Another voice totally disagrees with the "accumulation in front of the mirror". Whether exercise and fitness have any effect mainly depends on itself. They think that the mirror will only make those imperfect people lose confidence and even refuse to go to the gym again.
A few years ago, a study published in the American Journal of Health Psychology showed that mirrors can make athletes more self-reflective, so they can better understand their own shortcomings and carry out targeted training.
However, this study also points out that some beginners will become irritable, depressed and even afraid after exercising in front of the mirror for a period of time. On the contrary, people who don't look in the mirror are more confident and calm.
From a series of discussions and research results, we can not only find the motivation of fitness from the mirror, but also find its negative effects. So, is the mirror useful for fitness?
In fact, what role the mirror plays in fitness depends on the specific exercise and experience of the trainer. Therefore, what can really play a decisive role may be ourselves.
