Here's a study that says it's bull.

Someone forgot to do their research.

EPOC.

The EPOC effect is greatest soon after the exercise is completed and decays to a lesser level over time. One experiment found EPOC increasing metabolic rate to an excess level that decays to 13% 3 hours after exercise, and 4% after 16 hours. Another study, specifically designed to test if the effect existed for more than 16 hours, conducted tests for 48 hours after the conclusion of the exercise and found measurable effect existed up to the 38 hour post-exercise measurement.

Anyone who has played hockey, or done anykind of HIIT exercise knows exactly what I'm talking about.
