I have been going to Zumba! class from about a month now. It says that you can burn anywhere from 600 to 1000 calories depending on how intense your workout is. How is everyone else calculating their calories burned in a high intensity cardio workout? Anyone else doing Zumba? THANKS!!!:flowerforyou:

I use a Polar Heart Rate Monitor....The zumba class i take at my gym I usually burn between 300 and 400 calories and that is me working my *kitten* off and sweating like crazy....im pretty coordinated so i do the moves pretty accurate and stuff but i dont burn as much as other people say they do!0

I love zumba and I always feel like I get a better cardio work out than in any other class, I always used to estimate at 400 calories but I was sure I was burning more so I brought a heart rate watch and my class on Friday I burnt 740 calories, happy days!!0
