    High Impact Cardo seems to match the calories correctly for me! :)

    You can add it to your exercise, which is what I do. I have a heart monitor to get my calories burned then you just enter that and it will be on your exercise log and you can just adjust the calories every time you do it.
  • I used the dance category, too. PS...I can't believe how hard that was! I lost a lot of water weight in a 55 minute class! Whew!

    I just got a notice for a free zumba class in my area this weekend - trying to decide if I should attempt at my fatness level. Is this something only "in-shape" people should do? It's an actual class so I'd be there with other people and I will feel horrible if I'm the fattest girl there.

    Same here! I did it for the first time yesterday and I couldn't believe the sweat dripping off me! And that was just the beginner class! Good fun, though I'm sure I looked hilarious!

    I logged it aerobics/dance I think ...

    I would go for it, If you find out that you like the activity you can always continue on or do like i did and pick it up for the Wii system if you have it. Either way you will be trying something new which is never the easiet thing to do AND who know maybe you will end up loving it like I did

    Depending on which Zumba routine I do...I log it as either Dance, aerobics or High Impact.....I love Zumba! I have it on the Kinect and the Total Transformation DVDs,,,, I can't wait to get the DVD set that just came out Zumba Exhileration!
