Not everyone wants to push their bodies to the limit with a high intensity work out. High impact cardio with jumping, plyometrics, and increasing your heart rate to 65%-80% of your heart rate max is just not a good fit for everyone.
High impact cardio should NOT be done if you're pregnant, have injuries to your joints, extremely overweight, or if you are a complete beginner to exercise.
So why Zumba? Why is there such a Zumba craze? If you have not tried a class you definitely need to try one to just understand why there is alot of ZUMBA-LOVE!
Zumba involves dance and aerobic elements. Zumba's choreography incorporates hiphop, soca, samba, salsa, merengue, martial arts, and some belly dance moves.
According to Wikipedia, "Approximately 14 million people take weekly Zumba classes in over 140,000 locations across more than 150 countries"
Zumba is a very safe exercise program for people of all levels of fitness. In addition, you can expect to burn anywhere from 400-800 plus calories in 45 minutes of Zumba action.
So what are you waiting for? It's time to give Zumba a try. If you are looking for a low-impact cardio exercise program that is guaranteed to burn calories, and will be incredibly fun at the same time, Zumba is the answer.
