Liver glycogen and muscle glycogen are seperate entities and are regulated differently, seems common for people to mangle these concepts. Introductory biochem books dont make the distinction clear.
The OP has the right idea....if you are eating low carbs the glucose from protein cannot be stored as liver glycogen but it can be stored as muscle glycogen, your muscle glycogen will just be lower than someone eating high carbs.
