What is EPOC?
Excess post-exercise Oxygen Consumption
Eccess post-exercise Oxygen Consumption
Access post-exercise Oxygen Consumption
Excess Exercise Oxygen Consumption
When EPOC occurs breathing remains elevated, why is this?
Allows the breakdown of lactic acid to carbon dioxide and water
Allows ATP, phosphocreatine and glycogen can be replenished
Allows Oxygen can be paid back to haemoglobin and myoglobin
