The process of breaking down a six carbon molecule into two three carbon molecules for oxidation is explained.

The process of energy production from fatty acids requires oxygen to transport it through capillaries and exchange through tissues, which can take up a considerable amount of time, thereby making the energy production process slower.

Energy Production
Summary

The process of energy production from fatty acids requires oxygen to transport it through capillaries and exchange through tissues, which can take up a considerable amount of time, thereby making the energy production process slower. Therefore, if you need energy production faster, it is not feasible to wait for oxygen to transport it, which means that the carbon backbone of fatty acids is used for energy production instead.

The process of breaking a six carbon molecule into two separate three carbon molecules begins with the glycogen stored within the muscle fiber, which will then go into the mitochondria and through the Krebs cycle.
