Hi all,

I love dancing not that I am pro by any means lol, but how long daily would I need to move for weight loss to show up on the scales?
 
Depends on how much you are eating, and how rigorously you are dancing
 
Like MR said, depends on the dance-style. If you're doing the foxy, you're not burning much, but if you're break-dancing or pole-dancing, then you're burning a whole lot more.


And, also like MR said, it's also about calories in!
 
Try Zumba together with a healthy diet and you're set. But yeah, at the end of the day it's calories in vs. calories out.
 
Thank You for your replys well I am moving and eating less and subsequently feeling less hungry... make sense???:gnorsi:
 
Medically it was proved that dancing practices are also more helpful for weight loss or a active life it helps to burn more number of unwanted calories from our body and helps to maintain a better metabolism, so regular dancing practices are helps to maintain a ideal body weight.
 
It's important to move as much as you can. The best exercise is something you enjoy and will do on a regular basis, so if you enjoy dancing, it's a fun way for you to get your exercise. When I was in my 20's I spent a lot of time dancing at the clubs with my friends. Back then I never had a weight problem, and the dancing probably had a lot to do with it.
 
Well if you do something that requires alot of energy like a hip hop dance, you will lose alot more calories but most importantly you have to check your diet. Most people tend to underestimate the power of effective dieting.


Good luck.
 
Hi I have gone from a size 14-16 to a size 12 in 4 weeks I have only been working out 3 times a week and I haven't really changed much of my eating habits! I have a personal trainer and she gives me work outs to do at home for 20 minutes every morning I do them sometimes when I remember but I notice when I train with her I feel really good and the exercises she makes me do I have never seen them before but they are really effective I didn't think I would loose so many inches so quickly I am so happy and definitely carry on training with her
 
That's great Looseinches.

Can you describe some of those exercise moves so that some of us here can give them a go.

I'm hooked on zumba and salsa and dance pretty much every day.
 
Yes, you can use dance to lose weight. This is because dancing brings motion to all part of he body which lead to sweating. This is how running also works
