Perhaps you are beginning to think that signing up for the gym was not the best of your resolutions for this year, because you have been there for a couple of months and each day you are less eager. Do not despair, because perhaps you have not found the right activity to get in shape. Forget about the typical bodybuilding exercises, don’t look at the bike or the treadmill and direct your interest to one of those new and fun activities that most gyms offer.
Exercise to the rhythm of music
- For several decades now, music has been included in some sports activities as a way of motivating training. Thus, the classes are more fun and we can find alternatives as attractive as Zumba, which combines aerobic exercises with Caribbean rhythms. An ideal proposal for those people who want to make their body fat disappear while they enjoy dancing salsa or samba.
- But to the rhythm of the music we can also find proposals like the BodyJam, also based on aerobic exercises but this time to the rhythm of funk, hip hop or jazz. Although perhaps the most complete activity is the Body Pump, since it develops both strength and resistance, so its benefits are seen in the form of fat reduction, but also improvement of muscle tone.
- And an activity that we have found very curious and that we cannot miss is the Strip Dance, a new concept that combines the practice of physical exercise with erotic dancing. It seems that this activity not only reduces fat and stylizes the figure, but also brings many benefits to the stability of the couple.
Elite training
- A sports practice that is becoming fashionable comes to us directly from the United States and is based on the hard training of the Marines. It’s called TRX and it’s aimed at improving balance, coordination and flexibility, but also strength and endurance. It has the particularity that it is carried out in suspension with harnesses.
- In a similar vein, you can sign up for Tae Bo that mixes Aerobics with Taekwondo and Boxing movements, thereby improving your cardiovascular system as well as flexibility and strength. Another very similar alternative is the Aero box, half Aerobic, half Kickboxing, with which you are guaranteed to release tension.
- And if you are looking for a different exercise that, in addition to keeping fit, you are passionate about and have fun, yours is the Jukari, created by the Cirque du Soleil and which bases its fitness exercises on the typical circus trapeze. You will surely get hooked on this proposal. But to make the most of all these activities in the gym, don’t forget that before finishing your sports session you have to go to the Spa.
