolism, serving to sustain brief periods of high - intensity activity.

A disadvantageous consequence, however, is that the muscles in the limbs must then rely more on anaerobic energy metabolism to keep working, so they build up lactic acid and tire more rapidly than they would from comparable exercise at the surface.

While the aerobic metabolism is more efficient than the anaerobic metabolism (i.e., it produces a higher amount of ATP per mol of substrate), producing energy through anaerobic metabolism can provide a high amount of energy in a very short time period.

The rest interval or active - recovery period during an anaerobic workout allows aerobic metabolism to produce and replace ATP in the involved muscles.

Lactic acid is used by the muscles to form glycogen, which then provides energy in anaerobic metabolism.

If this level is surpassed, the body can not deliver oxygen quickly enough to generate ATP and anaerobic metabolism kicks in again.

Training under low carbohydrate conditions is beneficial in training the body to more readily burn fat, and increasing the threshold where anaerobic metabolism must kick in.

The problem is that at heart rates higher than MAF, energy needs outpace both (1) the breakdown and use of fats for energy and (2) the intake and transport of oxygen, meaning that the body has no choice but to engage anaerobic channels — not of a particular muscle to fuel that particular muscle, but of the muscles across the body as a whole, in order to feed the metabolism's additional energy needs.

When you challenge your metabolism with exercise when you don't have a lot of carbs to use for fuel, two things happen: your athletic output (which, in your case, depended on carbs) drops because you only have fats to burn, and your energy levels also drop because when your fat - burning metabolism gets exhausted, there's no other energy system to pick up the slack: even though the anaerobic (sugar - burning) metabolism isn't exhausted, it doesn't have any fuel to burn.
