What I meant was that this particular observation has since been deemed
irrelevant. It's been shown that glycogen loading is effective in all
athletes.
>You commented yourself in earlier
discussions that you thought a horse's "body condition score" was
affected by water retention and increased glycogen stores. In fact,
body condition scoring has nothing to do with muscle fitness, but if a
muscle is looking "fuller" due to glycogen stores, I would think it
would be pretty easy to assume a higher level of fitness than may
actually be present. >>
I don't think I mentioned "body condition score" because it is a measurement
I'm not familar with. It also doesn't sound like a very accurate way to
measure fitness.
