    EPOC stands for..
    Excess Post Oxygen Consumption
    Excess Post Exercise Oxygen Consumption
    Excess Post Oxygen Consolidation
    30s
  • Q2
    What is the purpose of EPOC?
    to heal the body
    To return the body to its pre exercise state
    To make the body rest
    30s
  • Q3
    EPOC has two components - which is the fast one?
    Ventilation
    Lactacid component
    Alactacid component
    Circulation
    30s
  • Q4
    The volume of oxygen that would have been required to complete an activity entirely aerobically, is known as...
    Oxygen Deficit
    Oxygen Recovery
    Oxygen Debt
    30s
  • Q5
    EPOC is ALWAYS present regardless of the intensity of exercise.... True or False?
    True
    False
    30s
  • Q6
    There is a smaller oxygen deficit during low intensity aerobic work.. why is this?
    Oxygen is supplied but doesn't meet demand
    steady state oxygen consumption is met
    The demand is greater than that given by Oxygen.

  • Q14
    How many L of oxygen are required during the slow lactacid stage of recovery?
