I had another 1 hour Zumba class this am, and I stayed afterwards and did the 1 hour toning class too!0

I've never done Zumba but after reading this thread I'd really like to try. What DVDs do you recommend? Do y'all prefer the Wii game to the dvds? I have a Wii and a PS3 so I am open to try whatever gives the best workout and is fun! I don't like a lot of standing around and watching...
Glad you read the post. Many participants do both meaning the games, DVDs......& even Live Zumba Classes. Do whatever motivates you just as long as you do it!!!!
Be sure to use a heart rate monitor to keep track of the calories your burning. 0 -
Today I;m taking the day off from Zumba since my gym will be closed for the Holiday. However, on Tuesday I plan to be at the Aqua Zumba class first thing in the morning

I just now saw this thread, and I know I am crazy late starting this, but I would love to join in! I am going to Disney World July 17th, so I would be thrilled to lose at least a couple pounds before I go.
I did my first Wii Zumba a week ago today. Although it was just the 20 minute beginner, I was hooked!!! The more videos I see, and workouts I do, the more I love it! I should be getting my DVD's in the mail any day as well.
Since I am leaving the 17th, I would like to do Zumba everyday, even if it's only for a few minutes.
So far --
Yesterday -- Zumba 20 min Beginner, About 30 min of Intermediate
Today -- 45 min of some beg, and some int. (Possibly more than 45... my son kept interrupting me. ) 0 -
Last week I completed three days of Zumba Sculpt and Tone and Flat Abs dvd. I also attended my first Zumbaa class. Looking forward to Zumba class this week on Wednesday and Friday!0

Brenda, don't worry, I have slacked a bit, too, the weather here in the UK is very humid, making me feel sluggish and lethargic. My little boy is also teething so I haven't had much time to myself. I have tried to mix up my workouts now, including Zumba, with running and hopefully cycling soon ! I probably do Zumba 4-5 times a week.0

Don't worry start now and see if you can loose some inches/lbs by July 13th.0 -
I'm also late, but I would love to join the challenge as well. I usually try to get to the classes on Mon., Wed, and Fri., but I guess I need to kick it up and play the game on Tues. and Thurs. as well. I just found out since I last weighed myself I'm 10 lbs lighter. I'm so excited. Keep working hard girls!0
-
blacrasberri, thanks so much! If I could just tone up a bit I would be crazy happy!
Today, I did around 45 minutes total. A mix of Intermediate and advanced. My little boy kept interrupting me, but all in all I think I got a fairly good workout in.0 -
So far today I have about 25 min of zumba in (thanks to my video game and munchkins). Hopefully after lunch and naps I can get a little more in since 60 min is my goal.0
-
Update, due to a lunch and a nap I was able to get the last 40 min in. Tommorrow is my zumba class so definately 60 min no problem!0

How do you track your calories burned for Zumba? I couldn't find it??? I have been going twice a week at the gym. The class is an hour long, and my goodness I sweat....0
-
You're supposed to track it through a calorie counter/heart rate monitor. That way you get an accurate reading of the calories burned during your zumba class. I guess it at around 500 calories per 1 hour session, though I'm always told it's usually around 600-700 per 1 hour session.0

Which Zumba DVDs are the best? I do not have a wii, but attend a great zumba class it's only offered weekly though and I need more!0
-
Today completed Zumba Cardio Party DVD burned 352 calories. I'm goin to keep doing this dvd until I learn the choreography. It is a great workout.0

Hey guys...sorry I haven't been checking on a regular basis. I was out of town for the 4th of July weekend and sadly didn't do any Zumba. Hopefully I can get in some Zumba time tonight!! I really need to kick things into high gear because my husband is coming home in 20 days for R&R from overseas and I wanted to be 130 but right now I will settle for 135.0

Zumba class today, did 60 min of exercise. Always fun when we do Zumba!0

I hope yall don't mind if I start posting here!
I take Zumba many times a week!!!! As a matter of fact, I teach some also.... Going to get certified in a couple of weeks, but my instructor has started letting me teach a couple of songs so I can become comfortable with it.
So tonight..... 60 mins of Zumba......
Now tomorrow is my LONG day! 60 mins of Zumba in the morning, and then 2 back to back Zumba classes, 120 mins! Yikes! 0 -
Oh, I wish I'd seen this sooner.
I've been doing Zumba 6 days a week for 55 - 60 min unless some other obligation prevents it. I love Zumba! It's the most fun workout I've ever done. And I think my abs are in the best shape ever. 0 -
Another 60 minute class for me tonight.0
