I'm sure we all have been there and believed any of this as truth while on a fitness journey isn't it? Since kids, we have been bombarded with so many wrong statements about myths that we have grown up believing it's true. Let's clarify some myths about fitness here.

More sweats = more fat loss
The amount of sweat you released is nowhere connected to the amount of fat loss it's just a way of body cooling when the temperature of the body rises up during a workout. It's a temporary loss of water and not fat.
More workouts = better results
