Hi there

So I have been doing the Zumba on the Wii for about the last week and LOVE IT!

But here's the question - is it normal to have soreness while doing Zumba in the calf muscle? I mean I understand why my butt and thighs are sore :wink: But I want sure I don't start getting charley horses in my calf muscles at night.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks

    My calves get sore when I do Zumba too. All that dancing, it works all the way up and down the legs. I'm sure it will get better once you're doing it for a while longer, and I agree, water, water, water!

    My calves are sore after Zumba because I dance on my toes. Like if you were to be wearing high heels and doing the dances.

    Stretch and drink water!

    I've been doing Zumba for almost two years. Sore calves are normal for me. I do drink plenty of water & I don't get Charley horses. Keep with it! It's tons of fun!
