Just Dance

Hello Everyone!
I'm not sure if anyone is like me, but I love playing Just Dance. I love playing for fun but for days (like today) when I'm not feeling well enough to make it to the gym, it's a great way to sweat and move your entire body. In the main menu you can select "Just Sweat Mode", I must say, I love it. They keep track of "sweat points" but they don't track calories. I looked up to see if there was a way to convert sweat points to calories and surprisingly there is. It's 4.2 sweat points to 1 calorie. So for example I go 1100 sweat points playing earlier, thats 262 calories. It's a great way to burn some extra calories and still have fun with it. I don't know about you guys but anytime I can play a game and exercise at the same time, I'm in.

Great if you enjoy it because then you are more likely to do it more often - key to losing the weight and keeping it off.0

The latest version, Just Dance 4, shows the calories burned so no need for conversions. I'm addicted to this and Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2013. Although it can be embarrassing when DH sneaks up on me mid-dance...0

That's great to know because my daughter loves Just Dance and I join in with her a lot.0
