I highly recommend this game. Not only can you have fun with friends and family on a split screen but you get an awesome workout. I have done many other workouts for 45 minutes to an hour and very little sweat. This game had me sweating as if though I had just done a marathon and I only worked out for 27 minutes. I love the fact that you can track your calories burned and journal all of your workouts. I started the 30 day challenge last night on medium intensity. I felt every muscle in my body at work. I will be going today to cancel my gym membership. As a stay at home mom it is very hard to wait until my son falls asleep and then drive to gym just to do cardio. By the time I get there the personal training is not available. With this video your Personal trainer is there for you at any time. I have already called family and friends this morning to let them know about this game.
What's great about it: You get an awesome workout in the privacy of your own home
