This stunning revelation is from the 2007 physical activity
guidelines of the American Heart Association and the American
College of Sports Medicine:
"It is reasonable to assume that persons with relatively high daily
energy expenditures would be less likely to gain weight over time,
compared with those who have lower energy expenditures. ****So far,
data to support this hypothesis are not particularly compelling."

Not hazarding a guess about calories and weight relationship. Just
movement we must move or we die. Think of bed sores for a brief
moment. Yuk .
Then there is dance a celebration of life. So move move move.
Shake your booty.

Thanks, Bill. I like your refreshing and non-formal way to look at things.
:-)
I do not know what I am talking about. Yet something says move. Feels
right !

A randomized controlled trial of Turkish folklore dance on the physical
performance, balance, depression and quality of life in older women.

The present study has been carried out to investigate the effects of
group-based Turkish folkloric dances on physical performance, balance,
depression and quality of life (QoL) in 40 healthy adult elderly females
over the age of 65 years. Subjects were randomly allocated into Group 1
(folkloric dance-based exercise) and Group 2 (control). A 8-week
dance-based exercise program was performed. Outcome measures included a
20-m walk test, a 6-min walk test, stair climbing and chair rise time,
Berg balance scale (BBS), the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) 36-item short
form health survey (SF-36), and geriatric depression scale (GDS)
questionnaires. In Group 1 statistically significant improvements were
found in most of the physical performance tests, BBS and some SF-36
subscales after the exercise (p<0.05). In the Group 2 there was no
clinically significant change in the variables. Comparing the groups,
significant improvements in favor of Group 1 have emerged in most of the
functional performance tests, in some of the SF-36 subscales and BBS
score (p<0.05). We achieved improvements in physical performance,
balance and QoL in elderly females. Application of folkloric dance
specific to countries as an exercise program for elderly people may be
helpful.
