Wii Etc (Fit, Fit Plus, EA....) Team for February

I just Wiid it and burned 390 calories....my legs were shaking! But it felt soooo good! I'm all in!!

Ok I'm in. Let''s try again!!! Knee's better and hopefully will stay better. I will aim to do 3 Wii workouts a week. Breaking myself back in easily.

Good luck for Wii-ing in February everyone.

For the month of February, I am going to try to stick to my 6 week challenge, and that is 3 days a week at least on my Wii.

I'm committing to my wii more this month. I did a little this afternoon. Ran for 20 min, and did 3 sets of the kung fu. Still can't get over the 660 mark on the kung fu.

I found that my HRM shows a lot more calories worked off than the game does. I don't think thegameis correct. Don't really know how it thinks it knows how hard (or not) that I am working.

My challenge for February is to be on it at least 3 times a week for 45 - 60 minutes.

Hope everyone gets off to a great start for the month.

I'll join too. I'm only seven work outs away from finishing my first 30 day challenge with Wii Active. I wanna do it at least one more time before I get the upgrade. Like I said in the other post its great all except for those Kick Backs (or ups, whatever it is). I've owned it six months and am just now finishing my first challenge. I know I can do this, and burn it off. I have 26 pounds to go and about 12 weeks till my hubby comes home.

I got a head start and did just over an hour this evening. Was a good sweat! Hoping throughout the month I will exceed my own expectations. I think it's time for new batteries!

I have a wii-fit i'm in...

Im in! I love using my wii fit plus. I even have my 2 year old son do it with me & we both enjoy it.

Hello everyone and welcome to our new comers!

I only did 3 minutes on the Wii today so that it won't yell at me tomorrow. I went ice skating and managed to skate the whole 2 hour session. I only counted it as 1 hour for my log as I did stop and rest here and there and did not push myself to go fast or be aggressive.

For the month of February my Wii goal will be 4 days a week for 40 minutes a day for a total of 120 minutes a week. That is lower than normal, but I have yoga twice a week now at work and I plan on being a weekend warrior doing sporting activities like skating, skiing and swimming.

Good night everyone and Happy February,

JAM

I am envious! I wish we had an ice skating rink around here! The closest is an hour away. I love to skate. Especially did roller skating when I was young!!! Okay....so that tells you how old I am!! Glad you had fun skating!

Still going strong! I'm in the second week of my second 6 week challenge on EA Active More Workouts. I workout 4 times per week at medium intensity and am supposed to have 3 rest days. I did fun cardio stuff on my last two rest days, so I've worked out 6 days in a row! I'm so ready for a rest day today.
I did some reverse flys or rows that put a serious hurt on my shoulder blades/shoulders. Now if I can just go home and actually REST! I've become accustomed to the daily activity.

I just got my wii and the games with it ( Jillian 2010, wii fit plus, biggest loser, and your shape) Im super excited. Im going to be doing it during nap time and when the kids are sleeping. my 1 year old likes to sit between my legs as im going the wii fit. lol

That would add a degree of dificulty to the excercising!!! Good Luck. I love my wii fit plus.

February 1 AND a Monday. I just did my hour on the Wii, sitting here soaked in sweat. Burned up about 250 calories. That's about good for me at this stage. Not counting all the runs up and down the stairs at work. And aside from the cookie I couldn't resist today, my numbers came out pretty well. Even ate my exercise calories today, well, more than half . So thats good, right?

All I have is the Wii Fit at the moment, and don't really plan for anything more intense for another month. Waiting for the 6 month post op (hysterectomy) mark before I push myself too hard. Figure I just keep at this pace and the timing will be perfect, as by then my diet better sorted out as well.

Work sucked today, bad, first there were the cookies, lol, and then I learned starting tomorrow I have 10 hour days ahead for me for the next few months. Going to need the stamina, so as hard as it will be to find the time, I am determined.

And hey tigermom, I still have yet to pass 600 on the Kung Fu. But if I beat your score, you're gonna here about it! :-)
I only will do two rounds of that before i get bored tho. I generally will do a few fun things to warm up, and then I go into the My Wii Fit Plus and let it pick a routine for me. It's more of a constant flow that way , and pushes me to do things I wouldn't choose on my own. Spend 30 or 40 minutes that way and go back to doing some yoga and strength training and a silly game or two to wind down. Dang the lunges were killing me tonight. Hoo boy! I tackled the biking too late in the game,I was very unsteady and running into rocks as if they were the goal, haha.

Now its reward with a hot shower and a little time on the inversion table. I love that thing. It doesn't burn calories, but I find it very relaxing and gives a superb stretching.

Hope ya'll are going strong out there. My goal tomorrow is to have the fruit and not the cookie! Maybe a rest day from the Wii, and back at it Wednesday.

I am in too. I just started a 6 week challenge with EA active. I like the idea of doing some Wii fit plus yoga on my rest days. I think I'll try it too. Thanks for the good idea.

I just have to share this information! I was surfing through Amazon, and I saw that they have an Wii Step Platform. I'm overseas and the NEX does not carry it, but I haven't heard anyone mention having it. I thought this to be so cool, because it will increase your wii step workout. It's only $17 online at Amazon. Does anyone have this? If so, what is your opinion of it?

I think I am going to have to put me on a Wii budget, :laugh: but I just love my Wii!

I am new to this whole thing. I got the Wii Fit Plus for Christmas and am still learning about it. Any suggestions on what is a good calorie burning exercise to try out?
