Tis the season to get fit, however the fitness world is full of myths.. what your biggest myth that peeves you?
Mine is the idea of people having slow or fast metabolisms, people's metabolisms do not vary greatly between individuals of the same sex. Yes if you're 6'8 you will need to eat more than a person at 5'6 but proportionally their metabolisms will be very similar (within a hundred calories or so).
The idea that people have high and slow metabolisms is a myth pervayed by "fitness" and "health and beauty" magazines, websites etc the world over and is extremely damaging as it makes people shrug their shoulders and make them believe that they can't change their bodies because it's not their fault.
So TSR - whats your biggest myth?
