Even though we live in the day and age of the Internet, people are still blindly believing some things that are leftovers from the past. You can literally find anything on the Internet and check the validity of information, which is why it\u2019s unusual seeing people believe stupid myths that were debunked a long time ago.<\/p>\n
Well, this isn\u2019t the only thing making its appearance yet again (flat earth theory, vaccines are evil, etc.), but it\u2019s just as damaging. People sometimes workout improperly and cause damage to their bodies because someone (thinking they were smart) told them that what they\u2019re doing is wrong.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re here to debunk these myths, again<\/em>.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking to give your muscles a growing boost, take a look at Whey Protein Isolate<\/a> \u2013 it\u2019s a dietary supplement that helps improve the rate at which your muscles get stronger and larger in size.<\/p>\n We\u2019re not entirely sure where this myth originated from, but it\u2019s downright stupid. Lifting lighter weights doesn\u2019t give your muscle definition. Muscle definition comes all by itself when you exercise properly. If you complete an entire set of exercises each day, you\u2019ll be able to focus on cardio one day, and on the rest of your body during the rest of the week. If you do this, you will start seeing some muscle definition slowly. Lighter weights don\u2019t make a difference; in fact, you should start small and slowly work your way up.<\/p>\n Running doesn\u2019t only boost your stamina; it helps your body stay fit as well. Studies have shown that running (or doing cardio) can keep your bones healthy for a long time. As long as you don\u2019t step over your boundaries too much, you won\u2019t be having problems. Your knees won\u2019t go all floppy and weak all of a sudden, just because you\u2019ve chosen to start running. On the contrary, running can be helpful to your knees \u2013 just make sure you run distances that you can cover. Don\u2019t overdo it!<\/p>\n This myth stems from the belief that all high protein meat is fat and attributes to weight gain. However, this isn\u2019t true for all high protein meat. All meat is different, especially when we\u2019re talking about the \u2018meat\u2019 in fast food restaurants<\/a>. Junk food does have a lot of protein and calories, but none of those are useful proteins and calories.<\/p>\n They just turn into fat, and they are the real contributors to weight gain. If you eat a steady amount of fresh meat and vegetables (even if there are more proteins and calories involved), once you start working out, everything that you\u2019ve eaten will be energy that your body will use. So no, high protein diets aren\u2019t unhealthy.<\/p>\n Another myth that simply isn\u2019t true comes from the past, around the time the good old \u2018you aren\u2019t working hard enough if you aren\u2019t sweating\u2019 line. And this is true in some cases; after all, if you don\u2019t workout as hard as you should, you won\u2019t sweat a lot. And you possibly won\u2019t be losing a lot of weight.<\/p>\nLifting Lighter Weights Gives You Muscle Definition<\/h3>\n
