Endurance exercise, but not resistance exercise, significantly enhances the phosphorylation of proteins responsible for glucose transport (AS160) and glycogen synthesis (Glycogen Synthase) during the early recovery period.
If you are trying to improve how your muscles handle glucose or replenish glycogen stores after a workout, endurance exercise is the more effective stimulus in the immediate recovery period. Resistance training, while great for muscle structure, does not trigger these specific glucose-handling signals as strongly in the first hour.
Conversely, enhanced phosphorylation status of proteins that promote glucose transport and glycogen synthesis only occurred after endurance exercise.
Why this rating
Clear divergence in results between groups with statistical significance (P<0.05) for specific markers.
