This is great. It is wii Fit to the next level. I am currently doing the 30 day challenge and I love it. I actually broke a sweat with low intensity.
After becoming frustrated with the resistance band unraveling from the handles during the exercises. I substituted it for one I already had which is stronger and worked out better.
I recommended it to friends after my first work out!
What's great about it: Variety of exercises. Next level of wii fit!
What's not so great: The resistance strap not very resistant and comes off the handles easily.

If you really want a good work-out, I do recommend this. Its not for couch potatoes. It tells you when you are doing something wrong and praises you when you do it right. Make sure the nunchuck is turned the right way in your leg strap (It points down with the top pointed to the right.)
What's great about it: You get a very hard work-out. I am not even on expert yet and I feel muscles I haven't felt in a very long time.
What's not so great: The resistance band isn't great resistance so I use one that I had previously.

EA Sports is an amazing game. I liked Wii Fit but you can't compare the two honestly. EA Sports changes constantly. You really work up a sweat. My daughter and I have had so much fun working out together. I'd highly recommend to anyone who wants to get a great workout at home.
What's great about it: Huge variety, switches from aerobic to strength training- works like interval training.

The variety of the workouts is nice, and the calendar tells you when to take have a day of rest. I selected the highest level workout, but I think it could have been more intense than it was. I was sweaty, but I get much more sweaty at the gym. The nunchuck cord smacks me in the face while doing over head exercises. The system didn't always recognize when I changed positions, the remote had to be in a precise position, or I had to shake it for it to recognize that I had moved. The "encouraging" statements from the trainer get to be a bit much, like "right on". Who speaks like that? Also, the rate of the reps is not always consistent, so if I anticipate the start of a rep, the system tells me to stay still.
What's great about it: Workout routine variety
What's not so great: Nunchuck cord, wish it were cordless. Remote and nunchuck positions aren't always recognized

It's everything I thought the Wii Fit would be. You can use the balance board with it, but I didn't even use it for the first week and didn't notice. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to add some activity to their life in the comfort of their own home.

I was excited about this game and thought it would meet my needs. The first day was great! The second day was wonderful and the third day it no longer worked. The person was doing the exercises without me. She got stuck in position and the dumb game kept saying make sure you have strap on your right leg! I did everything I could and nothing worked! For those that can get it to continue working its a good thing, but for $59.99 and not to work is very disappointing! Will be returning the product for another since it was opened, but will be contacting EA Sports people about their fault product!
What's great about it: When it works its fun and a nice cardio workout.
What's not so great: It stopped working after the 3rd use. Moved the band around on my leg. Did a reset on the console. NOTHING WORKED!!

I have not had something in a long time that I can't waite to play (Work out) the next day. On the day off I go in and work on my own. I'll pick out something that I did not do so good the day before. Or just pick one that has something in it that I'd just like to practice at. If you don't have the board from Wii fit get it all though you don't need it..
What's great about it: This keeps you wanting to keep coming back
