Just bought Wii fit and I love it!

[Hootie McBoob]

Oh this game is so much fun! Anything that makes me exercise has to be a good thing
I hate exercise and usually give up quickly because I find it boring and I am way to self conscious to go to the Gym or classes. I was thinking of joining curves but I couldn't justify the cost in the end, because I just know i'll last 2 weeks then stop going.
I had been looking at the Wii fit since it came out over here and after reading the reviews decided to go for it and I am so glad I did.
As it says you are never going to get a proper gym workout from it, but today I did 30 minutes of the aerobics exercises and boy can I feel it now
Plus the best thing about it is, it feels like fun and the whole family can do it.

I would highly recommend it to everyone!

Sounds like a really fun way to get your exercise in! As you say... any way you do that is good.

Re: Just bought Wii fit and I love it!

I have been looking at that too- It loosk super cool- You can do YOGA, Kickboxing, strength training, aerobics. ect..I think it s a great thing for the family!! You got the board too right?

Re: Just bought Wii fit and I love it!

Yes, the board came with it, infact I got a workout just by carrying it back from the shops...it weighs a ton

I am really enjoying the step workout and the jogging, I'm not so great at the muscle exercises, but I suppose as I get better at it, it will be easier for me.

My 6 year old daughter loves playing it too, which is great because I am hoping that it will instill a love of regular exercise in her.

I loved dance dance revolution and it was a great way to get the kids moving when no one was around to play. I'll have to take a look at this.

Re: Just bought Wii fit and I love it!

I think we just got it here on the weekend because there was a huge display and promotion for it at the store i was in.

Interesting that you guys would get it later, Europe I can see but you'd think Canada and the US would get it close to the same time --though you guys usually get everything before we do! LOL

Re: Just bought Wii fit and I love it!

Goodness! I think (when it hits Europe) I need one of these!!!!

We just got Wii and my daughter was saying there was Wiifit on the original program. I don't know. I'm too technically stupid to figure it out until my husband gets home.

I also just got an MP3 player and downloaded my favorite songs. I danced for 30 minutes yesterday and had so much fun (all by myself!) I find loud music really pumps me up.

If you look at the link i posted in an earlier post, the WiiFit that you buy comes with a board, and several programs like yoga etc that are not included in the original. Though wii games do provide some exercise, this is an actual exercise program. the board appears to be a big part of it.

Since you are in Canada: just an fyi I saw it at Zellers on teh weekend, I think it was $100.

Re: Just bought Wii fit and I love it!

What exactly is Wii fit? Is it a true workout or just a game to simulate a workout? Sounds very interesting especially if my kids want to do it, too.

Re: Just bought Wii fit and I love it!

Oh man, I saw the commercial for it during celebrity fit club and I want it sooooo bad.. I could just never afford it!

It looks like a BLAST though!
