Abstract
The aim of the research was to examine the effect of glycogen mobilization over 48 hours within the glycolytic system on the performance of a 1500-meter run, as well as its impact on blood sugar levels and hydrogen ion concentration (pH). The experimental study was conducted on a sample of 20 students divided into an experimental group and a control group. The glycogen mobilization protocol was applied to the experimental group, resulting in a 5% improvement with an average time enhancement of 2.6 seconds, while the control group showed no change in performance time. Blood sugar levels in the experimental group averaged 96 mg/dL with a standard deviation of 10.71, compared to 73 mg/dL with a standard deviation of 10.17 in the control group. The hydrogen ion concentration (pH) for the experimental group was 7.20 (±0.103), whereas it decreased to 7.08 (±0.020) in the control group. The conclusions were that glycogen mobilization over 48 hours improved 1500m run performance, reduced the decline in pH levels, and helped maintain blood sugar levels. It is recommended to use this protocol for athletes experiencing fatigue and difficulty sustaining high-intensity effort, to apply it during peak training and pre-competition phases, and to expand research on glycogen mobilization given its proven effectiveness as the first applied study in sports science.
