    I've taken Zumba twice at my gym and I am hooked. It is the best workout next to running! I didnt think my heart rate would get up there because it didnt seem like a high impact workout! Was I ever wrong! My heart rate is up there as if I am running on the treadmill.

    And the class is so much fun you don't even look at the time!!!

    Go for it!

    I have worn a heart rate monitor and when I first started I was burning over 700 calories an hour in Zumba! Now, I'm in better shape and weigh less, but I still burn 600 an hour on average! and it is FUN!!!

    Zumba is the best workout! It is so much fun and it is cardio plus an amazing core work out! I wore my hrm to class and it was at 100% almost the whole time!

    I also have it for wii and it is really good as well...the kids even like it!

    You know it's an amazing workout when your totally in shape instructor who teaches 4 or 5 classes a day is sweating her "balls" off!:wink:

    I looked at this post for my own selfish purposes.
    Do you think if people don't particularly like dancing they will enjpy it?

    It depends on the person, the instructor and the routine. I like it because its a fun, quick workout. The hour goes by really quick and I burn alot of calories..a little over 600.

    Zumba is my "fun" workout. I look forward to it all week long. It's the reason I get out of bed before lunch on Saturday mornings. It does absolutely depend on the instructor. I have two that alternate Saturdays. One is a very strenuous workout, the other just a fun booty-shaking time. But either way, I enjoy it. And if I find from my heart rate monitor that I didn't get enough out of it, I just hit the treadmill or elliptical to make up the difference before strength training.

    I just started Wii Zumba a couple of weeks ago, and I'm hooked. I can't quite keep up (two left feet!), but it's getting better. At least I'm laughing all the way!

    Any other workout feels like "work" When I know its time for a Zumba class, it's a "TREAT" Totally FUN, best workout ever!!
