Dancing (Weight Bearing or Nonweight Bearing)
Dancing may help:
◆Tone your muscles.
◆Improve your flexibility.
◆Make your heart stronger.
◆Make your lungs work better.
You can dance in a health club, in a nightclub, or at home. To dance at home, just move your body to some lively music!
Dancing on your feet is a weight-bearing activity. Dancing while seated is a nonweight-bearing activity. Sometimes called chair dancing, this activity lets you move your arms and legs to music while taking the weight off your feet. This may be a good choice if you cannot stand on your feet for a long time.
