    Study Notes

    Dancing and Physical Health

    • Dancing serves as an enjoyable physical activity that provides a full-body workout.
    • Prior to engaging in various dance genres, it's essential to assess personal health status to optimize energy levels.

    Food Fuels for Energy

    • Carbohydrates: Major energy source; obtained from starch and sugar.
    • Glucose: Main blood sugar, critical for cellular energy.
    • Glycogen: Stored glucose form, made of interconnected glucose molecules.
    • Fats: Provides energy, aids in vitamin storage; found in meat, dairy, and vegetable oils.
    • Proteins: Essential for tissue building and repair; sources include meat, fish, eggs, and legumes.

    Understanding Energy

    • Energy: Defined as the ability to perform work.
    • ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate): Primary energy carrier in the body, vital for tissue repair, hormone production, digestion, and nerve function.
    • Glycolytic System: Breaks down glucose for quick energy, but has limited capacity.
    • Oxidative System: Utilizes oxygen to produce ATP, suitable for sustained energy during extended activities.

    Nutrition Strategies for Performance

    • Fuel the body with balanced meals that incorporate complex carbohydrates, lean proteins, and healthy fats.
    • Maintain hydration with ample water intake throughout the day, particularly around exercise.

    Aerobic vs. Anaerobic Exercise

    • Aerobic Exercise: Known as cardio; relies on oxygen for muscle energy and movement.
    • Anaerobic Exercise: High-intensity workout done in short bursts; characterized by an oxygen deficit during exertion.

    Benefits of Aerobic Exercise

    • Reduces heart disease risk.
    • Improves lung function.
    • Aids in weight loss.
    • Lowers blood pressure.

    Benefits of Anaerobic Exercise

    • Develops stronger muscles.
    • Increases oxygen intake capacity.
    • Enhances endurance and fatigue resistance.
