The Claim
Does hydraulic resistance HIIT burn more carbs than other workouts?
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
When doing a high-intensity workout on a hydraulic machine, your body burns more sugar (carbs) for energy than when you lift weights, run, or bike at the same time.
See the scientific wording
During a 30-minute hydraulic resistance system (HRS) high-intensity interval training session, carbohydrate oxidation is significantly higher (2.98 ± 0.59 g·min⁻¹) than during resistance training (2.15 ± 0.40 g·min⁻¹), treadmill endurance (1.74 ± 0.44 g·min⁻¹), or cycling endurance (1.97 ± 0.45 g·min⁻¹) in healthy men.
What the research says
1 studyThe study found that working out with the hydraulic machine for 30 minutes burns more energy and uses more carbs than lifting weights, running, or cycling — exactly what the claim says.
