2. It is better to control the time of each dance at 1-2 hours. If the time is too long, the body will be too tired, and the fitness effect will decline. If you are crazy about dancing, you can rest for about 20 minutes, kick your legs, move your ankles, bend your waist and so on, to relieve your tense muscles.

Fast four, fast three and other dance exercises are more intense, which will lead to shortness of breath, accelerated heart rate and sudden rise of blood pressure, which may induce or aggravate cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, dancers should pay attention to gradual progress from slow to urgent, from slow to fast.
4. Dancing with full stomach will affect digestion, which will make the gastrointestinal tract uncomfortable in the long run and may lead to gastrointestinal diseases.

Because when dancing, the brain is excited, the blood flow speed is accelerated, the heart load is increased, and the oxygen consumption of the human body is increased, fresh air is particularly important for the fitness effect.
