Re: Wii Fit
I got it on Friday and I LOVE IT! My review:
If you are used to intense workouts - this is NOT for you. I prefer walking and lighter workouts for longer periods of time so this is PERFECT for me! Like any workout - you can control the intensity. Heck, once you figure it out you can even cheat (by moving the Wii remote up and down instead of running, for instance) But, why would you?! It is so much fun to do the workout and after an HOUR I was sweaty and out of breath!
Yoga: The yoga is great because the balance board tells you if you are doing the pose correctly. I didn't realize how much harder it is when you do yoga CORRECTLY!
Balance games: THE MOST FUN! Don't know about the "workout" aspect of it but these are the most fun! I love the tightrope one - very cute games.
Strength training: You can do push ups, leg lifts, crunches etc. The balance board is so helpful and it can TELL when you are cheating and the trainer WILL yell at you! ("Did you put your leg down?! Are you bending your knees?!"
Aerobics: Fun and a great workout. You can run with the other Miis and do step! I JUST heard that you can unlock a level where you can watch your TV and jog or do step aerobics and then come back to the game and it will tell you your progress!!!
Body Test: You can get weighed every day and check your balance. It also tracks your progress on a calendar.
I also love how your other Miis show up in the game. DH's Mii throws me hula hoops in the hula hoop game ( ALSO FUN! ).
The more you workout the more you "unlock" different games. Also, you can unlock more "reps" or longer times for any workout.
Cons:
Since I didn't unlock the longer games/more reps for some of the workouts - it takes a while to "retry" and start over. It is a lot of down time when you are trying to work out so I try to jog in place during this time.
Overall, glad I bought it and I can't wait to see what other games come out for the balance board!
