I just bought the Kinect for my XBox. I spent an hour just playing the game that came with it.....................it bumped my heart up more than swimming 1.3 mile!!! Anyone use any other games that would be a good exercise???

    I love Kinect Xbox. I wish it had calories burned because my 12 year old needs to lose and we could play it together if I could get a calorie count for him on it. We will anyways but it is hard to guess how many calories burned. We do Kinect Adventure and the roller coaster like game kills you if you keep doing it.

    What did you log your exercise as using this?

    I love Dance Central! We also own Your Shape, which is fun as well, but Dance Central seems to make the time go faster and I definitely get my heart rate up while I'm playing.

    I have two in our house. We love it. I have all the exercise related things as well as sports and wipe-out (That game will kills you!!!)

    I logged it, although I had to guess as to what to log. Also with games like bowling. I use weights to make it more realistic. I have the Velcro hand weights.

    (I wouldn't suggest dumbbells as they may go through the tv!
