    I play the zumba fitness 2. Sometimes I am not convinced by the calories burned. I work out for 50 minutes and it says I burned 500-something calories but it doesn't "feel" like I worked out that much - I am following the moves and making my body move the whole time so maybe I just don't know how burning that many calories feels.

    Zumba is wonderful! I go twice a week to a class and it is slimming down places I never noticed much before.

    How do you count calories burned for Zumba? I am working up to the regular class by attending a "gold" for a bit. Still get heart rate up though... Thanks for your help....:huh:

    Try using this website to calculate it. I LOOVE Zumba! I am super excited abt it even tho Ive only done one live class- it said I burned 911 calories!
  • I have been doing Zumba for almost a year now and I can honestly say I'm OBSESSED with it haha. I try to go whenever my work schedule allows me to do so and I am trying to find other classes around me so I can go to different places when my schedule doesn't allow me to go to my regular studio. It's one of my favorite things in the world! <3
  • That's a really good idea! A Zumba group, I dont think I've seen one, Im gonna look and if not I want to start one. That will be a fun a group,

    If you like Zumba as I do you will love Aqua Zumba, it is so much fun for me. I love being in the water so I am taking the classes every week. I have been trying to lose weight for a long time but this app and my exercise regimen I am seeing some much needed results! I encourage and motivate each and every one of you to stick to the lifestyle change and go above and beyond your mental limits! You can do it! I have been really dedicated and committed to my weight loss/lifestyle change since October I am 20lbs down but I have only had this app for 2 days! I love this app and it helps me to make better food choices!
