It&#8217;s simple for us to skirt around physical activity when we have fast cars, desks we all do our work at, and busy schedules that limit us on time.<\/p>\n<p>Exercise can also feel like a chore. It&#8217;s not uncommon to view it as &#8220;punishment&#8221; or a &#8220;must-do&#8221; for weight-loss. We often neglect to think about it as a basic human requirement for good health.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not surprising, then, our perspective on exercise has room for improvement. Actually, a lot of myths surround exercise and weight-loss that escape our understanding.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Common, Untrue Exercise Claims<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h5><strong>1. A Workout Can Make up for a Bad Day with Food.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Did you just devour a bag of poker chips while watching a Friday night movie? Not a problem! Just get up early for any morning run, right? Wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Exercise doesn&#039;t make up for, or outweigh, a poor diet. Actually, most people overestimate the number of calories they burn through physical activity. If you&#8217;re eating lots of calories, chances are, they&#8217;ll probably be visible on the scale.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>2. Muscle-toning is Good Enough for Exercise.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Toned muscles are nice, but the strength-based workouts that tone your muscles don&#8217;t suffice for adequate exercise. You need a range of exercise styles including cardio, endurance and strength training. This way you actually burn fat, giving parts of your muscles a better chance at showing.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>3. You Can Lose Fat in One Area.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Sit-ups for any flat stomach? Leg lifts for toned thighs? They are great workouts, but don&#8217;t make the mistake of thinking you are able to lose fat in just one area. This is known as spot reduction, and it doesn&#8217;t work because fat is lost from your whole body with influence from your genes and biology.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>4. If You Don&#8217;t Feel Sore, You Didn&#8217;t Work Hard Enough.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>The quality of your workout doesn&#8217;t always correlate with how sore you&#039;re. Soreness can indicate many other things, together with a muscle that wasn&#8217;t stretched well enough beforehand.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>5. You Have to Exercise Every Day at 100% to Lose Weight.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Exercise can be hard work, however it doesn&#8217;t mean you have to kill yourself in the process. Not every workout requires a higher level of intensity. You can be just as effective at a slower pace, with lower resistance, doing various activities.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The above exercise claims are FALSE! Be sure you do your research on exercise and fitness before beginning a plan you&#8217;re not entirely confident in. Do make a plan, though, to set goals, track your progress and remain on the wagon. If you have questions regarding your health and fitness, don&#8217;t hesitate to speak with your healthcare provider or a certified fitness trainer for professional advice. If you take precaution when exercising and following easy steps to improvement, you can achieve weight-loss success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Disclaimer: Before starting any exercise plan, first meet with a trusted healthcare professional.
