Just like all other rumors that you might hear there are truths and fictions about health and fitness too. Myths often occur when the person doesn’t get the whole tip before sharing with someone else on and on and on it goes truthful or not it’s still a rumor. Maybe they even didn’t hear it right. But they innocently tell something they know, and another myth is born, again.If the person giving you the tip is one of authority you are more likely to take that tip as gospel. In fact, these untruths can be extremely dangerous if you perform the exercise incorrectly. We will talk about some of the worst fitness and health facts and rumors.
Have you ever heard that swimming is a great way to lose weight? So, we will now tell you that is not so – it is not true. Swimming has many benefits but losing pounds isn’t one of them. 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.
It’s widely known that exercise can increase your energy levels. This really is a benefit of regular exercise. Those that exercise in the morning report feeling energized during the rest of the day. One of the many reasons for this is increased blood circulation. Improved circulation means your cells are receiving more oxygen. Related to that is your strength and stamina will improve with working out. You will naturally feel like you have more energy if you have more stamina.
There are mounds of research supporting the fact that a healthy fitness program of exercise and diet will significantly reduce, slow, or prevent serious disease conditions. We all know about exercise and cardiovascular health, so that is just one. High blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol are only a few of the other conditions that can be positively impacted by exercise. Beyond medical diseases, you can slow the aging process in some respects by following a good exercise routine along with a healthy lifestyle.
All fitness areas have some truth or myths associated with them. Sometimes they are general statements while other times they are specifically related to various types of physical exercise. No matter what, though, do some quality reading and research and give serious thought to what you are doing.
