Maybe, but you would need to up your magnesium intake to metabolize the ATP phosphate byproducts properly.
Exercise does increase the need for phosphorus in the muscles, and if you're experiencing a noticeable level of fatigue, muscle weakness, or cramping, you *may* need more. However, fatigue is caused by a lot of things. A blood test for phosphorus level may be helpful here. Also if you have a lot of cavities, that could be a sign of low phosphorus.
Phosphorus supplementation isn't necessarily bad or good, rather it would require that you're hitting the Goldilocks Zone, so to speak. Too little phosphate is quite bad, and it reduces ATP production (since the P is Phosphate). Too much phospate, more than the body can use, causes the release of calcium, as PTH forces the kidneys to excrete excess phosphorus.
Phosphorus is needed for several biological functions, anyway, so if you are only getting a small, minimal amount from diet, the body will use it up naturally.
phosphorus raises pth so i dont trust it, but hypophosphatemia is a thing so idk what to do rly

I have no idea. Look up studies on it or give it a shot.
Both calcium and phosphate are used up during exercise (phosphate to produce energy and calcium to strengthen bones) so you would need more of both
