Some Of The Activities Are Really Good Too

I bought Just Dance 2 weeks ago and it's fab! You lose weight, but you don't realise because you're having a laugh, Saying that I think I burnt most of my calories howling at my OH dancing to Katy Perry

 

[Rhi_Rhi1]

oo haha thanks i was just about to ask does anyone know what the dancing one is called is there anything else like that ... you can do snowboarding and stuff on some games cant you ?! just hope i loose some weight cos i don't really have the time, my local gym has a creche but it gets so busy you have to book in advance!

 

[Daisybell]

and once more coz you are having fun you don't realise that you are burning calories

I have Wii Fit and Wii Active, and hoping to try Just Dance at some point too. Wii Fit is really good for correcting slouching, good stretching and warming up for something else you might do (like if you go for a jog that day, you could warm up on Wii Fit). But it doesn't really burn a lot of calories unless you're doing it for a while. Wii Active, however, is really good for giving you a good work out in 30 minutes and letting you burn a good 100 - 200 calories. It will run you ragged though!! A few times I spent an hour or so on Wii Active and burnt over 400 calories so I could have a hamburger that night haha! I was so sore though. Also Dance Dance Revolution is a great way to burn calories too (but it really is only cardio and working your legs). Have fun!

yeah it came yesterday so i have only played the wii fit game that comes with it, its okay, seems more for fun tho, then anything else but i was still tired looking forward to buying the ova exercise games, and the dance one ! x

And it called me overweight how RUDE, i have to loose a stone and a half!? haha i thought as much but i was still gutted haahh and i have a wii fit age of 44 (I'm 21)

I don't think it's very accurate for that, some days it says I'm 20-ish in age, and this one time it told me I was 70! lmao. Also before I got preggers I was really thin and it still had me in the middle of "healthy weight", so to be underweight in that game I think you'd have to be a child or something. lol. I'm scared to check what it thinks of me now that I'm pregnant haha.

I like the step game. There's one that you can unlock and while it's going you can turn it to the tv to watch something while stepping on & off the board for 8 mins. The wiimote will beep every time you need to step. I do that while watching something and it makes me so sore after it's over haha! Oh and the hulahoop ones is good to to burn calories! If you had a C-section though I'd be careful, it really works your tummy hehe
