Hexokinase 2, glycogen synthase and phosphorylase play a key role in muscle glycogen supercompensation.

<h4>Background</h4>Glycogen-depleting exercise can lead to supercompensation of muscle glycogen stores, but the biochemical mechanisms of this phenomenon are still not completely understood.<h4>Methods</h4>Using chronic low-frequency stimulation (CLFS) as an exercise model, t...
