Effect of Aerobic Dance on Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Pregnant Women: A Randomised Controlled Trial

Introduction: It is recommended that healthy pregnant women should undertake moderate physical activityfor 30 minutes on most days of the week throughout pregnancy 1,4. The aim of the present study was toevaluate the effect of a 12-week programme of twice-weekly aerobic dance classes, in addition to 30 minutesof moderate self-imposed physicalactivity on the remaining week days, on cardiorespiratory fitness inprimiparous women.Material and Method: This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized controlledtrial comparing agroup undertaking aerobic exercise with a non-exercising control group.Results and Conclusion: This study showed that a 12-week aerobic dance programme had no effecton cardiorespiratory fitness in pregnant women. It has been reported that even small improvements incardiorespiratory fitness may cause an overall lower mortality rate in adults24,25.

Effects of Aerobic Dance on Cognition in Older Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Regular aerobic exercises could improve global cognition in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), such as aerobic dance a type of commonly practiced aerobic exercises. However, its effects remain debatable in improving the cognitive function in patients with MCI. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate the effects of aerobic dance on cognitive function among older adults with MCI. We searched articles in the MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase, and The Cochrane Library databases from inception to 28 February 2019, with the following criteria: 1) randomized controlled trials; 2) older adults with MCI; 3) aerobic dance intervention. Five studies of 842 participants were identified. This meta-analysis showed that aerobic dance can significantly improve global cognition (Mini-Mental State Examination: MD = 1.43; 95% CI:[0.59, 2.27]; p = 0.0009; Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale: MD=-2.30; 95% CI:[-3.60, -1.00]; p = 0.0005), and delayed recall ability (SMD = 0.46;95% CI: [0.30, 0.62]; p < 0.00001) in older adults with MCI. In addition, have positive effects on improving executive function (Trial-Making Test A: MD = -2.37;95% CI:[-4.16, -0.58]; p = 0.010; Trial-Making Test B: MD = -16.0; 95% CI: [-30.03, -2.11]; p = 0.020) and immediate recall ability (SMD = 0.24;95% CI: [0.01, 0.46]; p = 0.04). Aerobic dance significantly improves global cognitive function and memory in older adults with MCI. In addition, it also benefits executive function. However, due to the limitations as the review states, more randomized controlled trials with better study design and larger sample sizes should be conducted in the future research to make it much clearer.

Effects of Aerobic Dance on Cardiovascular Level and Body Weight among Women

Aerobic dance has becoming a popular mode of exercise especially among women due to its fun nature. With a catchy music background and joyful dance steps, aerobic dancers would be able to have fun while sweating out. Depending on its level of aggressiveness, aerobic may also improve and maintain cardiorespiratory fitness other than being a great tool for weight loss. This study intends to prove that aerobic dance activity can bring the same, if not better impacts on health than other types of cardiovascular exercise such as jogging and cycling. The objective of this study was to evaluate and identify the effect of six weeks aerobic dance on cardiovascular fitness and weight loss among women. This study, which was held in Seremban Fit Challenge, used a quasiexperimental design. The subjects selected include a total of 14 women (n = 14) with age (32.4 years old ± 9.1), weight (65.93 kg ± 11.24) and height (165.36 ± 3.46) who joined the Seremban Fit Challenge Season 13. The subjects were asked to join an aerobic dance class with a duration of one hour for six weeks in a row. As for the outcome, cardiovascular fitness was measured with a 1-mile run test while any changes on weight were measured using the weighing scale. The result showed that there was a significant difference between pre and post-test for cardiovascular fitness when p = 0.02 < 0.05 and weight loss when p = 0.00 < 0.05. In conclusion, a six-week long aerobic dance program would have a positive effect on cardiovascular fitness and weight. Therefore, aerobic dance may be used as an alternative for people who wish to lead a healthy lifestyle in a fun way. Keywords—Aerobic dance, cardiovascular fitness, weight loss,

Effect of aerobic dance on lipoprofile of middle aged women

The present study was to investigate the effect of Aerobic dance on lipids and lipoproteins of middle-aged women. Twenty female subjects were selected randomly from port Blair, Andaman and Nicobar Island. They were divided into two groups of ten subjects each out of which group I (n=10), and Group II (n=10) acted as control and experimental group. The experimental group underwent Aerobic dance and control group did not attend any special training. The experimental design of this study was random group design. In this statistical analysis the pre, post and adjusted post test means of control and experimental groups were tested for significance by applying ANCOVA. In all the cases, to test the significance, 0.05 level of confidence was used. The result of the study indicates that the HDL cholesterol of experimental group increased significantly compared with their control group and significant decrease in triglycerides and LDL cholesterol levels due to Aerobic dance.

Effect of aerobic dance on pain, functional disability and quality of life on patients with chronic low back pain

Low back pain (LBP) is often an indication of pathologicalcondition of the intervertebral discs, vertebral bodies or supporting soft tissuesof the lower vertebral region. Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP) presents withenormous consequence on the general performance of the sufferer, exerting ahuge cost on the individual, the family and the society. Dance therapy is arelatively new approach in the management of low back pain. This study wastherefore designed to investigate the effect of dance therapy on pain, functionaldisability and quality of life in patients with chronic low back pain.Thirty subjects diagnosed with non-specific CLBP particpated in the study.They were randomly divided into 2 groups, A and B, each comprising 15 subjects.In addition to conventional physiotherapy programme given to both groups,subjects in Group A also received aerobic dance, which comprised a four stage protocol. The entire treatment routinewas administered in a group session three times weekly consecutively for six weeks. Data as obtained in the copies ofcompleted questionnaires (Roland Morris Diability questionnaires and Nottingham Health Profile questionnaires) andother measurements were summarized using mean, standard deviation and frequency tables. Student T-test was used toanalyze the data at 95 % confidence interval.There was a statistically significant difference (p&lt;0.05) between the pre- and post- intervention scores for painintensity, functional disability and quality of life within the groups. There was also a statistically significant difference(p&lt;0.05) in the mean change (pre/post intervention) scores between Group A and Group B for pain intensity,functional disability and quality of life. Also the opinions and testimonies given by participants formed part of theevidence-based data.Whereas both conventional physiotherapy and aerobic dance showed significant effects in the pre/post-interventionscores, the aerobic dance group reported more significant effect in all studied parameters of pain intensity, functionaldisability and quality of life.

Effects of Aerobic Dance on the Cardiovascular Endurance of Adults with Intellectual Disabilities

The purpose was to determine the effects of a 12-week, 3-days/week low-impact aerobic dance program on the cardiovascular endurance (CVE) of adults with intellectual disabilities (ID). The experimental group (8 males, 7 females) were adults (M age = 39) receiving employment training at a sheltered workshop. The control group (7 males, 5 females) were adults (M age = 37) affiliated with the same facility but employed offsite. Rockport Fitness Walking Test (RFWT) data were collected five times (pretest, and at 4, 8, 12, and 18 weeks). Repeated measures ANOVAs indicated that the experimental group performed significantly better than the control group on RFWT heart rates on the 8- and 12- week trials and on RFWT walk times at the posttest. Once the 12-week program was over, participants did not exercise. Follow-up measurements at 18 weeks revealed no significant differences between groups.

Effects of Aerobic Dance and Progressive Relaxation on Improving Physical Fitness of High School Girls

108 high school girls were assessed to determine if exercise alone or in combination with relaxation training affected their physical fitness. Resting heart rate, recovery heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood-pressure readings were pretest and posttest measures. Statistically significant interactions occurred for recovery heart-rate scores but changes could not solely be attributed to treatment. Although resting and recovery heart-rate scores were reduced following treatment in both groups, results were nonsignificant. It was recommended that physical education units be longer than 4 wk. in length when significant fitness improvements are desired.

The Effects of Aerobic Dance on Cardiovascular Fitness

In brief: This study examined the effects of an aerobic dance program on the cardiovascular fitness of 16 women. The women participated in a 60-minute dance session three days a week for six weeks. Body weight, resting and working heart rates, blood pressure, and distance covered on Cooper's 12-minute field performance test were measured before and after the study. The women showed significant improvement on Cooper's test and a significant decrease in mean resting heart rate. It was concluded that an aerobic dance program can be an effective way to improve cardiovascular fitness.

ECG effects of aerobic dance: a study of five exercise-conditioned young women.

Monitoring of the heart rate of five healthy well-conditioned women during an aerobic dance routine showed that maximum rates were within acceptable limits for exercise tachycardia except in one subject, who had paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia that subsequently converted to sinus tachycardia. Thus, although aerobic dance seems a benign form of exercise, it can be intense enough to trigger dysrhythmias. Before recommending or approving it for any patient, the physician should take into consideration the person's age, health, and physical fitness level.
