glycogen replenishment

Glycogen replenishment is the process by which your body restores stored carbohydrate energy in the muscles and liver after exercise or activity. When you eat carbs, your body converts them into glucose, which enters your bloodstream. Some of this glucose is used immediately for energy, while excess glucose is stored as glycogen. During rest or recovery, your body gradually rebuilds these glycogen stores, especially if you consume carbohydrate-rich foods. Proper replenishment ensures your muscles are ready for future activity and helps maintain energy levels, recovery, and overall performance.
