Any opinions? From the looks of it it looks like a lot of fun and a great way to motivate myself to exercise more. Does anyone out there own this game?

    I"m buying it tomorrow, but I have the first one and the "additional exercises" game and they are kicking my butt. I finished day 3 of the 30 day challenge today. It's a lot of fun and mixes up exercises nicely.

    If you have the first one, then disregard this comment lol

    I bought it for the Kinect today and used it---it kicked my butt!! I registered for the 9 week challenge and Day 1 was 20 minutes worth of resistance band exercises (such as bicept curls and squats), mountain biking, jogging/sprinting, and dodgeball. It was definitely a challenge and I have a long way to go, but I can definitely see how this game would help in the journey to weight loss!

    As a sidenote, I also LOVE Dance Central and Zumba for the Kinect!

    I have it for ps3 and I love it! I am doing the 9week fitness program on the game where u work out with a virtual trainer 4 days a week for 9 weeks. It comes with a heart rate monitor which is accurate because I compared it to the heart rate monitor I have. However the calories burned is incorrect for me because I compared it yesterday and it said I only burned 149 calories when my trusty real heart rate monitor said I burned 458 calories so definitely use your own! I am on day 8.

    I would recommend this to everyone! I got it for a xmas present for the playstation and i love it! I have just completed my 2nd week and have 7 weeks left and not missed an exercise once! You do 30 mins for 4 days or more if you want to.

    BUY, BUY, BUY!

    Evanescence, have you joined any groups yet? Maybe we can set one up for myfitnesspal users as would be great motivation for us all!

    I am in a group. It's another myfitnesspal user who I kno. U can join if you want. The group name is crash and the password is crash (the name of our dog). You have to have playstation 3 to join our group though since the groups r done through whatever system u have.

    Just joined you, hope you dont mind!

    I cant keep off the thing, i have rest days but i feel fat if i dont do some kind of workout! Think i am going to have a aerobic session later as that is so much fun (not for my neighbours downstairs!).

    Look forward to the competition!
