Thoughts/comments on Zumba as a cardio inclusion in a workout?

zumba is a great cardio workout so long as you are working hard at it. If after a song you are trying to catch your breath and are wiping sweat from your head, you are doing it right!

I am certainly doing that and then some!!

One thing I have noticed is that I am still "hyper" some hours after the classes and even though my body is tired my head is still going with the music!

I can go to bed have a few hours sleep and then be wide awake and still feel hyper. (pity the classes are evening ones).

What goes on in the body after such a workout?

i imagine it is adrenaline. I have the hardest time falling asleep whenever I have fight class, even when we go easy.
