TR kJ/Cal calculation suprisingly low

It’s very difficult to measure post exercise calorie burn in the lab, because subjects have to be willing to spend basically a day in the lab to do the exercise, then proceed with normal living for the duration after.

So there’s not as much studies on this, as say VO2 max.

Here’s one study where post exercise calorie burn over the 14hrs post exercise was an additional 37% of the energy expended during exercise.
