Is Aerobics really good for your body or bad for your joints? You hear people say all the time, let's join aerobic classes to get fit but there is another side to it. This is what some people are saying:
“Aerobics was all the rage in early-to-mid 1980s and people spent the next two decades pounding their joints,” she said. Together with the aging of the Baby Boomers, aerobics may have contributed to the need for a joint-friendly, healthy form of exercise.
This is the main reason, some experts are pushing Pilates instead of aerobics. The program is designed to integrate the health of the mind and the body, through whole body training instead of targeting specific muscle groups. And, it is a toning system that results in a body type more akin to a dancer than a body-builder.
Do you agree Pilates are better than aerobics?
