CONCLUSIONS<br />

Intensity of exercise<br />

(>50%) affects<br />

magnitude and duration<br />

of EPOC. Duration of<br />

exercise only affects<br />

duration of EPOC<br />

Exercise duration<br />

significantly affects<br />

EPOC<br />

Duration of exercise<br />

has a greater effect on<br />

EPOC than intensity<br />

The magnitude of<br />

EPOC was greater after<br />

high-intensity exercise<br />

compared to isocaloric<br />

moderate or low-<br />

intensity exercise<br />

Large inter-individual<br />

variation, no significant<br />

differences between the<br />

two resistance training<br />

protocols
