6 Awesome Video Games To Get Your Heart Pumping

No. 2: Zumba Core Fitness

Zumba Core is great for people who do not like traditional workouts. This is a full on dance party workout to Latin rhythms, and unlike the older Zumba games, this one has moves that target your core so you get can tone and strengthen while you get your cardio in.

I like that you can modify the length of the workouts — I can dance to one song or choose an hour-long playlist; it’s very flexible. The sensors are pretty accurate for both the Wii and Xbox 360 Kinect version. You also get rewards for doing the moves correctly so if you’re competitive like me, it keeps you motivated. The only downside is, there aren’t warm-ups or cool downs built into the routines so if you don’t know how to do them on your own, you could get hurt.

Compatible With: Xbox 360 with Kinect, Nintendo Wii
