Top Exercise Myth

I was thinking back today over my years of teaching Pilates and fitness and how many exercise myths I had come across in the last 2 decades. As you may know from seeing my work on line, I am a believer in moderation. Intense exercise, yes, but for short spurts and within a pain free zone.



Even with all the studies showing that moderate strength training (including core) combined with short bouts of intense cardio and some flexibility work does wonders in about 1-2 hours a week total time, almost everyone I see in our guest gym is still doing hours of steady state cardio.



Unless you're a marathon runner this way of training takes lots of time and is just not necessary!
