A member asked:
Did zumba on sat & calf muscles got very tight during warm up. later noticed big bruise. found knot under muscle wed. does it sound serious?

Reassurance: You possibly had a severe muscle spasm during warming up and then some vessels was broken. Because few days are over this is aLready not dangerous. But be careful in the future Zumba. Increase intensity gradually.
