Natural Health, May-June, 2003
MUSIC IS MORE THAN ENTERTAINING. It may be the latest workout tool. In a recent study, researchers tracked men and women in a walking-based physical rehabilitation program and found that those who listened to music walked 24 percent farther than those who didn't.
Music prevented the exercisers from focusing on how breathless they felt, explains Gerene Bauldoff, Ph.D., R.N., the lead researcher and an assistant professor at the Ohio State University College of Nursing in Columbus. And listening to a good rhythm doesn't just help walkers. Bauldoff believes it can inspire all types of exercisers to extend their workouts.
