It shouldn’t be a surprise that the fitness industry, considering its popularity in the recent decade, should have plenty of rumors and myths just floating around, ready to be put into social media or word-of-mouth where people can be deceived into believing it and following them, thus ruining their workout regimen or even their overall fitness. With that in mind, here we are, presenting you with some of the most common myths that you should not buy into: 1. More Sweating Equals Better Workout: While a layman would buy into this theory, probably imagining that working harder results in more sweat and the same analogy applies to your workout too, anyone with even the basic scientific education would tell you otherwise. Sweating is actually a response when your body’s temperature is getting higher so that it cools down. Sometimes, when your body’s temperature is already cool no matter how heavy, the barbells or dumbbells were, it’s still a great workout. 2. No Pain, No Gain: Once again, this is what fitness enthusiasts would consider wrong. Sure, having a strenuous workout will be much better, but even if you consider doing something which doesn’t cause that much pain. You can still […]

This is a Quick Training Tip, the best chance to learn how to work in a smarter way so that you get the maximum gains in the least possible time. If you only do straight sets in your gym then you will get average results. The drill to follow: Do one set of an exercise, after which rest, and repeat.
