‘lose weight’

Myth on sports

Monday, March 1st, 2010

No physical pain can not get the desired results (it is nothing without)

Demystifying: This is a classical myth. The truth is that if your muscles suffer after your last physical exertion, you may well have offended. The muscle pain is not necessary to pass a physical training. In fact, pain may even be a warning sent by your body telling you that you go too far (beyond your physical capabilities).

A few slight pain is not unusual if you change your exercise routine, but if you still endure muscle pain over two days after your last physical training, you probably went too far or have not given enough time for your muscles to recover (or a mixture of both).

Ultimately, sport brings many benefits: better health, energy, confidence, etc.. There are risks, but make sport a part of your life will always give long term benefits. Just make sure to debunk myths about the sport and base your routine physical training on established truths.
