Truths and Lies about Health and Fitness

By Jude John Cordell


Usually when we go to the gym there are people who will tell us things about fitness that are not true, ignore them. 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. Similar to many other situations in life where you might need advice, be careful what you believe. Make sure you are getting the best information by seeking counsel from authoritative figures in the industry. The following tips can help shed some light on truths and other information on health and fitness.

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 strange attitude where sweat is concerned. Many people tend to think that if they are sweating, then they are doing good and working hard. The converse seems to hold, as well. Most also believe the flip side of that too. In fact sweat is simply your body's air conditioner. Physical exertion and sweat are not interrelated.

It's a fact that you can burn calories without breaking 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. You can also affect a positive influence on other conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and joint and bone diseases. Aging is another condition that can be aided with exercise and healthy lifestyle choices.

No doubt you will hear all kinds of lies and a few truths about fitness in the world. 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. Perform due diligence on everything you hear.
