Aerobics originated from which sport?
In modern society, aerobics is very popular, and many women like to do aerobics after work. Conceptually speaking, aerobics is a kind of sports with music as accompaniment, physical exercise as the basic means and aerobic exercise as the basis, so as to achieve the purpose of improving health, shaping body and entertainment. Aerobics can help people control their weight, lose weight, improve their figure, and at the same time enhance their coordination and sense of rhythm. So, which sport did aerobics originate from?

In fact, aerobics originated in the 1970s, when the English name of aerobics was "Aerobics", which means aerobic exercise or fitness aerobics in Chinese. In the early 1980s, jane fonda, an American fitness expert and movie star, published a book called jane fonda Healthy Art based on her own experience, which immediately caused a sensation around the world. Concerned about this book, jane fonda has caused an aerobics craze all over the world according to his experience of changing from "dieting" and "drugs" to using aerobics. Since 1970, aerobics has been formally introduced to China and has become popular rapidly. Today, aerobics is still an important way for women to keep fit.

In fact, aerobics can be divided into two categories, fitness aerobics and competitive aerobics. Let me introduce these two kinds of aerobics to you respectively:

The first is aerobics. As the name implies, aerobics is aimed at "fitness". This kind of aerobics is characterized by simple movements and strong practicability. On the premise of ensuring a certain exercise load, the action is not repeated.

Then there is competitive aerobics. Simply put, competitive aerobics is used for competition, and it has a complete set of action forms. Competitive aerobics is much more difficult than fitness aerobics, which can be divided into men's singles, women's singles, mixed doubles, mixed threes and mixed sixes.

In a word, aerobics originated from aerobic exercise.
