    i have been putting aerobics general is this about the same?

    I know a few people have said they put it under aerobics dance, Im not sure what the differance would be though. I dont know how accurate MFP is for calculating calories burned but I have read it can underestimate them.

    Hi! I'm new, today is my first day on here and I'd love to join the zumba challenge! This morning I did 20 mins at beginner as well as 2 20 min intermediate zumba party games for a total of 1 hour! I try to do at least 45 mins a day so I beat my goal today! I'm also signed up for a class starting this Friday and running for 5 weeks and am trying to do another class for Wednesdays as well! I started doing zumba 4 weeks ago and in the last two weeks have faithfully done the workout every single day! I'm already starting to see results! Can't wait to see what a month long plan will show result wise! FUN!

    New here but I went to Zumba tonight for 1 hour! I just started last week and I'm enjoying it. I'm planning to pick up the game for the Wii and do that as well at home on days I can not go to class.

    I'm in,though to get up to three times a week I'd have to get DVDs or the wii game. Any suggestions on which is better?

    Just got home from an hour long Zumba class. :bigsmile:
    I logged it in my exercise diary as the same calories as aerobics general. I don't have a HRM, but it's my birthday at the end of July, so I think one will have to be top of my list.

    I last weighed and measured at my Curves gym two weeks ago.
    I was 155.6kgs.
    Bust 136 cm
    Waist 128 cm
    Hips 151.5 cm

    My next planned Zumba is a Curves Zumba Circuit tomorrow night. :smile:
