I was wondering how you count the exercise for this game/workout. I completed the 20 min for begginer and I counted it as Cardio dancing/modern twist... If you have it what do you count it as?????

    You can enter it as Cardio Dancing. :)

    I do it as a custom exercise. I have my heart rate monitor. I usually burn around 240 in the 20 mins. It's actually 24 mins if you do the cool down part. The HRM is the best way to tell how much you actually burn because it really could be anywhere from 200 to 300 depending on your effort and your personal body.

    This site at the link above helps you determine the calories burned doing Zumba. For beginner level, I would select "low intensity." Then to log it in MFP, go to Exercise - My Exercises - Create Exercise and add the information. Then you can use it again for another workout.
