So experience of other dance forms is a good idea.

Because muscle is heavier than fat, dancers weigh more than you might think, but they are usually very lean.

You can't reduce lactic acid, but you can increase your tolerance to it. I do this through running or cycling, but it's a good idea to match your training bout to the type of dance you do.

You increase muscle bulk by training against resistance. For example, weights. And in ballet, this isn't the case.

I always recommend a sensible diet, including lots of carbohydrates and avoiding too much fat. Dancers don't need different fuel from other people - they just need more of it because they use more energy.
