Effects of Pre-exercise Muscle Glycogen Status on Muscle Phosphagens, Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Function, and Performance During Intermittent High Intensity Exercise

Eight competitive cyclists performed two cycling trials, one following a high carbohydrate diet (H-CHO) and the other following a low carbohydrate diet (L-CHO).
