二头肌!总有许多误解关于重量训练; 许多神话,许多谎言。 它没有由经常胖做广告的和明显地`烧伤隔夜’产品的堰坝真正地帮助。 And the internet also contributes to the confusion.

I’ve been asked many questions about such myths before such as, ‘Is it possible to change fat into muscle?’ and ‘Can I get a six-pack in a day?’. And, no matter how many times I answer these people, I’m still constantly assaulted with these kinds of questions.

So, I thought I would answer these questions, once and for all.

1. Fat into Muscle

To begin, I’ll start with the extremely common myth that fat can be changed directly into muscle. To this day, I still do not understand why people believe this. Even logically, this doesn’t work. For one, fat and muscle are two entirely different tissues. They have completely different structures, and completely different functions.

2.    Spot Reduce Fat

This one is probably the most common myth around. Training one muscle group and burning only the fat around it just isn’t possible. Fat is burned from cardiovascular exercise and having a good diet. For example, if you’ve got a beer belly, doing 100 crunches isn’t going to burn stomach fat. Instead, run for half an hour, and you’ll burn overall body fat.

3.    Starving Yourself Reduces Fat

Starving yourself nearly always guarantees a long-term gain in fat. At the start of the diet, yes, there’s usually a temporary loss of fat. As soon as the person resumes their normal diet though, they usually gain it all back and more.

In a lot of cases though, more fat is gained from starvation diets due to the slowdown of the metabolism. By not eating, your body enters ‘starvation mode’ and your metabolism will eventually slow to a halt.

And, starvation diets usually lead to major muscle losses, and energy depletions.

4.    Protein should make up most of the diet

Well, I think I covered most of the major myths, but I’ve probably left a few out. The point of this article was, well, as well to inform you on these myths, also to give you a warning to never believe everything your hear. During my school years, the changing rooms would always be full of a bunch of guys talking about a lot of garbage on how to get bigger, faster, and stronger. Even today I still hear guys talking about more garbage.

Whatever you choose to believe, make sure you dig for the truth behind it before you decide to try it out. You could save yourself so much time and effort.

    As a side note about protein, it is suggested that in order to build lean muscle one should take about 0.7 to 0.8 grams per body weight. So if you were to weight 150lbs then the suggested amount of protein would be 150×0.7=105; 150×0.8=120. So you should be consuming between 105 and 120 grams of protein per day in order to build lean muscle.

    Anyone know more about the workout plan in Tim Ferris’s book, or know of resources?

    He summarizes it in the link below, but I had trouble figuring out exactly what to do.
