Tonight I used my Zumba wii game for at the second time. I usually hit the good old gym on Thursday nights to get my Zumba fix. Tonight, I wanted to hang out with my son and decided to forgo the gym. (I hardly saw him yesterday and I missed him.)
I had a great time with my son - but I was feeling guilty that I bailed on the gym.
So after Billy went to bed, I made sure that my BF was busy watching basketball (so he wouldn't intrude). Finally after everyone was settled, I popped the game into my wii console and got down to business.
As I mentioned before, I have used this game before. The first time that I used the game, I realized halfway through my 45 minute session that I was wearing the belt wrong - so a lot on my steps were not registering. I still had a great time though.
This time around, I wore the belt in the correct position and got a much higher score! I had a great workout and felt less guilty about sharing a cupcake with my office roomie earlier today. Shhhhhh don't tell on me!
Back the Zumba game. Here are my pros and cons:
Pros:
Great sweaty workout!
Fun to dance to!
Easy to do at home - especially after the kids go to bed.
Not worrying about bumping into people
Cons:
Had to keep readjusting the belt that held the wii controller
If I had to choose between taking a class or playing the wii game, I would definitely choose the class. You can't beat the atmosphere of a class. But the game is a great supplement and I would recommend it to Zumba lovers or those who are interested in trying it.
I must borrow the game. Please and thank you!! :-)
