Strength Training Myths We Used to Believe (And What We Know Now)

Marisa Silva and Vanessa Silva Season 1 Episode 122

In this episode we’re breaking down the most common strength training myths we once lived by, explaining why they’re wrong, and sharing what actually works. From cardio-only fat loss to thinking machines were just for beginners, we’re tackling the myths that held us back in the gym. We’ll cover why lifting heavy won’t make you bulky, why soreness isn’t the only sign of a good workout, and why rest days are just as important as training days, and learn the science-backed truth behind each one. We also share how our own training has evolved over the years, moving away from chasing calorie burn to focusing on performance-based goals and building strength for life.

If you’ve ever felt confused from all the conflicting fitness advice out there, this episode will help you train smarter, build confidence in the weight room, and get results that last.
