Hi all! I joined a while back but have really slacked off until lately. I realized that when July 1st hit, that over half of the year was gone and I was still in the same sad shape I was in when this year started. Not only that, but all of those New Year's resolutions hadn't been kept either, so I purchased the EA Sports Active game for the Wii and have started doing the 30 day challenge. I am currently on day 5 and using the ''easy'' setting since I am very out of shape. I've also been trying to use the wii fit and I love Leslie Sansone's walk away the pounds DVDs.
Surely I can get through a 30 day time frame. I usually give up after a few weeks, but I am motivated to try this, as I can already tell a small (ok, very small) difference in my arms.
I wish they would combine some features from the Wii fit and EA Active Sports. I wish the EA Active would incorporate some step routine that wasnt so cartoony as the Wii fit. Maybe it does eventually, but so far it hasnt. I also wish the dance sections on the EA Active would actually be DANCE sessions and not just standing there moving your arms to the arrows pointed on the screen. That isnt dancing in my opinion, but I still like it. I also wish the EA Active let you put in a password to keep your profile secret in case others (or my husband) couldnt click on my profile and see how much I weigh. I keep taking the CD out and hiding it from him so he can't find out.
The wii fit is great cause it lets you weigh yourself, has the password feature, and the step routines. But I think it is too cartoon like. It would be better if it had trainers like EA Active does. It also needs some more choices.
I purchased the Gold's Gym, but I do not like it. Does anyone know of any other workout games for Wii that offer more step aerobics or other cardio choices?
