question on glycogen loader

["Steph Teeter" <steph@endurance.net>]

Tom - what's the latest on the use of GL, or AGL in the UAE competitions? I
don't want to start any carbo charge wars, I just want to know if it has
become standard practice to dose carbohydrates at regular intervals in the
high speed, long distance events. I personally haven't used it yet at the
rates/dosages that seem to be recommended. I don't use it on Khruschev
because he has never wanted for energy, and my primary concern with him is
body mass & heat dissipation. I suspect it would have more benefit for the
greyhound type of horse - leaner muscled, less  apt to over-heat. ?
