If you are sprinting because of the increase in EPOC, you are a fool. Those of you have been following the SuppVersity for quite some time, now, will be familiar of the term “EPOC”, which refers to the amount of oxgen that is consumed in excess in the post-exercise – or, in order not to overcomplicate things, the excess post-exercise oxygen consumption, or, even simpler the amount of energy your burn after a workout because your mitochondria area “still on fire”.Assuming that you have read those of the >1250 hitherto published SuppVersity Articles that were dealing with this issue you may remember that I have repeatedly pointed out that…… the contribution of the actual energy consumption that is caused by the “EPOC effect” would be absolutely irrelevant, if the calories in vs. calories out equation was as simple as mainstream dietitians and lifestlye magazine authors still like to present it to their clients and readers.Now you know better than that, so that I don’t have to tell you why I do even care about the results of of a recent study from the Universities of Central & West Florida (Townsend. 2013).
