Why do researchers believe there is extra caloric expenditure during the recovery phase following vigorous exercise?
What will be an ideal response?
The metabolic rate remains at a slightly higher level longer after vigorous-intensity exercise, so you continue to burn a few extra calories following exercise. Researchers believe that the extra caloric expenditure following vigorous exercise is because (1) the body uses more fat and less carbohydrate following a hard exercise session, (2) additional energy is required to replenish glycogen stores used during intense exercise, and (3) hormones released during vigorous exercise remain high, maintaining an elevated metabolism for several hours thereafter.
