We examined the effects of graded muscle glycogen on exercise capacity and modulation of skeletal muscle signaling pathways associated with the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis. In a repeated-measures design, eight men completed a sleep-low, train-low model comprising an evening glycogen-depleting cycling protocol followed by an exhaustive exercise capacity test [8 × 3 min at 80% peak power output (PPO), followed by 1-min efforts at 80% PPO until exhaustion] the subsequent morning. After glycogen-depleting exercise, subjects ingested a total of 0 g/kg (L-CHO), 3.6 g/kg (M-CHO), or 7.6 g/kg (H-CHO) of carbohydrate (CHO) during a 6-h period before sleeping, such that exercise was commenced the next morning with graded ( P &lt; 0.05) muscle glycogen concentrations (means ± SD: L-CHO: 88 ± 43, M-CHO: 185 ± 62, H-CHO: 278 ± 47 mmol/kg dry wt). Despite differences ( P &lt; 0.05) in exercise capacity at 80% PPO between trials (L-CHO: 18 ± 7, M-CHO: 36 ± 3, H-CHO: 44 ± 9 min), exercise induced comparable AMPK Thr172  phosphorylation (~4-fold) and PGC-1α mRNA expression (~5-fold) after exercise and 3 h after exercise, respectively. In contrast, neither exercise nor CHO availability affected the phosphorylation of p38MAPK Thr180/Tyr182  or CaMKII Thr268  or mRNA expression of p53, Tfam, CPT-1, CD36, or PDK4. Data demonstrate that when exercise is commenced with muscle glycogen &lt; 300 mmol/kg dry wt, further graded reductions of 100 mmol/kg dry weight impair exercise capacity but do not augment skeletal muscle cell signaling.    NEW &amp; NOTEWORTHY We provide novel data demonstrating that when exercise is commenced with muscle glycogen below 300 mmol/kg dry wt (as achieved with the sleep-low, train-low model) further graded reductions in preexercise muscle glycogen of 100 mmol/kg dry wt reduce exercise capacity at 80% peak power output by 20–50% but do not augment skeletal muscle cell signaling.
