Aww thanks! I cannot believe how big this group is! When I start the EA Sport more workouts one we didn't have nearly this many and it fizzled fast...I did complete that challenge though so it wasn't a bust...LOL.

I am totally doing this! I think waking up early to exercise is the answer. I like to workout at night but with DH staying up as late as I do it doesn't work out so well. I could always set the Wii up downstairs though and that way I don't bug anyone but I guess for now I will try to make 6am my routine!

Glad to be back and HOPE to stick to it this time!

That's exactly how I did it! Our wii is downstairs. I got up before the munchkins and did my workout before life interferred. If I don't do it first thing, I start talking myself OUT of doing it.


Cee-I've been hitting the treadmill and messing with the incline. I kept telling myself I could handle more than my legs were telling me. I'm ready!

Didn't feel like working out today but I did. Woke up feeling bloated and tired. got chronic PMS and swore at the TV a lot today haha At one point when it told it lost connection with the Wii remote (as it does because of the power save function) i wanted to throw it through the TV. :huh: LOL

All kinds of stuff today... 2 new exercies (Alternating Drop Lunges and a combination squat + upper body that I hadn't seen before). Lots of running, and Mountainboarding just got twice as long. And of course 2 sets of Mountain Climbers right after stride jumps. So kind of my evil hateful trainer-bot.

I tried doing the pushups the regular way and only got to 3 before I wimped out. LOL I can do the girly pushups without a problem. I want to be able to do full pushups though! I cannot wait to complete the program tonight!!

SayLiLG, you can absolutely start over! It's all about starting though. Good luck!! :-D

Yeah only one more to go!!! I went from 2 to 10 push ups in a row just within those last couple of workouts. Feels good to do them the "manly" way. LOL

can you set up multiple profiles, so that I could use it one day and my wife could use it another?

Also, is it worth the money? Does the tracking work well? The heart rate monitor? I'd like to hear some reviews.
