how many calories can i burn from an hour of zumba?
Generally speaking, Zumba classes last about an hour and are full of full-bodied, rapid dance moves choreographed specifically to get the body moving and the heart rate up. The amount of energy required to pull off an hour-long Zumba class makes it a great way to burn loads of calories and build lean muscle all over the body. The official Zumba website says that people burn âhundredsâ of calories during an hour-long Zumba workout, but that number leaves a huge range of calories and, while inspiring, might not be particularly helpful.
