Zumba, a dance-based aerobic exercise, is increasingly popular among women. Research published in the ‘International Journal of Obesity’ has found that women who combined Zumba with a healthy diet lost an average of 4 to 6 pounds over a 12-week period. It also significantly reduced central obesity markers. Adds another study, which appears in the journal ‘Journal of Nutritional Health & Food Engineering’, dancing is a mode of physical activity that may allow older adults to improve their physical function, health and wellbeing. Zumba fitness is an effective interval-style, full-body dance workout with built-in variety. Equally important is the fact that Zumba classes are entertaining which means you burn calories and get fit while enjoying Latin dancing. Regular Zumba may serve as an effective, enjoyable, and sustainable strategy for weight management, especially among young and middle-aged women.
