Common Fitness Mistakes

Fitness Mistake #1 Static Stretching Cold Muscles
Static stretching cold muscles Can lead to torn and tight muscles. Better to warm-up with dynamic movements and stretch once your muscles are warm.

Fitness Mistake #2 Skipping Your Warm Up
Skipping a warm-up before lifting weights for example, can result in torn muscles and with cardiovascular exercise, could raise your heart rate too fast.

Fitness Mistake #3 Not Staying Sufficiently Hydrated
Becoming dehydrated is REALLY serious and SCARY. In fact, at 3% dehydration you could pass out and fall into a coma.

Fitness Mistake #4 Not Giving Yourself Enough Time to Train
This can be very scary because inadequate training could result in everything from cramps and injury to serious cardiac complications and death.

Fitness Mistake #5 Having a "No pain No Gain" attitude
"No pain no gain" is another scary fitness mistake that can lead to injury.
