Diet and Exercise Myths

Woo Hoo! I was reading an article on Science Daily called Experts "Weigh In" on Popular Diet and Exercise Myths tonight and I was so happy to see #10...

You have to sweat to have a good workout.

False. Tyne says "Sweating is not necessarily an indicator of exertion--sweating is your body's way of cooling itself." It is possible to burn a significant number of calories without breaking a sweat: try taking a walk, or doing some light weight training or working out in a swimming

1. You have trouble talking while doing the exercise
2. You sweat

Now I can stop beating myself up when I don't break into a sweat while exercising!!
