Oh Yeon-seo, who weighs 48kg, says she does this exercise without missing a day.

Actress Oh Yeon-seo (37) revealed her secret to maintaining her body. According to his profile, his height is 170cm and his weight is 48kg.

On the 29th, Oh Yeon-seo posted several photos of herself in ballet uniform through her SNS account with the message, “Attendance this month as well.”

In the released photo, Oh Yeon-seo shows off her beautiful body and is immersed in ballet practice. His love for ballet is so great that he practiced every single day this month.

Ballet that burns calories and trains muscles in a balanced way

Ballet, which Oh Yeon-seo does every day, uses the entire body, including arms, legs, waist, and core, so it burns a lot of calories and develops muscles in a balanced manner. Continuing to use your muscles increases muscle mass, which increases your basal metabolic rate and helps you burn more calories.

When the muscles are balanced while doing ballet like this, the curved spine and distorted pelvis are straightened, and the lines of the body become more beautiful. Also, because it uses the inner muscles of the lower body, you can make your buttocks more elastic.

Ballet is an exercise that improves muscle flexibility. Increasing flexibility will make your body’s overall movements smoother, reduce your risk of injury, and allow you to continue exercising. Additionally, stretching before and after ballet moves makes your body look longer and slimmer.

Lack of flexibility increases the risk of injury… Avoid if you have severe joint disease

If you know that ballet, which looks elegant, requires quite high intensity of exercise. Ballet’s fast, sustained movements increase heart rate, increase oxygen supply to the body, improve cardiovascular health, and are effective in burning fat.

In fact, according to ‘Study on exercise intensity and energy consumption according to the level of female college students’ ballet performance’ published in the Journal of the Korean Dance Society in 2014, the energy consumption of ballet is higher than that of running. Even considering that the works tested in the paper are comprised of fast tempos and intense movements, such as jumping and turning from the beginning, the momentum is very high.

The energy consumption of the work used in the study was found to be 12.12 kcal per minute. This is higher than a person weighing 50kg running 200m per minute (10.8kcal). In particular, because ballet uses a lot of muscles, you can expect an ‘afterburn effect’ that allows you to continue burning calories even after exercise.

However, it is dangerous to attempt difficult movements like Oh Yeon-seo when you are not prepared. This is because lack of flexibility and strength can lead to poor posture and injury. If you feel pain while doing ballet, it is best to lower your exercise intensity or take a break. If you suffer from severe joint disease, it is best to avoid ballet itself.
