You see an ad for some new type of fitness
equipment and you are led to believe, by the
host of the T.V. infomercial, or author of the
magazine ad that these"buffed" models got
that way from that piece of equipment.

The truth is that most of these people
were in good shape to begin with and have
spent several months preparing for this one
day to get filmed, or have pictures taken.
People who look that good know what they
are doing and have certain routines they follow
when they need to fine tune their bodies. One
thing they usually don't tell you is that diet had
a huge effect on their shape. Next time look down
at the bottom of the page, or scroll at the
bottom of your screen during an ad for fitness
equipment and see the fine print that says "best
results when combined with a sound diet or
nutritional program".

Now please believe me when I say that I am not
being negative here about all exercise equipment,
I am just trying to give you a real review of what
is good and what you should not spend your money
on.

The great thing about blogs is that there is a freedom
of speech allowed without having to be too politically
correct. I will do my best to help you with your choices
and point you to the right direction.

If you keep in mind that at the very basic root of the
fitness business, that's exactly what it is, a business. So
companies are after the big dollars. It may be harsh to
hear that, but that's the bottom line. If they have to use
deceptive advertising, or stretch the truth and get away
with it, they will.

Next update I'm going to tell you how those models
look so good performing the exercises. It doesn't only
have to do with being in good shape!
