Does anybody know how you are supposed to hold the wii remote while running. I will be holding it straight up in my hand and it will have me going very slowly and then fast when I haven't changed. I don't have the attachment for the bottom of the wii remote so I don't know if that helps. Thanks for any tips

    Put it in your pocket or tuck it in the band of your pants.
  • i usually put it in my pants pocket otherwise i have the same problem
  • I just finished my daily wii-ing, and noticed about that. Usually, I have no pockets so i hold it too, and it does seem to make your pace all wonky. Well today, I tucked it into the back of my pants and wow what a difference! It had me moving alot faster for one thing. It did keep asking me if the remote was secure tho' , lol. Give it a try.

    I stick it in my clothes wherever there is a spot for it. Usually my bra :laugh:
  • THANKS! I'll try tucking it in my pants tomorrow.

    Left bra strap for me (I'm right handed - easiest access!). I have to make sure that it's not too loose a bra, or ... let's just say I get a lot more strides than I run ;)

    I have the same problem with the nun chuck on the EA Sports Active ... if I don't pick my leg up high enough, it shows me running at about 1/3 the speed - SO frustrating!

    But good luck with tucking it in clothing!
