    NEW CHALLENGE STARTING MONDAY, MAY 16, 2011

    +=+=+=+=+ ONE HOUR or more of WII FIT BALANCE GAMES +=+=+=+=+

    Feel free to incorporate this into your regular workout routine in any way that suits you -- all in one go, a few minutes a day, anything goes! Also, it's up to YOU as far as whether you'd like to make this ONE HOUR each DAY or ONE HOUR for the entire WEEK, whatever suits you and keeps you motivated.

    Stop back here and let us know how/when you complete it, and encourage others to complete it as well!
  • Can't wait for the hubby to either go to bed or go to work so I can have control of the tv again so I can do this. I love the Balance games.

    Hello Everyone! I joined MFP a little over 1 week ago. I'm pretty much addicted! I would like to join in on the fun. I do have a question...what are you using to calculate your calories burned on particular activites within Wii Fit? I'm thinking that maybe I need to change a setting on mine because all it does is put the time coins into the bank...

    when you are done click on the bank..it will tell you the total time ..click again and it will give you your calorie count !!

    Are you using the original wii fit, or the wii fit plus?

    I don't think it matters if you use either Wii just as long you do something and
    let us know how you are doing. :wink:

    TUESDAY CHALLENGE

    Dance 2 three songs done twice.

    I was sweating buckets. You can't tell me the Wii isn't enough exercise. :tongue:

    Ready and able to do Balance Games. :bigsmile:

    Have fun everyone!!
    We are all getting stronger and slimmer :flowerforyou:

    Boxing and Balance Games - 18 mins.

    I have moved to Advanced on the Boxing but just
    can't seem to get the foot work. I messed up
    so many times last night I went back to Beginner.

    Good Luck today everyone!!

    So I have done an hour (or more) each night of my Wii Fit Plus doing a combination of yoga, strength, balance, etc. I won't be able to do Friday though as travelling, although might take it with me, haven't decided if it is worth it for one day away. Can't wait till next week's challenge!

    Hello all,

    I've had the Wii Fit & now plus for 2 years now and used it for most of my exercise, but got away from in and now I'm coming back to it again.

    I'd love to jump right in and join you all.

    I did 30 minutes this morning: boxing, step, boxing for 126 calories.
