Trying Zumba

A while ago, I bought Wii Zumba. That was 30lbs ago, and I hated it. The game moved too fast for me to keep up, even in the tutorial mode for beginners. Sad, right?

I brought the game back out today and tried it again. I skipped the tutorial and went right in for a workout. It was okay at first, and then it got crazy and my shins were killing me. Plus, I can't seem to coordinate my feet, arms and hips all at the same time. I lasted 20 minutes.

Sigh. I know a few friends who have tried Zumba and love it. It seems like so much fun and a great exercise, but I just can't get into it (at least not yet. I'm not giving up). Perhaps I need more rhythm?

Next time I try it, I'm going to warm up on my own and then start the game. That should help with the pain in my legs at least.

What is your experience with Zumba? Love it or hate it?
