Hi all,
I will be buying this game today. I could not find Zumba under Cardio, though, in the Exercise tab. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could put in its place that would be comparable?

Thanks in advance!

Laurie

    I created my own exercise for Zumba since I use my HRM in class. Before that, I was logging things as "Dancing, aerobic, ballet or modern, twist." If you need to estimate calories, you can take a look at http://caloriesburnedhq.com/zumba-calories-burned/

    Just did zumba core and if I use the link below it says I burned 317 calories...but when I use dancing ballroom fast....its like low 200's. Does anybody have any idea how much 40 minutes would burn and how to log it? Thanks.

    I created mine and used my HRM..the zumba calorie counter website was way off one what I burned so I wouldn't suggest to anyone..
  • I did my first zumba core workout yesterday(: The game said that I burned 597 calories in 57 minutes, and yes I was sweating! I'm not sure how accurate it is, so I will be investing in a HRM soon!
