Study Summary

To determine if modalities designed to improve blood flow combined with post-exercise nutrient intake will improve replenishment of muscle glycogen better than nutrient intake alone. A secondary objective is to compare the effectiveness of heat therapy and intermittent pneumatic compression on glycogen replenishment.

Primary Outcome

Leg skeletal muscle glycogen level assessment using assay kit

Interventions

  • DEVICE Heat therapy
  • PROCEDURE Skeletal muscle biopsy
  • DEVICE Compression sleeve
  • OTHER Glycogen-depleting exercise session
  • OTHER Nutrient Intake (beverage)
