Glycogen is the form in which the carbohydrate glucose is stored within the body; the skeletal muscles typically contain two-thirds of the body's supply of glycogen at any time, or a quantity measuring approximately 2% of skeletal muscle weight.uscle Glycogen Recovery. Muscle glycogen recovery is the process through which the muscles of the body are replenished with carbohydrate sources that have been depleted through the energy expended in exercise.
Glycogen is the principal storage form of glucose in animal cells. In humans, the most glycogen is found in the liver (10% of the liver mass), whereas muscles only contain a relatively low amount of glycogen (1% of the muscle mass).In addition, small amounts of glycogen are found in certain glial cells in the brain.Sometimes called animal starch for its resemblance with starch found in plants, it is stored in liver and muscle cells and can be converted to glucose if needed.uscle has a much lower amount of glycogen per unit mass of tissue, but since the total mass of muscle is so much greater than that of liver, total glycogen stored in muscle is about twice that of liver. Stores of glycogen in the liver are considered the main buffer of blood glucose levels.
