Dancing is not only fun but also a great workout to lose weight. To stay healthy, you need to work out for half an hour daily. But to lose weight, you need to increase the intensity or increase the duration of the workout. But before that, you have to eat fewer calories to lose weight. Cutting calories is the first step to losing weight.

Some factors that affect how you burn calories are not in your control. Age and body type are the two main factors. But no matter what your age and body type, it is certain that the more intensely you dance, the more calories you burn. Different types of dance help burn different amounts of calories. For example, Zumba dance burns more than twice as many calories as traditional Indian dance forms like Kathak.

One can burn 400 calories by dancing for an hour at the right intensity and following the right diet. People who have a high body mass index can lose two to three kilos in a week. However, people who have a low body mass index or are older can lose only one to a dead kilo in a week with dance.

Dancing is a full-body workout and fun too. So, undoubtedly, what can be better than dancing to lose weight?

Now let's talk about running. If done in the right way and at the right intensity, there is no better workout than running. It is a high-intensity exercise that helps in burning calories. Rather, even after running, your calories keep burning.

Running for weight loss is most effective when you vary the intensity of your running. Jog slowly for a while, then run faster for a while. If you do this then you can burn calories and also make muscles strong.

But you have to keep in mind how many calories you are consuming. Some people think that if they are exercising enough then they don't need to focus on calories at all. Because this exercise is burning calories and he can eat anything. But this is a myth. If you want to lose weight, then you must pay attention to your food and drink.

For long runs, it is very important to fuel yourself and maintain the electrolyte balance in the body. For runs of an hour or less, all you need to do is drink water in between. But for the long haul, you must have an energy drink.

If a person runs eight kilometers per hour, then he will be able to burn calories around 476. This is almost equal to the calories burned by dancing for one hour.
