Health and fitness - The Truth and Lies

By Jude John Cordell


Sometimes it seems that when you go to the gym or club it really is a good idea to avoid listening to everyone who talks. While you can get some great workout tips, you can also pick-up information that may be inaccurate or false. While it is possible to get 'some' good tips for your workout, it's more likely that you'll pick up false information although not intentional. Just because someone has been working out in the gym a long time does not necessarily make them an authority on the subject just like any other time you might get advice. Make sure you are getting the best information by seeking counsel from authoritative figures in the industry. These tips can help you get the best information.

Have you ever heard that swimming is a great way to lose weight? We are here to burst that bubble, it's not the truth. Losing weight is not a benefit you will gain from swimming although there are many other benefits you will gain. The reason for this is because as you are swimming the water is doing the work to support your body weight (called buoyancy) which basically means you aren't getting the workout you think you are or that you might if you were running or jogging long distances.

There is a curious attitude when it comes to sweating. A lot of people think that sweating means they are working out well. The converse seems to hold, as well. Most also believe the flip side of that too. Sweat is your body's way of cooling itself. Physical exertion and sweat are not interrelated.

You can in fact burn a lot of calories and never break a sweat. Even just a walk can help you accomplish that.

Serious disease conditions can be slowed or prevented by implementing a healthy fitness program like taking a home exercise bike routine and a well balanced diet. You've no doubt heard for years about the effects of exercise on cardiovascular health. It is a proven fact that other conditions can also be improved or prevented with diet and exercise. Exercise and healthy lifestyle choices can also help slow the aging process.

You will hear many lies and some truths in the world where fitness is concerned. So be careful what you believe. Find ways to verify the information before you trust it like this article. Careful here, you'll want to avoid information that can cause you harm if it turns out to be incorrect. This article has given you the tools you need to make sure you are safe and getting good information.
