Abstract

The purpose of this case study is to determine the caloric expenditure of Cinta Dance® and compare it to running at a constant speed under the same conditions. A man and a woman completed a 45-minute Cinta Dance® session, performing a choreographed routine on a treadmill, and ran at the same speed to compare the caloric expenditure of each activity. Caloric expenditure was measured using the BodyMedia SenseWear calorimeter. Possible induced mood changes were analyzed by means of the Scale for Mood Assessment (EVEA) and parameters of perceived muscular and cardiorespiratory fatigue through a Borg Scale. For both subjects, the Cinta Dance® activity resulted in a higher caloric expenditure than that produced during continuous running, with a difference of 201.58 kcal in the case of the male and 57.08 kcal in the case of the female. Cinta Dance® decreases the state of sadness-depression and increases joy after the session in both sexes, and, in addition, it incurs a greater cardiorespiratory and muscular fatigue in comparison to continuous running. Therefore, Cinta Dance® is classified as a high intensity dance exercise. We conclude that Cinta Dance® can be one more aerobic activity with which to increase caloric expenditure.
