Well I searched for it and it's not found in there.
I don't know exactly what to search for or log what I did?
Anyone know what I should put?
Thanks.

    Try http://www.zumbacalories.com/
    Then just add it to your diary by clicking "My Exercises" up the top.

    Before I got a heart rate monitor - I logged it as aerobics, high intensity. Now - with the HRM - I can see I am burning even more calories than I thought!

    I created a new exercise called Zumba class that I log mine under. I use my HRM or Bodymedia Fit for calories.

    Just out of curiosity, how many cals are you guys burning in an hour of Zumba? I don't have an HRM, but my trainer said it could be as high as 700?! I mean - WOW!

    For me it is typically 450-550, sometimes a bit higher or lower. That's based on my HRM and Bodymedia Fit. They usually are pretty close to each other in readings.
