Episode 174 - Review of Hokken et al. (2020) Glycogen use in strength training
Update: 2022-01-17
Description
In this journal paper review episode, we discuss the findings of Hokken et al. (2020), who investigated the subcellular localisation and fibre type-dependent utilisation of glycogen in response to an ecologically valid strength training session (4 sets of 5 back squat and deficit deadlift at ~75% of 1RM, followed by 4 sets of 12 rear foot elevated split squats at ~65% of 1RM).
If you've ever heard statements like "high volume strength training only decreases muscle glycogen by 30%", whilst technically not wrong, there is more nuance to the discussion, with some potential considerations for how you should approach your nutrition to support your training. We outline these considerations in the episode.
