Hi there :)
I am currently using the wii fit plus & balance board in order to try and loose weight. I find it quite good but it becomes repetitive.
I've heard about EA Sports Active 2 but I was wondering which you guys think is better and why?
How much weight have you lost on it?

    EA is way better.

    The strength exercises were more engaging and it was more personalized. It takes a minute to learn the movements to cooperate with the sensors, but overall, it's much better. I have Wii Fit Plus and use it on occasion, but I never took to using it for a serious program where I have completed EA (the original, the expansion, and 2) many times. I definitely saw results with the EA.

    EA Sports Active 2 has much better options, esp for cardio. I did the 9 week program to start, then set up my own work outs that I still do a year later. I like the Wii Fit Plus, do lots of the balance games with my kids, but the EA is more of a work out for me.

    No problem! Just make sure you use good gear for your feet. There are a lot of jumping exercises and a lot of pressure on your feet.

    Ive used both an I found that the ea sports active is more intense an you have more choices the only bad thing they took down the servers so you can no longer get online with it but all in all it is a great program

    Also consider Wii My Fitness Coach by Ubisoft. I use it at least 2 x weekly, along with running and weights. I noted a big improvement in my body when I changed to it from EA Sports active 2.

    That b*tch - I mean trainer - in Active 2 kicks my butt. She's evil. Way better workout than Wii fit plus.
