Hey friends! This video took a lot longer than I expected... I ended up making a lot of mistakes and had to redo parts of it. Irony? Haha.

I had to cut out a lot of clips to make it fit. For example, regarding spot reduction, it's not CURRENTLY thought to be possible, but there are fringe studies that have tested the theory. I don't personally buy into it, but I ideally I would have brought that up to ward off potential arguments.

In addition, while we may not be able to spot reduce with exercise, there may be others things we can do. For example, low-carb diets have been shown to help reduce visceral fat.

I recommend everyone do their own research on the subject and come to their own conclusions! I'm certainly not the final opinion.

The second mistake I cover involves exercising too much.

After a long period of inactivity, we're often suddenly inspired. Sometimes it's by someone we see on television.

For some of us it's watching Rocky. For others, it's Naruto.

Everyone is a bit different, I guess.

It's better, in my opinion, to start off with low intensity exercises at a volume you can sustain and scale.

You can go on a walk every morning, for example.

You could also do a proper workout 2-3x a week.

And then you can scale up the volume and difficulty after a few weeks of sustaining this routine.

The third mistake is investing in too much equipment.

We can't buy our fitness and health, so we shouldn't let others try to sell it to us.

Sometimes we feel better after we "invest" hundreds of dollars into expensive exercise gear and equipment.

Unfortunately, spending that money isn't making us healthier or fitter.

We also can't use that as an excuse not to exercise.

We can get started with just our bodies, the floor, and gravity.

Of course, we're always welcome to expand our equipment arsenal as we need!

I hope this can help you out!
