Resistance training compared to steady- state aerobic exercise, produces ______EPOC.

Question

Resistance training compared to steady- state aerobic exercise, produces  ______EPOC.

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

When comparing resistance training to steady-state aerobic exercise, several factors influence EPOC magnitude...
Option 1: 'significantly less' would imply that resistance training creates a smaller afterburn effect, which contradicts evidence showing higher metabolic disturbance after resistance work due to muscle damage, lactate clearance, and replenishment of phosphagen stores.
Option 2: 'slightly greater' suggests only a minor uptick in post-exercise oxygen consumption; however, the overall homeostatic disturbances from resistance training (e.g., higher lactate, greater hormonal response, and muscle repair processes) typically produce a more substantial EPOC than steady cardio, often described as significantly greater.
Option 3: 'significantly greater' correctly reflects the general finding that anaerobic or resistance sessions elicit a larger EPOC than continuous, moderate-intensity aerobic bouts because of greater energy system recovery and anabolic repair requirements.
Option 4: 'equal' would claim both modalities produce the same post-exercise oxygen cost, which is not supported since resistance exercise induces additional metabolic processes not as prominent in steady aerobic work.
