So, I've been doing Zumba but I don't know how to log it in since I don't have a hrm or anything like that. Anyone have any suggestions what I can do?

    Dancing (Zumba) is a category you can enter your weight and how long u did it then create your own excercise and mfp will remember it and change the calories burned for you as u get smaller

    alot of zumba lovers,including myself,log it as aerobic {high impact}. used to log as dance but wasnt getting nearly as much calories burned as the zumba website says you should. although, the best option for sure is to just get a hrm.happy zumbaing!!!:smile:

    I wear an hrm everytime I teach my class. So out of curiousity, I plugged in my info to see how close this calculator is and it is pretty darn close to my avg class. Of course it may differ a little depending on intensisty but overall, a very cool an duseful tool! Thank you for sharing!! I think I may have to add it to my signature!
