    I normally go twice a week on Sunday and Wednesday. One week, I went four times but I think thats just too hard on my joints and its easier for me if I can stick to not trying out too many instructors. I love Sunday cause she does a lot of repetive songs and I get more of a workout if I am not overly confused.

    I get SUPER bored with dvds. Even though I'm horribly clumsy and swore I wouldn't go, I have found it VERY supportive, fun, and we go for 1 hour. In that hour I burn approx. 743 calories. That makes the hour SO WORTH IT!

    I teach 10X a week. It's pretty much helped me lose most of the weight. Plus strength training and moderating food intake :)

    Just started Zumba on Monday. Yesterday was my second time. The place I go has the classes on Mondays and Thursdays and therefore, I plan on doing Zumba twice a week. I can tell you that I LOVE it even though my body is hurting pretty badly right now. I was surprised at how the 2nd time seemed harder then the first time. So much fun though. LOVE swinging my hips and trying to feel sexy when I'm overweight. Someday I'll be doing that when I'm NOT overweight. :bigsmile:

    The Exhilarate dvd's are great (especially Exhilarate and Mix). I do it 2-3 times a week varying it with Jillian Michaels or a biggest loser dvd. It's good to do a little "fun" workout every other day.

    If you have a heart rate monitor you can log in calories burned. However, if your like me and you don't have one you kind have to guestimate. I put it as Aerobics (low or high), however hard the dvd/class is. According to online sites I might be burning more than that, but since I don't have a heart rate monitor I don't know for sure. Until I can buy one I'd rather underestimate than overestimate.
