Which Burns More Calories? Larger Muscle Groups or Shorter Rest Periods

Most bodybuilders change their major muscle groups weight training for insulation, hammer cardio equipment and machinery, because they reduce calories and get ready for a show. However, new research shows that sticking to basic core exercises to burn more calories. There is evidence that the amount of exercise is an important determinant of the overall oxygen consumption and energy expenditure during resistance training. Several studies have shown that the total oxygen consumption is higher in high-volume exercise protocols against the low volume of exercise, so do not forget to increase the amount of games while preparing for a contest. Most bodybuilders use short rest periods to increase calories burned leading to a contest, but rest periods may not be as important as the choice of exercises for large muscle groups. Researchers from Brazil have conducted four men trained as random protocols (5 sets of 10 repetitions with 15 repetitions maximum with a big leg press charges) and small muscles (chest flye) group exercises, but the rest time various short (one minute) or (three minutes) extended periods of rest. Oxygen consumption increased in all protocols, being higher in the exercise of leg-press on the chest flye, regardless of the recovery period. The remaining intervals of increased consumption of oxygen induces minute accumulated in the leg press, but not for chest flye. The total energy expenditure was mainly influenced by muscle mass. They found that the leg press generates more metabolic activity of the chest flye, whatever the duration of the rest period.
