The Benefits/Pros of Tae-Bo
· One of the most important benefits of the Tae-Bo workout is that it helps you work out your entire body. You
will be able to sculpt, tone and improve the flexibility in your body by just doing Tae-Bo exercises.
· Since it is a very active workout routine it has incredible cardiovascular benefits. The extremely energetic
movements performed will stimulate blood circulation throughout the body.
· Due to the fact that this exercising routine is highly energetic the calorie consumption is also high. It has
been proven that one hour of a Tae-Bo workout can burn almost twice as many calories as a regular aerobic
workout.
· Since you are doing exercises and you do them on rhythmical music you will keep your interest higher that
with other exercising routines. There are a variety of movements performed throughout the Tae-Bo workout
so there isn't much room for boredom.
· Tae-Bo can be performed in the gym or in the comfort of your own home by repeating after a recorded
video. There are several Tae-Bo videos/DVDs available for you to purchase and you can even choose the level
of training.
All in all, it would seem that Tae-Bo is a class or
individual workout which is great for strength building,
muscular endurance, body toning, increasing flexibility
and the best of all cardiovascular workout. Which
means, the hotter your body temperature, the more you
sweat, the more calories you burn. For one hours work,
two or three times a week, surely it can't be bad. Can it?
If you didn't know what Tae-Bo was about before,
I hope this will encourage you to look at a clip on
YouTube to see if it entices you. Where I have a martial
arts background, I will always have a positive bias
towards it.
