Spot Reducing is Possible: Myth 13

In my last post I exposed that ‘you are what you eat’ is really just a myth, when the truth really is ‘you are what you think’! Today I am going to share with you another common nutrition and weight loss myth and that is:

Spot Reducing is Possible
FALSE: You can do crunches or leg lifts all day long, but if you don’t lose the fat, you’ll never see the trim muscle underneath! Weight reduction needs to take place over the entire body, and then it’s possible to tone and shape certain muscle groups with specific exercises…but spot reducing doesn’t work!

We are almost coming to the end of this series of Common Nutrition and Weight Loss Myths. Stay tuned for my next post when I expose the last myth in this series.
