See the technical phrasing

High-intensity interval training (HN) significantly reduces subcutaneous fat thickness by -10.2 ± 9.4% across six measurement sites after 13 weeks in young untrained men, whereas low-intensity steady-state training (LST) does not produce significant fat loss (-2.1 ± 1.22%), likely due to higher mechanical work and catecholamine release in HN.
