This review suggests that there is little or no effect of elevating pre-exercise muscle glycogen
contents above normal resting values on a single exhaustive bout of high-intensity exercise …

A key goal of pre-exercise nutritional strategies is to maximize carbohydrate stores, thereby
minimizing the ergolytic effects of carbohydrate depletion. Increased dietary carbohydrate …

The effect of the glycemic index (GI) of postexercise carbohydrate intake on muscle
glycogen storage was investigated. Five well-trained cyclists undertook an exercise trial to …

Proper nutrition is critical for optimal physical performance. A person's diet must contain
adequate amounts of various nutrients which are used to regenerate bodily tissue and …

We examined neuromuscular activity during stochastic (variable intensity) 100-km cycling
time trials (TT) and the effect of dietary carbohydrate manipulation. Seven endurance-trained …

Purpose The aim of this audit was to assess the representation of female athletes within the
literature that has led to current guidelines for carbohydrate (CHO) intake in the acute …

We reported previously that intake of carbohydrate foods with a high glycemic index (GI)
produced greater glycogen storage and greater postprandial glucose and insulin responses …

Physical activity in the form of exercise requires the metabolism of bodily fuel reserves to
provide energy for muscle contraction. Under normal circumstances, very little protein is …
