    Glycogen is one of the primary replenishments after exercise. Glycogen is considered essential to training at levels needed for muscle hypertrophy, responsible for as much as 80% of ATP production during workouts. [2] Due to such involvement of glycogen in the body during training, it is suggested that we replenish these levels after training.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_post-exercise...

    Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC, informally called afterburn) is a measurably increased rate of oxygen intake following strenuous activity.In historical contexts the term "oxygen debt" was popularized to explain or perhaps attempt to quantify anaerobic energy expenditure, particularly as regards lactic acid/lactate metabolism; [1] in fact, the term "oxygen debt" is still widely ...

    In all athletic programs, three features should be present: (1) emphasizing prolonged lower-intensity exercise, as opposed to repetitive max intensity exercises; (2) adequate rest periods and a high-carbohydrate diet, to replenish glycogen stores; and (3) proper hydration, to enhance renal clearance of myoglobin.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cori_cycle

    Cori cycle. The Cori cycle (also known as the lactic acid cycle), named after its discoverers, Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori, [1] is a metabolic pathway in which lactate, produced by anaerobic glycolysis in muscles, is transported to the liver and converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is cyclically metabolized back to lactate.

  9. Aerobic exercise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobic_exercise

    The two main fuel sources for aerobic exercise in the body include fat (in the form of adipose tissue) and glycogen. At lower intensity aerobic exercise, the body preferentially uses fat as its main fuel source for cellular respiration , however as intensity increases the body preferentially uses glycogen stored in the muscles and liver or ...
