Energy balance
In men, resistance exercise has a similar effect on 24-h energy expenditure (EE) as a comparable bout of aerobic exercise.
Both resistance and aerobic exercises can be used interchangeably for managing energy expenditure.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
In men, resistance exercise has a similar effect on 24-h EE and macronutrient oxidation as a comparable bout of aerobic exercise.
