Aerobics:a Fun and Effective Way to Exercise

The video tutorial introduces aerobics, explaining its scientific basis as exercises requiring oxygen. It traces the history of aerobics from its development by Dr. Kenneth Cooper and Colonel Pauline Potts for the U.S. Army to its popularization by Jane Fonda in the 1980s. Aerobics classes are described as group sessions led by an instructor, often set to upbeat music, focusing on flexibility, strength, and endurance. The typical aerobics routine includes warm-up, cardio, muscle conditioning, and cool-down phases, lasting 40 minutes to an hour, and can be performed anywhere.
