  • Yes, I agree that the site and really all calculators including those on mfp overestimate. I added the low, moderate, and high Zumba to "my exercises" and I vary how I log depending on my instructor and how the class was that day. For example, the classes are an hour but with cool down, stretching and down time between…

  • Go to zumbacalories.com and it will calculate for you. Then you can add it to your exercises! That's what I did. Have fun! :smile:

  • I was going to bring up the same point (or my hesitance rather) regarding eating back all the calories that mfp calculates. I do not have a heart rate monitor so this is all I have to go by. I do either Zumba or Kickboxing in the gym everyday and my calculations range from 300-600 (get Zumba calories from…
    in Those on 1200 calories... Comment by AleahTheLoser February 2012
  • Thank you! I am thinking I need a HRM rather than a fitbit because I would like to get a more accurate reading of my gym activities (Zumba, Kickboxing, Hip Hop) rather than just my steps. I'm afraid to find out what you've found out...that I burn fewer calories than mfp has been estimating,,,,,eeek! Thanks again!

    in Walmart HRM ? Comment by AleahTheLoser February 2012
  • Hi - What type of activities does the fitbit not pick up? I am considering getting one.
    in Walmart HRM ? Comment by AleahTheLoser February 2012
  • Those who own one...how do the calories the fitbit shows you burn during exercise compare to what you had been calculating in mfp? I am curious if mfp over or underestimates calories burned. I would like a fitbit so that I can get a more accurate calculation, especially since mfp encourages you to eat those calories back.…

  • I had a Bally membership and they got bought by LA Fitness a few months ago. I was not pleased with the change initially but now I am TEAM LA FITNESS all the way! I love LA Fitness simply because of the variety of the group classes. My favorites are Zumba, Kickboxing, Bodyworks, Hip Hop, and Belly Dancing. I also like that…
    in LA Fitness? Comment by AleahTheLoser February 2012
  • I watched the infomercial for this today and I want to give it a try! I go to the gym almost every evening and take either Zumba or Kickboxing. I was thinking of doing BBL in the mornings before work but am wondering if I would be overdoing it if I did both. I don't want to give up my gym classes...they are too much fun!…

  • I cosign with mksaffold! I was wearing 2,3, and sometimes even 4 of the stretchy sports bras depending on the activity and wanted just 1 good one. I remembered Oprah having one on one of her "favorite things" shows so I googled and found that it was the Enell. I ordered online and wore it for the first time this morning to…
