I really really love this game. I have been working out on the WII Fit and Gold's Gym. When I started this one I really liked it. It takes the workout to a new level. I was 205 lbs 95 days ago. I am now 185. This is from watching what I eat, cutting back on portions, 30 minutes a day of Wii Fit, 15 minutes Gold's Gym and Now 30 minutes of Wii Active. I do about 45 minutes to 1 hour a night. I see such a difference in the workout and my weight. It really feels good to be happy about a workout.
What's great about it: It feels like you are really working every muscle in your body. And you can't cheat
What's not so great: I wish the nunchuk was wireless. When playing some of the games you can really get slapped in the face with the cord
Hi all, is it possible to purchase the wii balance board without the game? and where? Mine got stolen(!) but i still have the game so i would not like to spend all that money again. Thanks
