What’s the connection between Music and workout? There must
be some connection as we can hear music in every Gym, workout area, dance
classes etc. Here is what we think, Music sets your body in rhythm then be it a
soothing music you hear when you do yoga or a good peppy number to dance on.
Well not only yoga or dance, people who do gym workout
with weights listen to different music.
We often see people in gym roaming around with headphones, also all the
gyms have a good sound system. When people look for gym they do look at the
sound system and the kind of music which is played.
Also at times there are people who don’t connect with
certain type of music and are not able to work out in the gym.
So, we asked Anand, who teaches Zumba and works out to
stay fit. And since dance is his Passion music is an integral part of his life.
Here is what he has to say
“Well you are asking the wrong person about music. As you
rightly said music is a part of life, rather it’s like I breathe through music
as that’s when my body sets into a Rhythm which then translates into dance. So,
whatever I do music is a part of it, dance, workout or Zumba training.
Music sets your mind free, its helps you relax. Also, you
can listen to your choice of music whenever you are doing a workout as you must
set your body in Rhythm. The music which you listen to gives you certain
energy, especially when you lift weights and it changes your mood completely.
When I take a Zumba class, a certain set of songs are high
on energy and it just automatically reflects in the class. That’s nothing but
the music, which changes the mood completely.”
Well everyone likes different kind of music and always
have a Favourite. What’s yours?
