6 Fitness Myths that stops us from having Great Abs

Myth #1 – There is a quick fix to flat abs

There is no proven to reduce that tummy in an instant. The only solution is sticking with a fat burning diet and to burn off your tummy fat with intense, regular exercise.

Myth #2 – Crunches are the way to go

According to researchers from the University of California, you could only burn 1 pound if we perform 250,000 crunches. That will take us a lifetime if you ask me! Countless ab crunches can actually make our tummy bigger. This is because the classic sit-up only engages the superficial abdominal muscles, those just under your skin; which can lead to larger (not smaller) abs.

Myth #3 – Flat abs are made in the kitchen

Diet does play a crucial role in weight loss, but we also need to do some exercise on the side. We need exercise to burn off those unwanted fats in our body. Diet help us to control the amount of fats that build in out body to a minimum. A combination of exercise and diet will help us to achieve the flat tummy that we want.

Myth #4 – Any exercise will do for belly fat loss

Any exercise is beneficial for our health, but when it comes to exercise to get rid of tummy fat, we need to do more to sweat it more. A lot of people who exercise regularly don’t actually work their abdomen.
