So i went out and bought a new HRM (ps I love it) but it says I just burned 870 calories doing the Zumba (kinect) for 50 minutes.......can this be right? I am 173 lbs. Please advise!

    I have a friend who is similar to your build who routinely posts 700-800 cal burns from doing Zumba classes with an HRM - Not that I know from experience, but I've seen similar numbers. Hope that helps a little. :)
