    I would just log it as aerobic. It can range from low to high impact depending on your pace. That's how I log it. :)
  • I love my Zumba dvds but yeah I just put it in as aerobic or dancing.

    ive always logged it as circuit training, general. my instructor does it that way, anyway. rather than high intensity the entire time, she does high, low, high, low. which, in turn, burns more calories. :bigsmile: i can burn anywhere from 500-900 cals per class depending on the day.
  • I have a heart rate monitor that I wear to track the calories
