Thus, in the early stages of exercise, the energy demand is met by O2 stores within the body and anaerobic energy supply. At the cessation of exercise, metabolism does not immediately return to resting levels; this postexercise period is characterized by excessive postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), also termed the oxygen debt (blue shading 5 oxygen deficit; red shading 5 excessive postexercise oxygen consumption). , 1988). The fast phase is associated with the resaturation of myoglobin and hemoglobin and the replenishment of the high-energy phosphagen pool (CP and ATP).

Current practice is to combine a program of decreased activity with increased CHO consumption a few days before competition to achieve a glycogen load. , 1983; 1985). , 1994; 1995). Although glycogen loading is not recommended in the horse, adequate CHO intake must still be ensured (Hintz, 1994).
