I recently purchased an xbox 360 and Kinect system and have been playing The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout and Zumba and Your Shape-Fitness Evolved and I've already lost 9 pounds in the last couple weeks. I love how personalized the workouts can get! Just wondering if any of you got results from those games.

My husband surprised me with Wii Zumba a couple months ago, and I LOVE it! I work up a good sweat and burn about 400 calories in 30 minutes, so it has to be doing something!
But I also like to do a variety of other things so I don't get bored. I tried a boxing game awhile ago and was very sore the next day. Didn't even feel like a workout.
Have fun with your new "games!"0 -
I've been using the Kinect for workouts, as well! I'm thinking about also setting up my PS2 again and pulling out my Dance Dance Revolution equipment!
It works!!0 -
I use Your Shape and Jillian Michael's for the Wii . I've gotten great results and it keeps you motivated.0

I love using Dance Dance Revolution 3 and Just Dance 2 for workouts. I wish I could pick up zumba for the Wii or some DVDs but they too expensive new and I haven't been able to find any good deals used0
