Abstract

To determine the underlying mechanisms after one session of (intense) whole-body electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) on total energy expenditure (TEE) and resting metabolic rate (RMR), 16 subjects followed a standardized protocol of indirect calorimetry for up to 72h in 12h intervals. The single session significantly increased RMR about 25±10% (p<0.001) and TEE for about 9.5±1%, a net effect of ~460±50 kcal (WB-EMS vs. CG).
