Oceanfront Gym At Palacio Del Mar
Nothing feels better than working out by the ocean or with an ocean view, especially if you live in Northern Baja. Good exercising when combined with a proper diet is the best way to stay fit, it is also an excellent way to boost your confidence and take steps towards a healthy living. However, there are a lot of misconceptions and myths surrounding this area.
Palacio del Mar just opened up their oceanfront gym with a wide array of exercising equipment. Working out with a full ocean view sounds soothing enough, we thought of asking our friends of Pulse Fitness, Kristi Hugstad and Bill Brotherton, to point us in the right direction by setting the record straight on the most common exercising myths out there.
Here are 4 common exercising myths:
By Kristi Hugstad and Bill Brotherton.
1. Will crunches get rid of my love handles around my waist?
No. You can’t pick and choose areas where you’d like to burn fat. There is no such thing as spot reducing. You should create a workout that includes both cardiovascular and strength training elements. This will decrease your overall body fat content.
2. Does lifting weights make women bulky?
No. most women’s bodies do not produce nearly enough testosterone to become “bulky” like bodybuilders. If you do find yourself getting bigger, try reducing your daily caloric intake and increasing your cardio workouts.
3. Does eating late at night cause weight gain?
No. There are no “magic” hours to eat or exercise. We associate late-night eating with weight gain because we usually consume more calories at night. Start the day out with breakfast and eat ever 3-4 hours. Keep lunch the same size as dinner, and you will be less likely to over-indulge at night, yet you can enjoy a small late night snack without the fear of it sticking to your middle.
4. Is it OK to skip stretching before a workout?
Yes. Stretching cold muscles can actually lead to injury. When you stretch, muscle fibers are lengthened and destabilized, making them less prepared for the strain of exercise. Wait until after your workout to thoroughly stretch your muscles.
Remember everybody has different needs and necessities when it comes down to getting fit. Setting an optimal pace and routine will work wonders for you, especially if it’s closely watch by a fitness professional.
