Alma is using ATC-PC which is a quick fuel source. Which is the first energy used in short and quick uses of energy. While it gives the max energy at first, after about 10 seconds it runs out. Which then short term energy starts. Which uses carbs as energy. This gets to max energy after a little bit and after a few minutes, it starts to run out. Then long term energy kicks in. This uses oxygen to provide energy, while it lasts for a long time, it takes time to reach max energy. This can also fail if your respiratory system or cardiovascular system can't provide enough oxygen.
