Of course, for whom how, but we know that you can lose weight not only by doing fitness, but also by dancing to your favorite music. Yes, you didn’t hear it, just dancing. This type of training is called step aerobics.
Training wonders
The simplicity of such training is that you can come up with different elements of the “dance” yourself. In this case, one should also not forget about elementary exercises. Step aerobics are original sports dances. You just need to turn on your favorite piece of music and perform a couple of different elements.

Step aerobics is not only about losing weight, because with its help you will pump your abs and strengthen your leg muscles. The advantages of these trainings can also be attributed to the minimum financial investment: you do not need to buy a subscription, but it is enough to purchase a special plastic bench called a step platform. If you want to increase the load on the muscles of the shoulders, it is also recommended to use dumbbells weighing up to 2 kilograms. Remember that each element of your workout must be repeated at least 10 times.
