How working out with Zumba works - Health Benefits, How to get started?


 


Almost all Zumba brand classes are designed as 45- to 60-minute group exercise classes led by a Zumba-certified instructor. These are typically offered at gyms and fitness centers, although Zumba instructors are welcome to market classes on their own, hosting workouts at parks, schools, or other venues.
Overall, Zumba feels like a dance party disguised as a workout—which is exactly what people love about it. Zumba is a safe, fun, and effective workout for most people who want to enhance their cardiovascular fitness through dance. There are few drawbacks to the program, just general precautions you should be aware of when starting any new workout routine.

How it works

AccessibilityDue to the program's widespread availability and the varied class style, Zumba as a brand is quite flexible and suited to almost all fitness levels and interests.

General FitnessGiven Zumba's sustained popularity, many studies have been performed on the efficacy of the workout. One 2016 review of the literature found that Zumba was effective at improving aerobic capacity (cardiovascular fitness), while limited additional evidence pointed to possible enhancements to muscular fitness and flexibility.

SustainabilityOne of the most critical factors in exercise is adherence—continuing the exercise program after you start. Generally speaking, the more enjoyable a program is, the more motivated you will be to continue it. And the more consistent you are with a program, the more likely you will experience positive results.

Energy & General HealthWhile almost any sustained workout program may help boost mood, self-esteem, and energy, Zumba has a few peer-reviewed studies pointing to its psychological benefits of the program.


Zumba can be an enjoyable way to fit in aerobic exercise each week and help you meet your weight loss goals. Combine Zumba with strength training and a healthy diet for best results. Always check with your doctor before starting a new fitness routine.
