Are you bored of exercising alone? Don’t get discouraged! There are plenty of group classes offered at all gyms. The classes vary from body pump to Zumba. No matter what level of fitness you are at you can join any of these classes. Beginners are usually in the back of the class and advance are usually in the front. If I’m in the mood for dancing then I go to a Zumba class and if I’m in the mood to give my muscles a hard work out then I go to a body pump class.
A Zumba class incorporates aerobics and high energy. You can burn between 400 to 900 calories depending on how much effort you put in. What you put into a work out is what you get out of it. If you already made it to the gym then might as well burn as many calories as possible, this will get you faster results and make your work out efficient. Body pump is less aerobics and more body sculpting. Both aerobics and weight lifting are important if you want to become lean. It is a good idea to take these classes if you are a beginner. The instructors of these classes are professional trainers and can help you with your form and give free advice on dieting.
When you work out in a group you tend to be more motivated. Anne Fritz, author of TheBenefits of Group Exercise, agrees that working out as a group is better. An example of a benefit is the others in the class may cheer you on to push a little harder. It is a great way to work out. In my case, when a work out becomes intense I look over to the person next to me and realize that they are doing the same exercise, therefore I can do it too.
