There's plenty of conventional wisdom on health and fitness--but
how much of it is scientifically sound? The truth is: less than
you'd think.
In Which Comes First, Cardio or Weights?, physicist and
award-winning journalist Alex Hutchinson tackles dozens of commonly
held beliefs and looks at just what research science has--and has
not--proven to be true:
Should I exercise when I'm sick? - Do I get the same workout
from the elliptical machine that I get from running? - What role
does my brain play in fatigue? - Will running ruin my knees? - To
lose weight, is it better to eat less or exercise more? - How
should I adapt my workout routine as I get older? - Does it matter
what I'm thinking about when I train? - Will drinking coffee help
or hinder my performance? - Should I have sex the night before a
competition?
This myth-busting book covers the full spectrum of exercise
science and offers the latest in research from around the globe, as
well as helpful diagrams and plenty of practical tips on using
proven science to improve fitness, reach weight loss goals, and
achieve better competition results.
