Zumba Vs. Turbo Jam

lcanady

I love each of these workouts and I can find info on the calories that Turbo burns, but not on Zumba. Does anyone have any idea how many calories 20 min and 45 min of zumba generally burns. I have used the dance/twist item before on MF tracker, but feel that it burns alittle more that 289 calories in 45 mins. Anyone? thoughts?????

Thanks, Libby

The infomercial claims you can burn up to 1000, doing the dvd, the only sure way to know is heart rate monitor.
because it depends on you and how much effort you putting into the dance.
I heard of zumba coming out in Wii, that i think will be challenging because its more like a game and your forced to the moves right or according to what the vitural instructor says.
zumba wii comes out in nov.

Thanks for the info. I do use my wii- Personal trainer so maybe I would like Zumba we. All I know is that I walk away from Zumba feeling tired, sweaty, and SEXY! I know that I have worked it- I just wanna see the numbers ! Thanks again!
