Hey everyone, I just bought a Wii to help keep me motivated. I tell you what, "Just Dance" is a heck of a workout if you really get into it! I'd love to find some buddies to do a 30-day challenge with! The rules would be simple:

-minimum 30 minutes of "Just Dance" at least 6 days per week (i did a whole hour yesterday,it flies by!)

Any takers?? :D

    How about starting today or tomorrow, 30 days total.

    Rules: Play at least a half hour, or at least one full-version10-song challenge mode! (I think everyone should have to do "Jerk it out" every time lol with the jumping jacks and running!!)




    Updates from everyone on Thursdays since thats when most will start hopefully? :)

    I'm not sure how challenge details work,anyone more experienced? :) I just thought it would be fun.

    I look like a total spaz playing it,trying to get a workout im workin all my limbs lol Cotton Eye Joe has me jumping around like im having hillbilly-seizure!

    Got mine in for today. I even recorded it!!!! lmao!!! So in 30 days.... I hope I improve! So, I did the 10 song challenge and my total was +45. I wrote down all the songs I did and my top score. So, should we do the sames songs each day and keep track of each songs points or totals at the end????? Just some idea's. Like the songs for monday are....... and they are consistent each week. And each day should include one hard one. ANd then have one free day a week where we do the ones we want.

    Hello!
    I just joined this site minutes ago and cracked up when I saw this message board! My Zumba class was cancelled this past Saturday and while I was kind of moping around I thought I'd pop in Just Dance as a type of exercise rather than playing it like I usually do with the kids. I couldn't believe how much I was sweating after a solid 30 minutes! I told my Zumba buddy that I was going to start working out with Just Dance on my non-Zumba days because it was so fun and a decent workout.
    I'll go ahead and give this challenge a try!

    I have a question. I saw your posting and am looking for new ways to exercise and it sounds like fun! So...looked on Amazon and saw three different versions (#2 comes out Oct. 2010). There is one with 30 tracks and then another by the same company but it says (PAL) but for Wii. It looks like different graphics/different songs but it's hard to tell.

    Which one are you using? The one with 30 tracks?

    Thanks!

    at least 6 days a week
    at least 30 minutes a day (or one 10-full length song challenge mode) *I am personally doing 1 hour a day, but 30 is the minimum for the challenge!*

    I also think everyone should have to do "Jerk it out" and "Cotton eye joe" every time because I think they are the most physical :) but that's not a rule!

    I'm going to stop and buy it this afternoon, heck my sons haven't had a good laugh in a few days.
    Last time I exercised in the house the smart butt came out of his room and asked me if we got any damages. Being dumb I asked from what. He replied from the earthquake that just hit..:frown: I let him keep living at home. How good am I?

    Okay, got my exercise in today. I did a bunch of easy songs as I'm realising just how unco-ordinated I am. It's going to take a while for me to get a hand of it, I'm sure. But as they say, practice makes perfect.
