You might gain weight this week but in the long run, you'll lose weight so much faster and look so much better and toned with exercise.

But its a GOOD sore, isn't it?!! LOL! NOT!


I know what you mean though. I've been doing a Zumba dance class for one hour and WOW! Talk about a work-out!


And yup, you'll probably gain weight this week from some water retention in those sore sore muscles. But like the previous posted said, you'll feel better in the long run!

Hey ladies!


I didn't gain this week - stayed the same but I do feel good!! ;-)


I decided to add 30 minutes of cardio after my pilates class - it's the only time I'll be AT the gym so we'll see how it goes!

OMG Deb, its a BLAST!


Straight from the Zumba.com site:


ZUMBA is a fusion of Latin and International music - dance themes that create a dynamic, exciting, effective fitness system! The routines feature aerobic/fitness interval training with a combination of fast and slow rhythms that tone and sculpt the body. Zumba utilizes the principles of fitness interval training and resistance training to maximize caloric output, fat burning and total body toning. It is a mixture of body sculpting movements with easy to follow dance steps.


Check out the website. I was even able to look up my instructor.
