Document Summary

Events < 90min: extra water weight, bloating. Events > 90 min: postpone time to fatigue by 20, improves time to go a set distance by 2-3% Continue until 500g ingested or a large, high-carb meal is consumed. Moderate to high glycemic index cho are more effective in regenerating glycogen stores than low gi. Glycogen stores replenish at a rate of ~ 5-7%/ hour. Theory: if you put more fat in the body it will spare the glycogen. Time trials high carb = high fat. Greatest benefit of high carb diet in untrained. High fat diets better tolerated in trained athletes. 90% stored in skeletal muscle (60% as pcr) 70% of people will increase creatine stores with supplementation (20g/day) Aid in high intensity activities ,30 sec: power/strength (5-15%, single (1-5%) and repetitive (5-15%) sprint performance, jumping, cycling, but not running. Improve mean power by 2% in high-intensity races. May also help with power and resistance training (60-180 sec)
