I tried to log Zumba class for exercise and its not under cardio exercises? I am new to MFP and also new to Zumba so I was curious, if its not on there how do I log the exercise??

I know there are others that do Zumba so I was wondering what its under in the database?

HELP???

    I tried looking for it two ways to see what would happen.

    The first spot I went to was under the Exercise tab, Exercise Diary and clicked "Add Exercise" where I can then search the database. When I type in Zumba, something comes up. But I'm wondering if that's because it's the Zumba that I created.

    But when I click on Database under the Exercise tab and search for Zumba, that's where I don't see the listing.

    I don't know if you will find it under the first option I listed, or if it is just showing up for me because I created it myself. Maybe try if you haven't, just in case??

    Otherwise I read that you can burn anywhere from 400-700 calories in an hour of Zumba. Is that what all of you that have added the class factor in?
