The ATP-phosphocreatine system rapidly generates ATP by phosphorylating ADP using stored phosphocreatine, but PCr stores are quickly depleted and the process is alactic.
The ATP-phosphocreatine system generates ATP rapidly by transferring phosphate from phosphocreatine to ADP. PCr stores are limited and deplete quickly, and this process is alactic.

| Back | ATP made by phosphorylating ADP by addding phosphate taken from phosphocreatine PCr stored inside cells and generates ATP very quickly PCr runs out quickly alactic process |
