The 3 main sources of energy in your body are fatty acids, sugars and protein (disregarding alcohol).

During starvation, utilisation of fatty acids from intracellular lipid droplets is increased, and autophagy mediated.[1] Not just daily exercise increases llipolysis in general [2], but also acute exercise increases lipolysis, specifically in the liver, accompanied by increased serum levels of free fatty acid, glycerol and ketone body.[3]
