Chinese scientists conducted a study that found dancing can make the weight loss process more enjoyable. The results were published in the journal PLOS ONE.
Dancing proves to be more effective compared to gym workouts. During dance, a person does not focus on fatigue, which allows them to train longer and enjoy the process more.
To reach this conclusion, researchers analyzed ten scientific papers. Dancing can help both people with slight excess weight and those who are already diagnosed with obesity. Provided that proper nutrition is followed, dancing contributes to increased muscle tone and improved coordination.
Which dances are best for weight loss? Hip-hop and breakdancing. At the same time, a lesser effect is observed in those who prefer folk dances, as they have a less effective impact on body composition.
