Workout Myths That Just Need To Die



·       Strength Training Bulks You Up

It is quite difficult for women to bulk up from strength training as their testosterone levels are much lower than that of men. A higher level of testosterone in men makes it easier for them to bulk up. If weight loss is your ultimate goal then that’s where strength training can come in handy but you need to remember that the more lean muscle you have the more calories are required thus the more lean muscle you have the more calories your body will burn in resting position as muscles are metabolically active.

·       Losing Fat From Focused Parts

Spot training isn’t a thing, so yeah just forget about it. Your fat cells are distributed throughout the body and working on a particular muscle won’t do you any good. A full body workout can lead to an effective training.

·       Ultimate Way To Lose Weight Is Cardio

In the event that your objective is weight reduction, logging unlimited miles on the treadmill isn't generally the best methodology. Indeed, customary cardio exercises will help make an everyday calorie shortage, which is fundamental for getting in shape. Be that as it may, in the long haul, since having progressively slender bulk enables your body to consume more calories very still, you'll be adding to this shortfall without doing a thing. A blend of both high-power cardio and quality preparing is a smart thought. Also, remember, with regards to weight reduction, having a brilliant sustenance plan is critical.

·       No Sore Muscles, No Gain

While irritation and exercise power are some of the time associated, how tired your muscles feel isn't constantly a decent pointer of a strong perspiration meeting. The intensity of sore muscles is not a way to gauge how proper or strenuous the exercise was. One can have a proper exercise and not be sore the next day; the sore muscle is not at all a measure of how well you trained. Proper muscle recovery will relive you of the muscle pain. After exercise refuel yourself, stay hydrated and have a good sleep. All of these things will help in a speedy recovery.

·       100% Effort Every Day At The Gym

Yes, you should be focused, you should give your best but that does not mean you need a ball-to-the-wall kind of session every day. Regular sore muscle is not a very good sign, it means you are stressing your muscles way beyond their capacity which we all know ends in usual horrific gym injuries. It’s not a good idea to have a high intensity workout every day- it limits recovery and can end up in over training.

·       Strength Training Requires Machines And Heavy Lifting

In a nutshell strength training means resistance against your muscles more simply putting pressure on the muscles that is not necessarily achieved from heavy weights or machines. To begin with, the foremost thing is your own body weight. You can add variations on how you pull or push against you own body weight and you have done excellent strength training. Apart from this use can use kettle bells and resistance bands.

·       More Sweat = More Hard Work

Well, honestly, it’s just plain absurdness to believe this one at least. Of course tere is no denying in the fact that the harder you work out the more sweat your body produces as the body temperature increases. This does not mean that if working out at -2 degrees doesn’t bring any sweat you have not put in your best, obviously the weather and humidity plays a major role in how much you sweat while you work out. So yeah you can rule out this factor for measuring your efforts.

·       Work Out Every Day

This one’s definitely not true, THANK GOD! When you are exercising your muscle fibre breaks so they can rebuild stronger. In order to allow muscles for this kind of recover you need to put them at rest for at least a day or two in a week.
