Wii Fit gals??

[Tracey Habron]

I had to look up Wii Fit.......as soon as I saw it I realised what it was.

Being a callanetics devotee myself, I won't be buying one but it does look fun.

It would be a gimmick if you bought it, used it a few times and then packed it away.

As far as I am concerned, if it gets you moving, it is great. Whatever works for you. Bad weather, sleeping bubs etc often give excuses for us not to exercise and this allows a fun workout at home.

I am going to keep an eye out for it and having said I won't buy one...I just might so I can understand how it work and what exercises it has.

I checked the youtube advert and there were great exercises for balance and stuff - invaluable to people of all ages and especially kids. How cool for them to have TV games that move their bodies and work on fine motor co-ordination and balance.

May look gimmicky but I reckon it has great potential if used!

I love it!!! I go on it 30mins a day!! Jogging, boxing, yoga, muscle workouts, I LOVE IT!!!!! I've already lost 2kgs
and DH has aswell!!!!

i'm looking forward to being able to exercise at home - it is dark when I get up in the morning and dark when I get home from work (I'm also back at study next semester) - so I can't go exercising outside - I'm also looking forward to the games on the wii

I have a feeling DH has either got me one (the Wii & the Fit game) or must have one on layby - I've mentioned it a few times, and you just have to love the innocence of the 10yr old when he says... "Dad & I went to EB games today and I think he's buying a wii for me... Oh yeah, he said I wasn't supposed to tell you...oops!"...

Have to love that he can't keep the secret - and the innocence that he thinks its for him
Lets face it - I'm sure he'll get MUCH more use out of the machine than I will

Still loving it (and it didn't make a rude comment about the time between visits - just my lack of balance )

Renstar - how long did you have to workout to unlock the boxing?? I haven't found that one yet!!!

[Shanti]

Michelle - I think it depends on how much time you spend in that particular section and also how many points you achieve on the other games in that part.... cant remember is the boxing in the aerobic workouts or muscle workouts?? anyway whichever one it is in, you just need to spend lots of time in that one....sorry not much help am i haha
but Boxing is SUPER FUN!!! you sure work up a sweat!!
