Abstract

Glycogen depletion was followed in the soleus, gastrocnemius, and vastus lateralis muscles of 3 men during 2 h of treadmill running on the level and uphill (+6 o). One subject also ran downhill (‐4.5 o). Running speed was adjusted in each condition to require 75% of the subjects' Vo 2 max. Glycogen concentrations were similar in all 3 muscles at rest. From PAS staining glycogen appeared to be evenly distributed between slow and fast twitch fibres. A glycogen depletion of 17, 33, and 44 mmol of glucose units X kg‐1 wet weight occurred in the vastus lateralis, soleus, and gastrocnemius muscles, respectively, after running on the level. These values were 55, 46, and 60 mmol X kg‐1, respectively, after uphill running. Glycogen depletion in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles after downhill running was similar to that after running on the level, however, in the vastus lateralis it was intermediate to that for uphill and level running. A loss of PAS stain was observed first in the slow twitch fibres in all conditions. The results support the concept of a differential involvement of the leg muscles during running which can be modified by running either uphill or downhill. Thus it is of importance for the representativity of a sample that it is taken from a particular muscle when the local response to exercise or physical training is studied.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
