Korte beschrijving/Annotatie

Every distance runner has heard of "the wall," the point in a race where legs grow heavy, pace collapses, and finishing suddenly feels uncertain.

Tekst achterflap

Every distance runner has heard of "the wall," the point in a race where legs grow heavy, pace collapses, and finishing suddenly feels uncertain. This book explains the physiological process behind that experience: how the body stores and uses glycogen, why those reserves run out, and what happens when they do. You will learn how glycogen depletion affects muscle function and concentration, how training and nutrition influence your glycogen stores, and which pacing and fueling strategies can help you delay or avoid hitting the wall. The book also looks at common misconceptions about carbohydrate loading and race-day nutrition. This is an AI-generated book, created to offer you a clear, accessible introduction to the science behind glycogen depletion, giving you a solid foundation for understanding your own training and racing.
