2.Girls should not do weights – Weight are thought to be only for weight lifters and a big no for girls. This myth about exercise can restrict fitness. Girls should concentrate more on toning but strengthening your body is also important. Doing weights strengthens the muscles and supports your body for more exercise. This makes your muscles tougher and helps you avoid loose skin.

5.Don't drinking water while walking – This is a age old exercise myth. Drinking water is important while walking. In fact after every 20 minutes one should drink water. While walking we sweat and over sweating may make you dehydrated. Water will help you stay hydrated thus keeping up your energy level. While walking after every 20 minutes take a break. Wait for 5 minutes and sip on water.
6.Building muscles lead to weight loss – The truth is that building muscles and weight loss are two very different processes. One needs to concentrate on weight loss and only then can one build muscles. In order to loose weight one needs to burn calories and in order to build muscles one needs to consume calories. Muscle building process however does not lead to weight gain as they use the calories for muscles.
