Mauro Prosperi was a police officer and resistance runner, Prosperi took part in 1994 at the Marathon des Sables, an ultramarathon held in Morocco, then lost his way due to a sand storm, and remained several hours without eating or drinking.

Stress and contraction muscle converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is essential for muscle contraction; the problem is that the stock of ATP must be constantly renewed as it is weak and largely solicited by effort.

In an endurance sport (as Mauro practiced), the recycling of ADP into ATP is mainly through cellular respiration and it is the type I fibers that intervene, which allowed it to survive and maintain its energy capital.

The chemical effect of the endocrine system is longer lasting than the chemical effect of the nervous system.

Alex17521 [72]

This is true. The nervous system produces chemicals that affect our body at a rapid pace and the effects are usually short term and are designed for situations that are out of the ordinary. The endocrine system works slower and in the long run and there's not that much rapid effect that happens in stressful situations that the endocrine system solves or resolves. The hormones produced by the endocrine system are a constant that keeps being produced and they balance our body functions.
