Fitness Myths
E-diets had an article on fitness myths that I thought it would be good to share. I have written about most of these in the past but thought it would be nice to give them to you again here.
Ever see the ridiculous infomercials on television late at night, claiming to get you in shape in only six minutes a day? Yeah, right!
Promotions such as these got Raphael Calzadilla, eDiets’ chief fitness pro, thinking about how many people buy into these myths. He was one of six speakers addressing a group of eDieters and staffers at eDiets one-day seminar event in Ft. Lauderale, Florida. In his no-nonsense, down-to-earth style, Raphael discussed point by point an easy-to-follow list of guidelines for losing fat and getting fit that separated fact from fiction.
First and foremost, knowing the fundamentals of getting in overall better shape is necessary, says the 2005 winner of the prestigious World Natural Bodybuilding Federation Pro-Card. He says there are three things that must be included in any workout plan:
1. Strength training to build muscle and increase bone density.
2. Cardiovascular exercise to burn additional calories and to strengthen the heart.
3. Intelligent caloric deficit and consistency.
