The growth of Tiktok has been exponential.
While it can be extremely entertaining, for fitness content this is why the app can be problematic…

𝟏. 𝐁𝐚𝐝 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞
No matter the social media site you go on, you will certainly encounter bad advice, however given Tiktok's demographic combined with the way in which the algorithm works, bad advice is extremely prevalent.
What you want and what you need are often different things and unfortunately, Tiktoks main focus seems to be giving users what they want; quick fixes such as the lying towel exercise, lemon coffee and ab belts to name a few of these things.

𝟐. 𝐓𝐨𝐨 𝐌𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐈𝐬 𝐁𝐚𝐝
While short and simple fitness content is lacking, absorbing too much content, often crammed into seconds probably isn’t the best idea.
Firstly; ‘everything should be made as simple as possible but no simpler’, when creators are given seconds to try and stand out on the platform this often results in oversimplification and miscommunication.
Secondly, there are many concepts in fitness which just cannot be explained in seconds.
When you receive most of your information in small fragments, it can be very difficult to understand the relative importance of each. You simply cannot go deep enough into many important concepts with tiktok which is why you should get your information from a range of places.

𝟑. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐈𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥
All social media sites are competing for your attention, often engaging in questionable activities to achieve this. The data points towards tiktok being the best at establishing addiction amongst their users.
And this addictive side of tiktok is something everyone needs to be aware of.

(Pls ignore the misspelling of exercises, somehow missed that one😅)
