What are some common fitness myths?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many: Like the idea that doing abdominal exercises alone with give you a "six pack", as this appearance really come from weight control, which is more caloric restriction related rather than exercise related. It's why a thin person who doesn't work out can have a "six pack" but a bulky power lifter can have a "gut". There are too many to list in these 400 character or less responses
