Abstract
The purpose of this paper isto comparison of energy expenditure, metabolic rate, and MVPA during the (Zumba class) among normal-weight, overweight and obese adult women.The researchers used the descriptive method in a comparative method to solve this problem.The sample consisted of a group of adult female participants who were chosen by the intentional method, as the number of the sample was (42) of the new female participants (first and second week) representing (34.4%) of the original population represented by (112) participants in the women’s gymnasium titanium.One of the most important results reached by the researcher is that: The processes of energy exchange and metabolism differ from one body to another in the same type of activity practiced if the body weights and structures are different, the number of steps is different in the research groups, despite the use of the same training sessions, and this indicates differences in capabilities, and it is wrong to use the same pace and quotas for Zumba sessions for all weights without allocating appropriate sessions for each category and according to the body mass index.One of the most important recommendations recommended by the researchers is that: to achieve the best desired objectives of the Zumba classes and sessions, regulated classes must be used that are proportional to the different body weights, taking into account the differences between the participants, and not to involve all the various weights in the Zumba sessions and allocate special sessions at an appropriate pace for each group of weights that are classified according to the body mass index (BMI).
