If you have been reading health related magazine lately, I am sure you bound to read tips and tricks related to weight loss. There are so many myths out there about weight loss that really confuses people who really want to lose weight.
That is exactly why I want to share with you 3 myths about weight loss that may endanger your life.
Myth #1
Losing fat in a certain spot is possible. This is not true at all and most of the fitness expert will agree with me on this. There is no way that you can force your body to lose fat only in a particular area of your body.
So what you should do is not only doing a particular workout, but should also follow a healthy diet.
Myth #2
The second myth is that when you "drastically cut down on calorie, it will reduce your body fat". Do you know that when you drastically cut down on your diet, you are doing more harm to your body? This is because when you starve and not eat, you will slow down your metabolism rate and this will cause your body to burn your muscle instead of your fat to produce energy.
That is why when you starve yourself, you are actually losing muscle instead of fat.
Myth #3
The last myth that I want to share with you is that you can lose weight by doing cardio exercises alone. Even though cardio exercises do help to lose fat but you do not want to miss out on the other exercises that can be as effective as cardio exercise.
Some of the other exercises are like weight lifting and aerobics.
