Energy balance
Twenty-four-hour energy expenditure (EE) on the resistance exercise (REX) day was 2,328 +/- 327 kcal.d(-1), which is greater than the control day (CON) at 2,001 +/- 369 kcal.d(-1), p < 0.001.
Resistance exercise significantly increases total daily energy expenditure in women.

Twenty-four-hour energy expenditure (EE) on the REX day (mean +/- SD, 2,328 +/- 327 kcal.d(-1)) was greater than CON (2,001 +/- 369 kcal.d(-1), p < 0.001).
Why this rating
The study design involved direct measurement of energy expenditure in a controlled environment.
