Abstract
Physical activity and nutrition are the most important factors in preserving and/or improving health conditions. The relationship between exercise and nutrition is focused on two different directions: one is the direction toward health promoting, the other is for performance of a long heavy muscular work. For preserving and/or promoting health conditions, energy balance between intake and expenditure must be taken into account. The amount of glycogen stored in muscles is the essential factor to promote a long distance performance of working muscles. Topics that influence the energy balance and glycogen loading used by endurance athletes to improve performance are reviewed.
