  • Title: The effects of swimming and running regimens on skeletal muscle glycogen in the rat.
    Author: Ness GW, Gardiner PF, Secord DC, Taylor AW.
    Journal: Rev Can Biol; 1975; 34(1-2):45-50. PubMed ID: 1178940.
    Abstract:
    Endurance capacity and the effects of different post-exercise states on skeletal muscle glycogen have been studied in rats trained by swimming or running and in sedentary controls. Regular endurance exercise resulted in increased skeletal muscle glycogen stores. A greater depletion was observed in trained animals than in non-trained animals after a training bout or exhaustive exercise. While muscle glycogen levels did not reflect a differential training stimulus (running vs swimming), swimming as a measure of exhaustive exercise was deemed invalid because of the ability of trained swimmers to avoid stenuous exercise by an alteration of swimming pattern.
