Comparison of an aerobic dance program versus a jogging program on untrained college females

Abstract

Forty-six untrained female Ss were studied to determine if the cardiovascular benefits from an aerobic dance program equaled those of a jogging program. The Ss ranged in age from 18-29 yrs and included 19 from a jogging class, 15 from an aerobic dance class and 12 from bowling classes used as a control group. Both groups trained 4 days a wk, 30 min per day for 7 wks.
