Ok, I've only used this game now for 2 workouts. Yesterday I played with it- got a good workout but it took me a while to decided how to "play" it. Now I figured out that you can create your own custom workout OR use the pre-set ones. I love the "game" even more. With other exercise-themed games I felt like you play- then have to stop and pick another selection- taking too much time in between each exercise. Adding a custom workout you can pick a dozen different things to play and do them all in one workout without stopping. It tells you how long you've worked out, calories burned ( based on your height an weight that you entered in the beginning of the game) and awards you trophies as you go. I kinda like that! :) This is by far the best exercise Wii game that I own. You do not need the Wii Fit Balance Board with this game- however you can use it on a few select workouts if you have it.
Bottom line- its not really a GAME when you wake up and your sore from the squats and lunges from the night before. lol I feel like I got a good workout! I did a custom boxing workout this morning and my arms are feelin it! Here are a few pictures from playing it:
I have so many more things to play around with on here! There is a sports section that I have yet to try! Baseball, inline skating, volleyball!! Wow...I need to rest for a little bit then attempt those! Anyone else run out and get this game yet? I'm curious if anyone else enjoys it as much as I do. :)
Dinner was so good yesterday! Peek back a post to check it out if you haven't seen it yet. I froze a huge container of that sauce for leftovers soon. Hope everyone has a good day! :)
May have to check that out. Got bored with Wii Fit after a while and hadn't really played with it since it got nice out.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip!
This does look good! Is it expensive? I also got bored of the wii fit...but this looks like more of a workout.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm really, REALLY jealous!
ReplyDeleteThat looks so fun!
ReplyDeletelooks cool
ReplyDeleteI wanted to get this. Thanks for reviewing it. Are they hard to find?
ReplyDeleteLooks like so much fun!!
ReplyDeleteMy girl friend just bought hers and I'm going to pick up mine tonight! I'll let you know what I think, but it sounds like fun and my friend loves hers!
ReplyDeleteI knew we shouldn't have sold our Wii last year. My timing stinks. Glad you're having fun AND getting a workout.
ReplyDeleteI played this game for the first time last night and my legs are definitely sore from the squats and lunges. I didn't realize how sore until I was climbing the stairs at work in heels and I had to hold on to the rail because I thought my legs were going to give out any second. I did the first day of the 30 day challenge on low intensity and I got a full body workout.
ReplyDeleteI was just looking at this game - it looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting!
FUN!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review, and the pictures. Love the calorie counter there! I need to master my Fitness Coach before I purchase another but this on certainly on my wish list!
