To determine the underlying mechanisms after 1 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 72 h in 12-h intervals. The single session significantly increased RMR by approximately 25%±10%(p< 0.001) and TEE by approximately 9.5%±1%, a net effect of∼ 460±50 kcal (WB-EMS vs. control group).
