I love the Zumba workout. Seriously, its the first workout that I have done that I actually enjoy doing and don't immediately say "Thank God THATs over" when I'm done. My issue is mustering up the gumption to actually get up and do it. Once I've started, its a non-issue...I love it, awesome, great...but getting there is killing me!

I was wondering if anyone else does it and would maybe like to do a 4 week challenge or something? I am unable to go to Zumba classes (unfortunately because the classes are awesome), but I have purchased the Zumba Exhilarate DVD set. I would just like to be part of a challenge that could possibly motivate me to get back on track with my workouts. I would also love to motivate others to get into a good exercise routine.

My starting goal is to get at least 3 hours of intense cardio each week. Its hard for me to say "60 minutes a day for 3 days, etc" because sometimes my schedule doesn't allow for that and I can only get 20 or 30 minutes in...but I figure as long as I can add it up (no matter how!) to equal 3 hours a week, I'm doing ok!!

    I love Zumba. I too find it hard to go to the classes even though I would love too. I have the Zumba on the WII but I don't really care for it. I haven't tried the DVD's yet. I would be up for doing a challenge! It would keep me motivated!

    I love zumba! i try to attend at least 3 classes a week at the gym, but sometimes my work schedule doesn't allow me to. So if I can't go to the gym I do it on the wii and it's great as well. I'm in if you do a zumba challenge, I love the dancing :)

    I'm willing. At this time, I won't drive the 12 miles to go to a class, but I like dancing with the You Tube Zumba videos.

    I do Zumba 4 times a week and I became friends with the instructor so she actually burns the songs for me...so I can do it at home which is awesome too!
