Several factors may alter apparent resting metabolic rate (RMR) during measurement with
indirect calorimetry. Likewise, numerous indirect calorimetry measurement protocols have …

In the recovery period after exercise there is an increase in oxygen uptake termed the
'excess post-exercise oxygen consumption'(EPOC), consisting of a rapid and a prolonged …

The direct effects of physical activity interventions on energy expenditure are relatively small
when placed in the context of total daily energy demands. Hence, the suggestion has been …

The incidence of obesity is increasing rapidly. Research efforts for effective treatment
strategies still focus on diet and exercise programmes, the individual components of which …

Recovery from a bout of exercise is associated with an elevation in metabolism referred to
as the excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC). A number of investigators in the …

Background The need to control for the potential influence of menstrual cycle phase on
resting metabolism (RMR) places a burden on research participants who must self-report …

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of different rest interval (RI) lengths on
metabolic responses to the bench press. Eight resistance-trained men performed 10 …

Optimal carbohydrate and protein intakes are vital for modulating training adaptation,
recovery, and exercise performance. However, the research base underpinning …

Background The benefits of exercise are well established but one major barrier for many is
time. It has been proposed that short period resistance training (RT) could play a role in …

Osteoarthritis (OA) has long been viewed as a degenerative disease of cartilage, but
accumulating evidence indicates that inflammation has a critical role in its pathogenesis. In …
