To examine the excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) response following about of heavy resistance exercise (HRE), seven healthy males (age = 22 f 3 yr; height =177 -+ 8 cm; mass = 83 f 10 kg, percent body fat = 10.4 f 4.2%) who weight trainedrecreationaly, engaged in a 31-minute bout of HRE. The bout consisted of four circuitsof bench press, power cleans, and squats, selected to recruit most major muscle groups.Each set was performed using the subject;;s predetmnined ten-repetition maximum andcontinued until failure. Each set was followed by a two-minute rest interval. Oxygenconsumption (Va)m measurements were obtained at regular intervals throughout the day,before and after HRE (34 h pm, 29 h pre, 24 h pre, 10 h pre, 5 h pre, immediate post, 14 hpost, 19 h post, 24 h post, 38 h post, 43 h post, 48 h post). Postexercise V02measurements were compared to the baseline measurements that corresponded with thesame time of day. A repeated measures ANOVA revealed that EPOC was significantlyelevated @ 5 0.05) immediately, 14.19, and 38 hours post-exercise. Mean daily V qvalues for both post-exercise days were also significantly elevated above the baselineday. These results suggest that EPOC duration and magnitude following HRE mayexceed the EPOC produced by following moderate aerobic exercise. Furthermore, thecumulative energy expenditure as a result of EPOC following HRE may exceed thecombined total energy expended during and after aerobic exercise
