Exercise that kicks my booty!

Last week I was unwell with a sore throat and extreme sinus infection, so I took it easy with my exercise.  I only walked for about 40 to 45 minutes every day, so I decided this week since I'm feeling much better that I'm going to kick it up a notch with my workouts.  I had Zumba Sculpt and Tone waiting for me for a while now, but it looked so difficult combining the dancing with the weights (I do not have the toning sticks so I use my regular 1.5 kg hand-weights).  Yesterday I just dived in and did it.  Wow, what a workout!  45 Minutes of serious exercise.

It's so much fun, I love the pulsing rhythms and the different dance styles, and then combining it with strength training.  Yesterday I burned 428 calories, and today I pushed it even more with 441 calories - my heart rate an average of 151, reaching a max of a scary 173.

Going to stick with it for the week, and see if it helps my results.  Hoping to lose some serious cm's too!  I adore it when I feel so goooooood after a workout... absolute joy!
