energy burst
Quick power spike
A sudden surge of vigor or vitality, often brief and intense.
Someone experiencing an energy burst might tackle tasks they'd been putting off or feel unexpectedly alert: I had a random energy burst at midnight and cleaned the whole kitchen.
The term appears in fitness contexts for quick, high-intensity efforts, and in science fiction for weapon discharges or power surges.
