Benefits of Dancing For Weight Loss
Dancing is a terrific way for people of all ages to lose weight, stay in shape and have a great time. Dancing is fun and is a great weight loss tool. Here are some benefits of dancing.
When you dance, your body will naturally become more flexible. The reason is that many types of dance require that your body has a full range of motion. When one increases their range of motion, they become more flexible. As you dance, you become more flexible (even without trying).
Strength can be defined as the body's ability to exert force against resistance. When you dance, you will increase your strength by forcing muscles to resist body weight (think plyometrics or jump training). Many genres of dance require the dancer to jump and launce their bodies off the ground. This will naturally increase the lean muscle mass in your legs, which will increase overall strength in your body.
Dancing is a great aerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise is where your heart rate increases above a certain beats per minute which naturally causes your body to start burning calories for energy, instead of storing calories for fat. When you're dancing, your heart rate will increase, which will trigger your metabolism to start burning calories for energy. Since your heart is beating faster, you will increase the oxygen in your red blood cells, which will increase your overall stamina.
The most important benefit of dance is that it's enjoyable. Most exercise routines are not fun as they become mundane and routine after the first week. Dancing is a great way to meet people and increase your social network. Also, when you exercise, you increase the endorphins in your body which will naturally make you feel great. - 17273
