Gym Myths!!



1. "Women need to exercise differently than men do."

  • Nope. 

2. "You can turn fat into muscle."

  • Nope, not how that works, but you can build muscle as you're losing fat.

3. "The more you sweat the better the workout was."

  • Nope. Just depends on your genetics, some people sweat a lot more than other people, but it doesn't determine if you had a good workout or not.

4. "Morning workouts are better and more effective." 

  • Nope. Doesn't make a difference anytime of the day.

5. "Carbs and sugar make you fat." 

  •  Nope. Carbs and sugar are both needed, and help fuel the body.

6. "If you're not sore after a workout, it means you didn't try hard enough."

  • Nope. If you've been working out for a long time, you're less likely to get sore, but that doesn't mean you won't have results.

7. "Lifting heavy will make you bulky." 

  •  Nope. Only if you want to be bulky.

 8. "Doing only ab exercises will burn your fat and give you abs."

  • Nope. If you want to burn stubborn stomach fat and achieve abs, you need to eat in a calorie deficit. Its all about nutrition.

9. "The longer you're at the gym, the better the workout."

  • Nope. You don't need to be there for over an hour, you can get an equally effective workout in 30min or less.

10. "Creatine causes hair loss."

  •  Nope. It doesn't have any harmful side effects, completely safe and very much recommended for muscle growth.
