thePTDC.com: The 10 Most Hotly Debated Fitness Topics

These days, many fitness professionals are quick to adopt polarizing, black-and-white stances on hot topics. While sweeping generalizations do tend to stir up controversy -- thereby bringing the renegade coach/trainer to the fore in a fairly flooded market -- they also cloud the general exercising public’s judgement.

• “Will just squatting fix my wonky squat, or should I spend an hour rolling around on the floor?"

• “Are squats, deadlifts, and pull-ups enough to train my core, or do I need additional exercises that work it more directly?”

• “Does high-intensity interval training take care of all my conditioning needs, or would I be better served with steady state cardio?”
