Fitness apps are actually useless for fitness, except for chatting with each other...

First of all, Xiao P would like to thank apps like Keep, Huo La, Fittime, and various fitness public accounts for popularizing fitness knowledge for our vast number of novice users and leading a large number of novice users into the fitness circle.

They spent a lot of money looking for various fitness experts and fitness instructors to demonstrate the correct fitness movements for us and shoot various videos and GIF animations. Let everyone see a variety of movements every day, from chest, shoulders, back, to thigh core, changing the patterns every day, without repeating for 365 days a year.

BUT! ! ! After you forward it, collect it, check in, and practice it for a week, what next? Most people don't have any more.

There is also a small number of people who "check in" on Weibo and Moments every day to show off and tell people in their Moments: I am a good baby who loves sports 👶. Only you who are lying in bed playing with your mobile phone know whether it really works.

People who really exercise have their own training plans and goals. The most you can do with these apps is post photos and chat with girls (muscle friends). The real training videos...are almost useless.

Why does Coach Xiao P say that fitness apps are useless? Because in real life, there are some problems with using fitness apps.

Are you fooled?

Do you know which ones are right and which ones are wrong?

Did you find it? Unless you are an experienced driver, it is difficult to find these errors. Then, when you imitate the movements on the app for training, such mistakes are inevitable.

Not only will incorrect movements fail to achieve the effect of body shaping and muscle building, but they may also send you to the hospital in minutes! !

The consequences of making the wrong move are serious!

Mr. Chen from Wuchang is 39 years old. He doesn’t like sports and is a bit fat. He downloaded a mobile fitness APP based on the advice of his friends. After entering his height and weight, the APP automatically generated a target weight and exercise plan, and recorded and guided his daily exercise and diet through pictures and videos. Yesterday morning, after getting up, Mr. Chen felt unbearable pain in his left arm, and was even unable to lift it normally. He rushed to the hospital for treatment and was diagnosed with muscle strain and required rehabilitation treatment.

Many people think that now there are mobile fitness software,

With this magic tool in hand, I don’t need to spend money to go to the gym or hire a personal trainer! !

The details of these movements are really not something you can see on a small screen, and the mobile fitness app will not give you any error prompts.

There is a saying: "A small error can lead to a huge mistake". If you make a small mistake in practicing an action, it may cause you a burden in the future.

As the saying goes: No brothers, no fitness!

Going to the gym with a friend or hiring a personal trainer can not only help you correct your movements, but also motivate you to stick with it. This is definitely not a free app that can replace it.

The profession of coach has its reasons for existence. If you can get into Peking University or Tsinghua University by reading books and watching videos of famous teachers, then what is the point of going to school? Why do we need teachers? Just watch the videos.

Fitness, like learning, is a process of constantly making mistakes and correcting them, which requires real-time interaction with a "coach". What you need is professional, step-by-step guidance and protection, rather than just imitating the actions on the APP.
