from Chester, pa

Not that this product is mine, it's my wife's. She really wanted it and we got it. I fell in love with it as soon as it turned on. Everything is so direct and personal. I see the fire and motivation that it gives her. I even found myself using it. It is so real in detail. Complaint, after Complaint, I don't see why? It responds perfectly and I can even customize my very own workout. Like with my wife I might do the 30-day challenge, but on my own I can do only sports or arm exercises. The basketball is so good. I think the customizing of everything could be a lil more.

There's also a voice of light called a daily journal. Here's where you man-up and tell the truth about your day, how many cups of water did I drink yesterday? What other activities did i do? How many fistfulls of fruit have I eaten yesterday? How many hours of sleep did I get?

I think that this experience explains why it is never in the store on the shelf. It's great. Great job, ea sports

What's great about it: the gaming experience is so plentiful.

What's not so great: That I didn't buy it sooner, Why do I have to wait until November for the new exercises to come out.

I would recommend this to a friend!

Get ready to sweat

on December 6, 2009

Posted by: WIDeb

from Madison, WI

This is the best fitness game. I've also purchased the More Wii Active since I love the first one so well. I highly recommend this, it is a great workout. Prepare to sweat. The only drawback is the leg strap to hold the nunchuk during certain sequences. Putting it against your bare skin and not clothing helps some. Enclosed resistance band is not the greatest. I suggest you use or purchase your own.

What's great about it: Wii has outdone themselves

What's not so great: Getting the leg strap to stay of on your thigh

I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Workout

on December 11, 2009

Posted by: Stefanie0203

from Chicago, IL

I looked around for a a good workout game for my wii and decided on this one. I am very happy with my choice. It has customized workouts for you at 3 different levels of difficulty. So if you are a beginner there is an easy level or if you work out a lot there is a hard level. There is also a medium level if you are in between. You can also make your own workout by choosing from TONS of different activities they have such as boxing, squats, or baseball. They have a journal for you to fill out every day which helps with your workout. They make sure you are also living a healthy lifestyle (drinking a lot of water, eating your vegetables ect.) Trust me if you get this game you will not regret it. You get a serious work out! After one day of using it my legs were hurting the next day! But it was worth it!

What's great about it: Fun but at the same time great work out

What's not so great: Nothing

I would recommend this to a friend!

It really makes you sweaty, and you feel worked out.

What's great about it: The daily challenge and variety. But mostly the results!

What's not so great: The resistance band could be more resisty.

Absolute must buy!

on January 9, 2010

Posted by: jmr21389

I absolutely love this game. It really gets you involved the minute you put the game in. You get to answer some questions, and it helps to pick the workouts that will help you get in the best shape. I honestly feel like there is a personal coach guiding me because after a workout, he will give you a review of how everything went, what you did great on, and what you can improve on. THIS GAME WILL HAVE YOU WORKING UP A SWEAT!
If you are debating between this and WiiFit, WiiFit focuses more on aerobics and flexability. If you want to get in better shape, this is what you need.

What's great about it: So easy to get involved, lots of activities, really gets you sweating!

What's not so great: Graphics aren't the best

I would recommend this to a friend!

EXCELEENT CARDIO!!!

on January 9, 2010

Posted by: TRUBLUE943

from CHICAGO

I read many reviews before buying the game and I was not disappointed. I agree with many reviews, its very easy to use and actually gets the heart rate up. I was sweating so hard after my first workout. The game is like a home gym. Although it doesnt replace the gym in terms of strength exercises, it definitely is great at cardio and getting you to move!

What's great about it: Easy to set up a variety of workouts, actually couldn't breathe after my workout.

I would recommend this to a friend!
