Amino acid metabolism during exercise and recovery in human subjects

The depletion of muscle and liver glycogen observed during prolonged submaximal exercise is associated with fatigue. Re-synthesis of glycogen stores during the recovery period after exercise is therefore essential for the recovery of endurance exercise capacity. In recent years, attention has focuss...
