Answer:

While skeletal muscle contains glycogen at much lower concentration than the liver, its much larger overall mass means that the absolute amount of glycogen stored there is approximately twice higher than in the liver. The contribution of muscle glycogen to glucose homeostasis is less well understood.

However, humans do not show major decrease in muscle glycogen content during fasting
