    QUOTE: "The afterburn effect IS true - you do burn more calories when your body is at rest (your BMR), BUT, I have also read that these kinds of workouts can really exhaust a person and so you are actually LESS active in the long run (like over the next few days) while your body recovers, so you technically LOWERING the BMR because you aren't moving as much as you normally do. So that really only applies of you go about your normal activities."
