Zumba does not appear under excercise. Any suggestions on what to use?

    I do Zumba and I just use the Dancing, aerobic, ballet or modern, twist - or just use Dancing, general...

    That is what i listed but thought I would check with others. Thank you so much for your help!
  • I would suggest using a heart rate monitor to determine how many calories YOU burn doing zumba. I also do zumba three days per week. I burn more than the dance, twist, etc. on most days, but on days when I have less energy, I burn about the same. The intensity of the workout can change the calories burned by more than 300 in my instance. If you truly want to be accurate, invest in a HRM.
