The glucose goes through the intesine wall, into the blood and is carried around until it reaches the calf muscle cells. Once there it will taken in the cells by carrier proteins which are embedded in the cell membrane (this is because it is not lipid soluable and can't not simply go through the cell membrane like water, oxgen, carbon dioxide etc). The glucose will then be used the mitondria in the cell.
