Abstract
Summary
The extent of glycogenesis during exercise and the pattern of glycogen recovery following exercise is similar in trained and untrained rats. However, the maximum value reached during recovery is significantly higher in the trained group. A supercompensation of skeletal muscle glycogen was not observed during this same period. The degree of glycogenesis during a fast is the same in trained and untrained rats and in both groups is enhanced if the fast is begun following a bout of exercise.
