Fact And Fiction As Related To Health And Fitness.

By Wilson Resturbee


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.

It's a fact that we are more inclined to believe what we are hearing if it is appearing to come from a position of authority or someone who appears to know what they are talking about. These "rumors" can be harmful especially if the person does not do the exercise correctly. Here in this article we will explore a bit more in depth into the myths and facts of health and fitness.

Your knees are taking the brunt of the impact no matter what little give might be offered by a treadmill. Having a good running shoe can help benefit your knees.

Treadmills may offer some give but they are not going to offer extra support to your knees. Your shoes can help absorb some of this impact.

One myth we've all used at one time or another is the "I don't have the extra time in my schedule for a workout". Really, you only need to take about 15 minutes a couple times a week. This short exercise schedule is better than nothing especially if you can top it off with a 30 minute aerobic workout on your days off. Can you squeeze in a walk at work or with your children? You can go for a brisk walk during your lunch hour or break. You can take ten minutes and jump a rope, and you can do that in your apartment or house. It's not impossible to find that 10 minutes if you try hard enough.

You really do not have to go far to hear some health and fitness advice that is either truth or something else. In fact, you could have a few good ones of your own. The best thing to do when you hear something doubtful you need to research it to find some credible information to support or refute it.
