Similar Assertions

Doing a 30-minute workout on a hydraulic machine with short bursts of all-out effort burns more calories than the same amount of time lifting weights, running on a treadmill, or riding a bike.

75%

After lifting weights, your heart rate comes back down to normal at about the same speed whether you rested 1 minute or 2 minutes between sets, or whether you trained at real altitude or with a mask.
