3. Why did you learn street dance?

1. Hip-hop makes people pay attention, have strong interest, and have beautiful and casual movements. At the same time, street dance also has the function of slimming, because street dance is a low-intensity aerobic exercise, and the function of consuming whole body fat is quite strong in an hour's exercise.

2, street dance is a small muscle exercise, regular practice can increase the coordination of the whole body, so that your body proportion is more standard. At present, many fitness centers in Shenzhen have street dance classes. Seeing so many fashionable men and women wearing wide-leg pants and tight T-shirts, or narcissistic or obsessed with all kinds of motions of waving their hands and twisting their hips, I feel like I am in a disco.

Fourth, the matters needing attention in learning street dance

1, when you first learn street dance, you must not increase your exercise at once, but step by step. Usually do warm-up activities first to connect all joints and ligaments of the body.

2, especially the knees and ankles should be fully active to avoid injury when jumping; Then enter a certain intensity and time of practice, preferably not less than 30 minutes; Finally, use various stretching exercises to relax the body. Only in this way can we achieve better slimming effect.

Because everyone's age, physique and health are different, everyone's exercise intensity is also different. "Exercise intensity" is generally expressed by "maximum heart rate", so you should calculate the most suitable heart rate when dancing street dance.
