Neither glycogen depletion nor phosphorylation of relevant signalling proteins showed any difference between conditions of load and repetition duration.
Resistance training outcomes are not influenced by glycogen depletion or signalling protein changes based on load or repetition duration.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
However, neither glycogen depletion (in both type I and type II fibres), nor phosphorylation of relevant signalling proteins showed any difference between conditions.
Why this rating
Based on study design from abstract.
