Glycogen is the storage form of glucose found in the liver and muscles... and the glucose is the fuel for the body...

Now, after you have finished exercise there is no immediate need for glucose... what is needed is proteins that will be eventually sent to the liver to manufacture more glucose and glycogen...

So the best thing to absorb after a workout is proteins... and that should in no way impede the growth hormones...
