I have a wii fit, and I have the wii fit plus and the bigggest looser. I am tempted to get the wii ea active too, it is on sale at best buy now for 39.99 (20 off)

My question does anyone have all of these, i am wondering what all is different on that vs the others

Any input appreciated.

    it is on sale is it? Hmm, that is very tempting. I have WF+ but have been tempted to get that one also. Trying to add variety in my workout so I don't get bored.

    Well, I only have WF+. But both my sister and my SIL have EA active and WF. Both of them said that Active kicked their rears the first several times they used it. WF+ is more game like, while Active seems to be more of an interactive workout DVD. Does that make sense? Please understand this is second hand info, but they are both on here, so maybe they'll chime in! Good luck!
  • Thanks for the headsup...I might have to jump on that deal. I am also looking for some variety. I got the WF+ for Christmas and I'm worried about getting bored. Can anyone let us know if this is worth the splurge? If its too hard and not at all enjoyable, I worry that I won't use it...

    I have the Wii Fit, and bought my wife the Biggest Loser game for Christmas. The Biggest Loser is strictly a workout game, where wii fit has other little side games you can play with friends if you wanted to.

    Jump on the sale!!!

    I have had Wii Active for awhile now and have used it off and on. I did start it again today and it is a workout I was sweating!

    I got the Wii Fit + for xmas and the Biggest Loser but only have done them twice. I like the Wii active better.
  • i have the active and it is really good. it comes with the resistance band so when you do arm work you really get the benefits of the resistance. it is definately more like a workout dvd would be and not as much of a 'game' like wii fit(ihave this also, as well as TBL.) I just got TBL for xmas so this is only the start of my 2nd week and i have that set on beginner so compaired to TBL(at the setting i have it set on) I think active gives me a more intense workout. It is definately worh the price of 39.99.. It is good to add for variety. I do suggest it.

    Anyone have that one?

    I have the EA Active. It's a love hate relationship. Sometimes when you work out the trainer you have "sets a steady pace" but the reality of the matter is that sometimes when you do something you end up doing one side faster then the other when you switch. It's a great work out! I've burned a lot of calories doing it and I work muscles that I haven't used since I was a teenager lol.
  • I have Gold's Gym and that is a good one. It will kick your butt thats for sure. My in shape athletic husband is doing it with me and he sweats his butt off. He loves it, a little more then I do. To him its fun to me its a workout
  • If you have the other ones and dont like it I wouldn't waist your money getting another one. Personally I dont like the wii-fit. But I went and got the biggest loser and I LOVE that game. It makes me sweat way more then the other one!

    Debbie was just wondering how you liked Wii Active?

    It was kinda a love hate...

    I liked it but it kicked my butt...i was dripping sweat at the end of it. took me a little longer cause i went through all the viedo's and stuff

    Have to say, can't wait till my legs get smaller to fit the leg thing on better, i got it on , but barely.

    i have my 3 wii now, i am going to start working through them all even..break up the boredom :)

    I think today at lunch will be biggest looser and tonight I am not sure becuase big bowl game on tonight and we are huge Texas Fans...
