Myth #1: Doing abdominal exercises will get rid of my belly:
Ultimately cardio, extensive training and good eating habits are the only way out.
Myth #2: If I don’t sweat, I’m not working hard enough:
Everyone’s different, some do and some don’t.
Myth #3: Machines are always safer than free weights:
Not true if you aren’t careful or under supervision.
Myth #4: If I am not sore the following day, I should work harder:

High reps burn more calories and high weight ads mass. Its important to work on different body parts differently.
