Mean performance time, power output, aerobic and anaerobic power output, and integrated electromyographic activity during the 4-km cycling time trial in the control and reduced muscle glycogen conditions.
Figure 1.
Mean and SEM for power output during the 4-km cycling time trial in the control (CONT) and reduced muscle glycogen conditions.
EX-FIB I and EX-FIB II: time trial performed after a type I or type II muscle fibers glycogen-lowering exercise protocol, respectively. * CONT significantly higher than EX-FIB I for the same interval (P<0.05).

EX-FIB I and EX-FIB II: time trial performed after a type I or type II muscle fibers glycogen-lowering exercise protocol, respectively. (A) * Significantly main effect of condition (P<0.05).
