CNBC AI News, August 14th – Could belting out your favorite tunes actually be a secret weapon in the fight against the bulge? Recent reports suggest just that, turning the spotlight on an unexpected calorie-torching activity: karaoke!
A woman from Nanjing, China, recently took to social media to share her surprising experience. After a solo two-hour singing session at a karaoke bar, she discovered she’d shed a whopping 3.6 pounds (approximately 1.6 kilograms) overnight, sparking a flurry of online interest.
Inspired by similar posts online, she decided to test the “singing for weight loss” theory herself.
“My fitness tracker indicated I burned about 350 calories during the two-hour performance, which is actually less than what others have reported,” she wrote. The dramatic weight loss the next day, however, was a complete surprise.
Experts weigh in, noting that singing can indeed be considered a form of aerobic exercise. The act of singing elevates heart rate and strengthens pulmonary function, potentially contributing to fat burning.
However, experts caution against solely relying on karaoke as a primary weight loss strategy. While singing offers some cardiovascular benefits, it’s likely not as effective as traditional aerobic exercises like jogging or running. The enjoyment factor, though, might give singing an edge. The sheer fun and emotional release experienced while singing could lead to greater consistency and potentially boost metabolism.
