Has anyone used the Zumba workouts? How long did it take to see any results?

  • I Just started taking a Zumba class so nothing yet but I will let you know
  • I have Zumba for the Wii and I absolutely love it! Its so much fun. But I can't say that I've been doing it faithfully and eating right so no results yet really except for the workouts seem a little easier. Must be getting better with cardio!

    I don't know.... I have yet to be faithful to my zumba workouts. I CAN tell you that THE FIRM will get you fast results if you follow it w/ your diet program. :flowerforyou:

    It definitely gives you a workout! I still need to wear my HRM to see exactly how much I burn. I use an elliptical too so hard to say how well the Zumba works but if it makes me sweat it must work!!

    I have been taking classes 2x a week at the local YMCA they last 55 min for maybe 2 mo and when I work out I use the elliciptal but from the Zumba classes I can see alot of change in my core. Its alot of hips. I love going to class its fun and you focus more on learing the rutine vs "working out"
  • Zumba is great!!! It works on all areas of the body and you are having so much fun you really don't notice you are working out. The infomercials are true. I noticed a change with a couple weeks in the way my clothes fit. I do it twice a week for an hour. Join the party!

    I love Zumba. I burn anywhere from 600 to 800 calories in an hour. As for results...I do Zumba along with tons of other cardio and strength training and in 25 weeks I've lost 49 pounds. I give tons of credit to Zumba because it's exercise that I LOVE doing.
  • WEL THE GYM IM GOING TO NOW. THEY HAVE ZUMBA CLASSES. AND IM TAKING IT TONIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME.

    THE PEOPLE UP THERE HAD TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD SOME OF THOSE WATCHES THAT SHOW YOU HOW MANY CALORIES YOU BURN, AND THEY SAID THEY GET UP TO 800 - 1000 LBS EACH TIME
  • If you work yourself hard and have a great instructor, You will start seeing things move around in only a few weeks. Zumba Toning is great too, I usually alternate.

    Good Luck to you and go put the zoom zoom into your boom boom! :wink:

    I started Zumba around the middle of January and that, combined with cutting out soda, helped me lose 12 pounds so far :)

    I started the Zumba 10 day Challenge last Tuesday and that next week I saw some changes, and this was before my 10th day... So I definately recommend it.
