When the purpose of something is unknown, abuse of all types becomes inevitable. Exercise as good as it becomes poisonous to humans when it is carried out or done without a specific goal.
Many people who perform one fitness activity or the other do so because they see other people doing it. In this case, nothing tangible is targeted, and as such, the activity may turn out to poison for them.
One of the things that make an exercise a unique one indeed is the planning, structure,and repetition that it entails but in a situation where exercise is not tailored towards achieving a specific goal it becomes poison.
Setting certain realistic goals before you embark on any exercise enables easy evaluation of the activity,and it assists in ascertaining if truly you are achieving the desired result.
