5 Fitness Myth I Absolutely LOVE!

5 Fitness Myths I Absolutely LOVE!
I hear fitness myths all the time. I just thought Id give you guys 5 of my all-time favourites.

Soreness Means Success (i.e. If Im not sore the next day I didnt work hard enough): 100% False, depending one your body type, the way your body reacts to fitness training, and how hard you worked, soreness is not a good indicator. If you want to gauge your results you should track every workout to see if youre getting stronger. If youre sore for days after a workout chances are you over did it.
Strength Training Will Cause me to Bulk Up: A lot of women stay away from weight training in fear of bulking up. Lifting weights will give you bigger, stronger muscles, but in women its hard to bulk up due to the lack of proper hormones. As long as you keep the reps high and the weight moderate youll see results you absolutely love.
This Supplement Will Change Your Life: Supplement gepanies make a lot of their money selling supplements to people dont need them. Supplements work, but really arent needed to succeed in a basic weight loss/fitness program. Proper diet and exercise will help you achieve the results youre looking for.
Eating Fat makes you Fat: Not true. Bad fats clog your arteries and are definitely part of the problem, but its eating too many overall calories that will make you fat. Fat does have a higher calorie content than Protein and Carbs (10 Calories per gram as opposed to 4 calories per gram) but if you were to eat 3000 calories a day of just carbs or protein and your body only requires 2000 a day, youll gain weight/body fat. The only way for most people to control and lose weight is a balanced diet of Fat, Protein, and Carbs and a Well Planned Fitness Program.
Short Workouts Do Nothing: Some people claim that they are too busy to workout for the regemended 30-45 minutes a day, so they just dont bother. The truth is, a 15 to 20-minute workout can be just as effective as 45-minute workout if done right. Whether you exercise for 10 minutes or 45 minutes, the fact that youre doing it is all that matters.
