False Information

Be careful who you take advice from.. There's a vast amount of health & fitness information available on the internet today. However, finding a reliable source of factual information can be tricky. It's hard to decipher which information is true and which is false, when everyone is claiming to be an expert. Social media is notorious for spreading false information, and it usually spreads fast. Rick (self proclaimed fitness expert) sends Becky a fitness meme (which is incorrect). Becky admires Rick, so she immediately believes his meme to be true. She then sends the meme to all of her friends, explaining how it's the best thing since sliced bread because Rick said so. In a matter of a few minutes, a dozen or so people now believe a completely false fitness fact. The moral of the story is.. never accept health & fitness advice as factual, without confirming the source of the information first.
