Glycogen stored in the muscle | 300-800g |
Addition of protein is vital post exercise | False |
Fuel from outside of the body | Exogenous |

Delaying carbohydrate consumation 2 hours after exercise... | only restores 45% of glycogen |
Exogenous carbohydrate absorption is limited to... | 60g/hour |
Ideal CHO-E concentration | 6% |
Define: synthesis | Building |
Enzyme that speeds up glycogen production | Glycogen Synthase |
