5 Workout Tips to Overlook

5 Workout Tips to Overlook

2020 is a great time to be an aspiring bodybuilder as digital media and the internet allow anyone to get the most important information needed to train effectively. Unfortunately, it also makes it easier to get tricked by falsified information. That’s why we’re counting down the advices that people cling onto to help them see the real facts.

5. Bodyweight Workouts

Bodyweight Workouts get a bad rap in the body-building world. It is because most people don’t utilize proper body weight progressions thus they can not increase resistance so never achieve any results. That’s the main concern, it takes an extraordinary amount of time to bust through the basics before you can start doing some advanced moves. So this is great for a bodybuilder and can pack on muscle mass if you do it right.

4. Deadlifts are bad for your back

Deadlifts are commonly believed to destroy your back, but that doesn’t have to be the case if you do, make sure that you have good form just like any other exercise. A bad form will get you injured so ensure that you’re on point with your movements to avoid serious damages.

3. Target and spot reduction of fat

Target and spot reduction of fat by working on that part harder turns out to be a myth as fat-losing is connected to genetics too. Therefore, weekly abs fat blasting workouts won’t make your waist specifically slimmer.

2. Deep squats are bad for your knees

Much like deadlifts the squat is an exercise that is being considered dangerous. However, if you know your limits and keep form correct, then, that is the one myth that keeps coming back.  Fortunately the recent studies have shown that deep squatting has no direct correlation to injuring your knees so long as you don’t do excessive weight that you can’t handle as long as you keep that form solid and in your limits you can do ass to grass squats all day.

1. Crunches and sit ups for abs

Crunches and sit-ups will give you six pack abs. This is one of the most commonly believed workout myths to keep hold, but here’s the thing if you already have abs,  you just need to lose fat to show them off just like we stated earlier targeting your abs won’t make you lose more weight in that area. So if you really want to get a killer six-pack, you just need to focus on cardio and an airtight diet. But feel free to still do the crunches, but don’t expect them to target your abs all alone.
