User questions & answers

Question: Are the comments that the DVDs and the instructor are boring and too slow paced. welcome your thoughts, please
Answer: Compared to the regular Zumba tapes, yes, these are slow placed---but these are set up for SENIORS!! I'm 68 and find these dvd's very invigorating!! the first dvd is instructional, teaching you the 5 different dance steps, and then trying them out. the 2nd dvd puts you thru the cardio (45 minutes with 7 minutes of warm-up and 8-minute cooldown. 3rd dvd is toning, so more invigorating. and Beto, the creator, is the instructor, with Joy Prouty as the senior instructor. I've shown it to my fellow residents here at my independent living complex and they find it quite invigorating!!!
Question: how long is each DVD
Answer: Includes:*Step-by-Step DVD (run time 39 minutes)*Cardio DVD (run time 46 minutes)*GOLD-Toning DVD (run time 45 minutes)*Merengue Rhythms DVD (run time 58 minutes)*Salsa Rhythms DVD (run time 63 minutes)But you can push the "stop" button on your remote control and only do what you feel like.
Question: How much room do you need to move around? I'm concerned about space in front of the TV
Answer: It would probably be ideal to have roughly 5' x 7' free. But I don't have that much free space either, so I adapted. I run the program on my TV in the living room and dance along two sides of the dining room table in the adjacent area--one side for sideways movements, the other for back and forth.
Question: Iam 58 yrs old pain and ack in my body 180 lbs no injurys just no motivation i love dance but i am so ashame
Answer: Get up and enjoy yourself. If you like to dance this is the one to start with. Don't worry about trying to do everything at once. Just take your time and build up to the rest. My grandchildren even worked out with me. They loved it. Motivate yourself to learn just one song and dance routine, then move on to the others. Just do it for yourself! I know you will feel much better.

Question: Is the instructors voice of poor quality or might it have been a bad DVD
Answer: If you want to gain muscle, I would suggest doing more of a weight lifting program like P90X. In the Insanity program, you do not use any weights, but will use your own body weight. you will likely increase your cardiovascular strength but the program does not use any weights, so you will not bulk up muscle at all. Hope that helps you out
Question: Are the work-out sections done to a complete song or is he just teaching one move with short music and then goes to teach another move
Answer: Hi April, I think they are different. I have tried P90x and I didn't care for it. I had the bands to work with however were other equipment I didn't have that really made it hard to do the whole DVD. I wouldn't say one is better than the other I would just say which one is right for you. I really need to build up my cardio and that is what Insanity is doing for me. I also feel like insanity goes faster. I am already tired after the warm up but the DVD seems to go by faster. With P90X it seemed to drag but that could just be me. I haven't done P90x in almost 2 years.
Question: Does this come with two dvds or not? some people say they didn't receive dvd 2. thanks

STRONG by Zumba High Intensity Cardio & Tone 60 min Workout DVD Featuring Michelle Lewin

Zumba Fitness LLC

Based on 1 reviews Check latest price

Product description

ABOUT THE DVD: No, it’s not a dance class. And it’s not just another bootcamp. Discover the STRONG by Zumba High-Intensity Cardio and Tone 60 min workout, where every move is synced to a beat. Using only your bodyweight, transform your body as muscle conditioning, cardio and plyometric moves help you burn calories and tone your abs, arms, legs and glutes. ABOUT THE LIVE CLASS: Stop counting the reps. Start training to the beat. STRONG by Zumba combines body weight, muscle conditioning, cardio and plyometric training moves synced to original music that has been specifically designed to match every single move. Every squat, every lunge, every burpee is driven by the music, helping you make it to that last rep, and maybe even five more. In a one-hour class you will burn calories while toning arms, legs, abs and glutes. Plyometric or explosive moves like high knees, burpees, and jumping jacks are interchanged with isometric moves like lunges, squats, and kickboxing. STRONG by Zumba instructors change up the music and moves frequently to make sure you’re always challenged to the max. RESULTS THAT WILL GET YOU LEANER. FITTER. STRONGER. Fact: working out to perfectly synced music and moves pushes you harder to burn more calories.* Couple that with the afterburn (your body torching almost 50% more calories post-class!) and it's scientifically proven that you'll see - and feel - incredible results.** Consistently crushing your STRONG by Zumba workouts at least 3 times per week for just 12-weeks and eating a sensible diet can result in an overall leaner, more toned body with inches lost in the waist, abs, hips, thighs, and calves.*** * Eight healthy men and women participated in the indirect measurement of caloric expenditure during STRONG by Zumba classes with and without music through the use of a metabolic cart which analyzes continuous breath-by-breath VO2 and VCO2. The results were analyzed using paired T tests. Participants burned an average of 438 calories in a STRONG by Zumba class with music and an average of 390 calories in a STRONG by Zumba class without music. Participants burned on average 48 calories more with music in a STRONG by Zumba class than without. The highest caloric count a participant burned was 680 calories. ** Eight healthy men and women participated in Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC) to determine their post workout caloric expenditure. Participants burned an average of 75 calories in the 40 minutes after the STRONG by Zumba class, which is almost twice the calories burned at rest. It is noted that 40 minutes post-workout, a participant's body goes back to homeostasis - a resting state. *** Twenty-three healthy study participants (20 females, 3 males) attended 60-minute STRONG by Zumba classes 3 times per week for a period of 12-weeks and ate a sensible diet. On average, the participants lost 1.39 inches in the waist, 1.88 inches in the abs, 1.67 inches in the hip, 1.68 inches in the mid-thigh, and 0.23 inches in the calves.

  • It's not a dance class - it's revolutionary workout where every move is synced to a beat
  • 60 min high-intensity workout with a bonus 20 min workout
  • Burn more calories when you workout out to perfectly synced music
  • Proven to burn almost 2x the calories post-class
  • Try it at-home now and find a class in gyms everywhere

Product features

Tone your muscles

Tone your abs, legs, glutes and arms as you squat, plank, and burpee. Strong by Zumba is a kick-ass total-body workout.

Maximize your burn

Combining a high-intensity workout with muscle conditioning stimulates a higher caloric burn for the entire workout, and a higher rate of post-workout burn. So start torching calories. The afterburn will let you know it’s working.

Make every minute count

It's quite simple: the reverse-engineered music pushes you to do more, so you see results faster. Get ready to discover what you're really capable of.

Challenge your core

Bodyweight training requires an enormous amount of core engagement in every exercise. With one quadrant of the class entirely dedicated to floor exercises, the 29 muscles that make up your core won't know what hit them.

User questions & answers

Question: is it high impact or low
Answer: yes, I mainly got this set for the cardio workout, but the further I advance, the more these moves work on my muscles, toning them. I really am feeling the effects on my abs, (I have a small pooch, from giving birth), and the sides of my thighs
Question: Does this have an option to work out to music only, without the instruction
Answer: No not really, I workout in my living room and it's not a huge space maybe 8' x 6' and it's plenty enough room to move about. The Zumba moves typically do not require a lot of space. Hope this is helpful.
Question: Could any of u please update your reviews to include your age and/or fitness level? From your current reviews I can't tell if this would work for me
Answer: The only difference between this DVD set, (5 discs), and the larger set, (7 discs), is this "Multi-Small" one is missing the Zumba Concert disc and it also does not contain the "Santao" (chair) workout. If those 2 things don't matter to you, than the smaller set is a better buy. You still get the toning sticks, the workout guide with recipes and diet plans and all of the actual workout discs including the step by step disc for beginners. If you've never done Zumba before, it's a good idea to do the step by step first so you know what to do when using the other workout discs. I have the Multi-Small version because I didn't care about the concert video and when I purchased it, the price difference between the 2 sets was about $70.00. I am very happy with this set. I started out using the game version for the Wii player and grew tired of the game & scoring format. I also wanted to see actual human beings as instructors rather than the colorful shadows used in the game. It's also nice to not have to deal with a remote controller just to excerise.
Question: What are the songs and artists included on this dvd? are the songs performed by the original artists
Answer: Until you feel like you've mastered it or are bored with it. Boredom will kill your drive to work out and zumba is totally worth keeping up with! You will see results, promise! Ripped will def tone you and slim you down, I love that DVD. Exhilarate is kinda hard (when I started it, I was like "wth?") & will work your tush off but its fun. I can't do RUSH because I just don't like the teaching style of the girl who leads it. MIX is hard hard hard imo. There are some funky dances in it that i've never seen before. The concert is fun but essentially just Exhilarate live with a few differences/entertainment. If I were you, i'd try Ripped next (it has 2 parts) and see how far you get then add a little more each workout. I'd also intersperse Exhilarate in and do as much as you can until you can do it all. I either stopped when I thought I was going to die at first or would take 2-3 min rests when I needed to. Hope that helps!!

Question: Is this set good for toning also? I know Zumba is good cardio but I am curious if you have gotten toning effects from using this set as well
Answer: Hello April, Every DVD comes with a digital e-copy with instructions on how to redeem it but it is only valid in the US. On the program guide in the DVD, it specifies that the e-copy is only available in the US. I hope this answers your question. Thanks.

Answer: Yes, this game will work on the Nintendo Wii. It will not play on the Nintendo Switch, the newest Nintendo console.
Question: It does not say the belt is included on this $29.00 Zumba Fitness Core video. How do I know if it comes with one or if I have to buy one separately
Answer: Wii games work on the WiiU. You just have to enter the Wii menu and then you won't be able to use the gamepad. You will have to use your remotes
Question: Do you have to use the belt or can you just follow the screen without using the remote and belt? Thanks
Answer: Yes the game is in the box. It comes with the game, arm heart rate monitor, leg motion sensor, and 3 resistance bands.
Question: Does this work on the Wii U
Answer: omg, i searched and searched for this. even broke the leg sensor and had to buy a new one (lol). So, after you load your profile, in the bottom right corner, click "help & settings", after click "settings", then click "rebind peripherals". after that you press and hold the button on the arm sensor till it syncs up, then do the same with the leg. also, make sure the USB dongle is plugged it. Hope this helps.

About Zumba Fitness





The Zumba Fitness Total Body Transformation System includes four DVDs and two toning sticks.
Zumba Fitness® is the only Latin-inspired dance-fitness program that blends red-hot international music, created by Grammy Award-winning producers, and contagious steps to form a "fitness-party" that is downright addictive. Since its inception in 2001, Zumba Fitness has grown to become the world's largest and most successful dance-fitness program with more than 10 million people of all shapes, sizes, and ages taking weekly Zumba classes in over 90,000 locations across more than 110 countries.

As a fitness instructor in his native Cali, Colombia, the life of Zumba program's founder, Alberto "Beto" Perez, took an unexpected turn one fateful day in the mid-'90s. He darted off to teach an aerobics class and forgot his traditional aerobics music, so he improvised using his own mix of music from tapes he had in his backpack (the salsa and merengue music he grew up with). Spontaneously, he created a new kind of dance-fitness, one that focused on letting the music move you (instead of counting reps over the music). Energy electrified the room; people couldn't stop smiling. His class loved it! And on that day, a revolutionary new fitness concept was born--the Zumba Fitness-Party.

In 2001, Beto brought his new dance-fitness style to Miami, Florida, and, through a student (Alberto Perlman's mom), met entrepreneurs Alberto Perlman and Alberto Aghion. All three hailed from Colombia and all three had a vision to bring this dynamic dance-fitness class to the masses. The three Albertos formed an alliance and created a business, calling it Zumba Fitness. They trademarked the word Zumba® and set a goal to expand the brand all over the world. First came the DVDs, then the infomercial--which introduced the Zumba Fitness-Party to the public on a wide-scale basis. That followed with the demand for Zumba classes and Zumba instructors and then the company took off and the Zumba program expanded in a big way. By 2005, Zumba Fitness spawned a full-fledged Zumba Academy to license Zumba Instructors to teach Zumba classes. More expansion followed with the launch of Zumbawear apparel and accessories, music CDs, and in 2008, one of the bestselling at-home fitness DVD series ever--the Zumba Fitness® Total Body Transformation System--which starred Beto and introduced Zumba Fitness' newest stars, Tanya Beardsley and Gina Grant. In 2010, Zumba shook the ground by being the first branded fitness program to launch a video game on all three major gaming platforms: Wii, Xbox, and PS3.

Fast forward to today, the Zumba program is now taught in gyms and studios all over the world to millions of Zumba enthusiasts. And as the program continues to evolve from its humble beginnings, to a global movement, to a way of life--its growth has only deepened the company's commitment to providing accessible fitness, without the strain, without the sacrifice, just the pure joy of a party.

Answer: You're gonna need a yoga mat for sure! We recommend booty bands and hand weights if you wanna increase the intensity of the booty workouts. There are some twerk moves on your knees so if your knees are sensitive knee pads are helpful.
Question: Does this dvd have a music only option or no verbal cues setting
Answer: No sorry we do not offer music only option at this time.
Question: Do these workouts also target stomach area at all
Answer: Having a strong core is essential to building your booty. Some of the workouts have a separate glute exercise and some incorporate the core work into the booty toning work. The workouts are much more focused on booty and leg but we do incorporate ab work as well.
Question: Does she discuss how to do this safely
Answer: Absolutely! Nicole provides modifications and breaks the moves down a lot. There's beginner workouts and ones for more advanced booty babes.

User questions & answers

Question: Does this involve a lot of jumping? I live in an apartment with squeaky floors so I want something low impact to do at home
Answer: I wouldn't say jumping as in bouncing/both feet off the ground. You do switch feet and move around quite a bit, so if you have sensitive neighbors you might want a different or outdoor workout plan. I'm small and lightweight so I'm pretty low impact, but I do the workout for the cardio benefits.
Question: what kind of music does this dvd have
Answer: All the music is upbeat and covers a wide range of genres: disco, rock, Brazilian, African, classical! It's a great workout, easy to follow and uses every mussel in your body including your face - Kenn Kihiu's smile and personality is infections and you can't help smiling back!
Question: Does the bonus nutrition video really helps to lose weight
Answer: Alas, no video will really help you lose weight. The only thing that works--and none of us need a DVD to tell us this--is moving more every day, eating less everyday, and making sure most of your calories come from healthy whole foods. That's what I did, and lost 60 pounds and kept it off. Good luck!
Question: How long is the main workout
Answer: I think around 40 minutes for workout and about a 7 minute ab workout.I havent really timed it exactly

Review

"The SIT AND BE FIT program is practical, effective and inspiring. It repeatedly makes the point that our bodies are our most precious possession. It is highly recommended."--Walter M. Bortz II, M.D., Clinical Associate Professor of Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine

"Your SIT AND BE FIT videos have brought the importance of exercise to the geriatric and less mobile population with significant benefit. I can strongly endorse these videos."--John A. Fagan, M.D.,Geriatric Specialist, Rockwood Clinic. P.S., Spokane, WA --John A. Fagan, M.D.,Geriatric Specialist, Rockwood Clinic. P.S., Spokane, WA

"I accidentally came to discover the Sit and Be Fit exercise program and it has proved to be one of the best things that has happened for my health and well-being. I have been struggling with a debilitating neck and shoulder injury for the past three years and after just a month-and-a-half of doing the Sit and Be Fit exercises I have regained almost my full range of motion in my right arm. I have also found that the rest of my body is getting stronger and more flexible and that my posture has really improved. And, all those small but annoying aches and pains are virtually gone." --Mauilea P.

"I discovered your show 2 years ago. I want to tell you YOU ARE WONDERFUL. Your demeanor, your hair, your cheerful smile every day. The exercises are just right for me. Your constant admonitions to go only to your own range of motion so we don't feel bad if we can't go as high as you. I love your show and it is helping me to stay healthy and mobile. I tell all my friends about it. You are doing a wonderful public service for us old and retired people who can't get out much. May God bless you. Keep up the good work." --Mrs. Dorothy P.

Product description

America's favorite fitness expert, Denise Austin, gets kids in shape with an energetic workout using elements of dance, hip-hop, sports drills, yoga and stretching in a 20-minute workout that is uniquely made for kids to keep moving, have fun, and stay healthy.

With the goal to get kids moving, fitness expert Denise Austin leads preteens in a 20-minute total body workout incorporating elements of dance, hip-hop, sports drills, and yoga. It begins with a six-minute warm up of stretches and lunges, followed by seven minutes of cardio-funk, kick-boxing, and traditional aerobics. The program ends with a strengthening segment of push-ups, abdominal exercises, and beginning yoga. Effervescent Austin provides adequate verbal coaching to a dozen kids who perform the moves. This moderately fast-paced program assumes its participants are fairly fit at the onset and in only a few cases offers reduced levels of participation for varying abilities. No equipment is necessary and minimal space is required in this energetic option for general youth fitness. Dont miss the DVDs bonus episode, "Family Fit," a 20-minute workout designed for families to do together. It follows the same format as the "Fit Kids" routine, with the addition of a few exercises that require partnering for resistance training. One segment employs a basketball (or similar sized ball) which is the only equipment necessary. "Quality fitness, doing it together," is Austins peppy mantra, which results in a corny but clever way to get families off the couch. (Ages 8 and older) --Lynn Gibson
