Mitochondria are the power - houses of the cell. They perform cellular respiration, breaking down glucose to release energy (in the form of ATP) and carbon dioxide. Elite athletes need a large amount of energy for their high - intensity physical activities, and mitochondria are responsible for producing this energy, so they are more prevalent in the muscle cells of elite athletes.
