The main types of fitness

The word “fitness” has an English origin (“to fit” - to correspond to something, to have a good shape) - this is a comprehensive physical form of the human body.
In essence, fitness and aerobics are a whole science. Many have a desire to be slim, healthy and beautiful, but, alas, not all of them realize it. Often, people simply cannot find the necessary time for proper nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. The reasons are very different: eternal employment, work, and simply banal laziness. After all, to allocate only 3 hours once a week is completely achievable. But what results can be achieved!


The following basic types of fitness are available.
1. Aerobics. This type of fitness, which combines exercises for the development of muscles and plastics in conjunction with respiratory movements with musical accompaniment. Aerobics helps to improve body shape and weight loss, and also has beneficial effects on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. They say that after 30 minutes as you exercise, fats begin to break down.
There are such types of aerobics:
a) classical aerobics (dance based on the repetition of certain movements of the dance);
b) slide aerobics (performed on a sliding special track);
