Generation

EPOC (Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption), or the "afterburn effect," refers to the increased calorie burning that continues after exercise ends as your body returns to its resting state. This elevated metabolism helps repair muscle tissue, replenish energy stores, and restore normal body temperature. While often overstated in popular fitness marketing, EPOC is most significant after high-intensity or resistance training, contributing modestly to overall daily calorie expenditure.
