Hey guys! I was wondering if anyone wanted to join my EA Sports Active 2 group. For those that have EA Sports Active 2 with internet access enabled (like on the Wii via wifi for example) you'll have seen a heading called 'groups' on the homescreen where players can see each other's calorie burns, times, distances and heart rates etc. I thought it would be useful for motivation, especially for anyone on the 9 week program (which I've just started today after completing the first two EA active games and challenges.)

The group I've set up is called 'MFPs' and the password you'll need to enter to join is 'mfp2011'. Just click on 'groups' on the game's home screen and select 'join a group' and enter them details.

There's only 10 places but I'm hoping to fill all of them with you lovely people

  • I'm on the Kinect and Groups for the XBOX Kinect have been buggy. I started one for my wife and son and I and it tally's the scores but the minute you try to compare or do anything but look at the main feed for the group it kicks you off EA sports. It probably has to do with the poor selling it had on the Kinect because it was harder to get to work than Your Shape Fitness. However once you figured out it's quirks it's still a much better personal trainer option than Your shape Fitness evolved.

    Hey everyone! I really like EA Sports Active 2. I haven't used this game for some time, but I'd love to be in a group with only MFP-people! I plan to start the 9 week challenge this week! Looking forward to meet you there!

    Thanks for starting this group! I am on day 21 of the 9 week program with about 5 workouts to makeup. Seeing the group stats at the ea site has helped motivate to do my workouts for the last couple days. I love doing anything that gives so much feedback, which I why I used to run/walk with the Garmin.

    :flowerforyou: I am fitone2012 or fitone2011 in the EA feed.

    Glad to hear it helps! I find it great for motivation, I have days where the very thought of running around and jumping about for 35 mins makes me want to hide in my bed, but knowing other people are doing it makes me want to lol!

    I fell off the wagon last week, but I plan to return tonight with a scheduled and a missed workout. I really want to finish this session with no missed workouts. My 9 week program ends on 12/30.

    Hi everyone. My name is Kristi, and I'm new to this group. I am planning to use my new Kinect to jump start my exercise and weight loss. I have the Your Shape: Fitness Evolved, but haven't started using yet due to a nasty winter cold. I'm planning on getting the EA Sports Active 2 later this month, and wanted to know how people like it so far.
