Research Paper Title Effect of Active Warm-up on Metabolism Prior to and During Intense Dynamic Exercise. Purpose This study investigated whether active warm-up (AW) would increase muscle acetylcarnitine concentration before exercise, thereby reducing the reliance on nonoxidative Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) production during subsequent high-intensity exercise. Methods Six female subjects performed a 30-second sprint at 120%… Read More
