What action has been shown to have the greatest impact on EPOC?
  1. Higher intensity training sessions
  2. Splitting the training session into multiple sessions
  3. Maximizing the oxygen consumption necessary for the duration of the session
  4. Maximizing caloric expenditure during the training session
Explanation
Answer - B - Splitting the training session into multiple sessions has been shown to have the greatest impact on EPOC. Logically, this would be due to the fact that elevating the body’s caloric burn rate and thus, the EPOC, twice during one day will burn more calories than doing it once, even for equal total amounts of time.
