Just for fun/fitness

[Maria]

I'm hooked on Zumba videos and/or Youtube clips of Zumba dance workouts.
I've noticed my lumbar spine seems way more fixed when trying to do the hip movements and I hope to loosen it up w/o damage. Swiveling hips has become much more difficult for me tho I'm trying!

This may be more than some persons w/pain can tolerate tho if one is fairly well and likes to dance/work out you may want to try it. Incorporation of many types of dance styles.

Fun (IMHO)!

Wow, sounds great! Your happiness is infectuious.

Zumba® — Ditch the workout, Join the party!

ans,
the music is incredible and the moves are great. I can't do this for an hour by any means or all the moves however it at least gets me moving. My freaking feet (tendonitis) bother me far more than my back tho I have to admit that some days my legs feel like they weigh a ton so I ditch the party then!!

Then it's just walking ~ good ol' walking

Are there videos for white guys? Since my spine surgeries started, I can't move my hips independently of the rest of my body. Actually, I never could!

YouTube has some pretty good clips of everything Zumba so there is this one:
Zumba Pitbull Move Shake Drop Vegan Straight White Guy

Still fair amount of hip movement in that tho I'm sure there's a Zumba improvision anyone can make up!

Mark what's TUTAWG ???

And am pretty sure I can break it..

So probably being tutawg (guy or gal) isn't a bad thing for a spiney
