i did a 60 min free zumba video i found online.... i logged it under dance on the tracker.... do you think that was about right, or is there something more accurate i should classify it as?

    That should be close. With Zumba it is hard to tell because it depends on the difficultly of th moves and your effort level. I would say my Zumba class is moderate and my bodybugg usually says I burn about 9calories a minute and I weigh around 160. Hope this helps. I usually count mine under high impact aerobics.
