Twenty-four-hour carbohydrate oxidation was elevated on the REX day, while 24-hour fat and protein oxidation were not different.
Resistance exercise increases carbohydrate oxidation without affecting fat or protein oxidation in women.

- 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.Strong
- The net increase in energy expenditure during and immediately after exercise represented 76 +/- 12% of the total increase in 24-hour EE.Strong
