What are the misunderstandings about exercise and fitness?

Nowadays, it is not only female friends who pay more attention to their figure. Even many male friends pay more attention to their figure. Many male friends hope that their figure can become better than before, so that we can accumulate more muscles in our bodies and make ourselves more manly. However, muscles can only be obtained through fitness. It is not that you are born with more muscles.

1. Sweating means effective exercise. People's sweat glands are different and can be divided into two types: active and conservative, which is related to genetics. Therefore, sweating cannot be used to determine whether exercise is effective.

2. High amounts of exercise help you lose weight quickly. Only by persisting in long-term training and consuming a large amount of calories can you achieve the goal of rapid weight loss.

3. 20 minutes of exercise every day is absolutely necessary. Generally speaking, 3 times a week, 15 minutes each time is enough. The key is to persist.

4. Muscles will not atrophy after a period of exercise. A few months after you stop exercising, your muscle tissue will relax. Therefore, the interval between two exercises should not be too long.

5. Bodybuilding is beneficial to people of any age. Doctors believe that young people under the age of 18 should be cautious about bodybuilding.

6. No matter what sport you play, it doesn't matter what shoes you wear. Sports shoes should be selected according to different standards, such as what sport to do, how to do the sport, which part of the body is under the force, etc. These should be considered when choosing sports shoes.

7. Athletes' drinks can help build muscle. Ordinary drinking water already contains the nutrients your body needs. Those who exercise more than 90 minutes a day can drink water containing salt and minerals, but this water does not promote muscle growth.

Moreover, many male friends have quite a lot of misunderstandings when doing exercise and fitness. Some people think that they must sweat after fitness to achieve the effect of fitness. In fact, whether or not you sweat has no direct relationship with whether you have achieved the fitness effect. Therefore, you cannot use sweating to judge whether your exercise is effective. This is still related to genetics.
