Physiological load associated with a Zumba fitness workout: a comparison pilot study between classes and a DVD.

The objectives were to compare the metabolic load elicited by Zumba®classes and DVD workouts and link the physiological responses to participants’ psychological characteristics. Fifteen women (25.4 ± 4.3 years old; 164.9 ± 5.1 cm; 56.9 ± 5.8 kg; 23.9 ± 4.9% body fat) performed three Zumba®classes an...

      ab: The objectives were to compare the metabolic load elicited by Zumba®classes and DVD workouts and link the physiological responses to participants’ psychological characteristics. Fifteen women (25.4 ± 4.3 years old; 164.9 ± 5.1 cm; 56.9 ± 5.8 kg; 23.9 ± 4.9% body fat) performed three Zumba®classes and three Zumba®DVD workouts using a repeated measure design. Energy expenditure was assessed by extrapolating oxygen cost from heart rate (HR) using regressions from a preliminary incremental running test. Differences between Zumba®classes and Zumba®DVD workouts were assessed by Student’sTtests and repeated measures analysis of variance and correlations between physiological and psychological variables by the Pearson’s coefficient. Results showed that Zumba®classes allowed greater energy expenditure compared to Zumba®DVD workouts (6.8 ± 0.9 vs 5.6 ± 0.9 kcal · min−1, 95% confidence interval (CI) limits: 0.3–2.1,P = 0.016), with significant differences in the time spent with a HR above 85% of HR reserve (14.7 vs 1.7%, 95% CI: 5.6–20.4,P = 0.021). Furthermore, women with a greater autonomy score showed a smaller difference between DVD and class (r = 0.511,P = 0.048), while greater differences were shown in women with greater interpersonal skills (r = −0.563,P = 0.028). The results suggest that while both types of workouts are suitable to maintain fitness Zumba®classes allow greater energy expenditure.
