While we are well in the winter and people start thinking about sun and sandy beaches, more and more decide to fight the cold weather and get to a fitness club to lose the weight accumulated during chrismas or simply gain some muscles to look nice on the beach.
Every year when people go the those clubs for the first time, they all hear from their friend or still thinkat about those exercise myths.
We probably all know those myths and all think they are true.
The most well known myth is the spot reduction. Spot reduction does not work and loosing weight in a particular spot is extremely difficult. The only way to actually lose weight at a particular point is to use plastic surgery with liposuction.
The reason for that is fairly simple actually. Fat belongs to the whole body and is not compartimented by body parts. As a result, focusing on a part is not really going to get the fat away but will big up your muscles.
