wii be fit

The newest toy at our house? Wii fit. This thing is awesome! The Wii was such a good idea. This game has exercises that help you work on balance and fitness. You step on this pad, and then it weighs you and tells you how you compare to the healthy weight for people of your height and age. You play fun games, and the pad is sensitive to your shifts in balancing, which is fun for things like Yoga and balance games. The Yoga is my favorite part, because it encourages you to stay balanced while stretching and relaxing your muscles. The only problem is, most of the exercises don't get your heart pumping as much as all-out running or jogging. It's a fun game, but it doesn't have that same satisfaction as actually working out. Also, I find it a little depressing that instead of working out, we'd rather just play a game about working out. But thats okay, because at least it is motivating our family to excercise more. We love it! And by the way, I'm pretty sure this game is designed for super obese people who never move. It's not a big deal, though. Anywho, it is a very fun game. I also recommend wii music- it's my other favorite Wii game.

How fun! I'm hoping Santa brings our family a Wii this year for Christmas. I want one SO BAD.
