What happens to my metabolic rate after exercise?

While exercising at any intensity, your metabolic rate increases, but when you stop exercising, your metabolic rate doesn't return to its normal resting rate immediately. In fact, your resting metabolic rate (RMR) remains elevated -- and thus you continue expending calories at a faster than resting rate -- from several minutes to several hours afterward, even though you're at rest. The more intense the activity, the greater this postactivity metabolic boost and the longer it takes for your metabolic rate to return to its resting level.

One study found that after 30 minutes of very vigorous activity, a postexercise metabolic boost lasts as long as 24 hours or more, providing a significant weight-loss advantage.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
