    i started it actually... untill it stopped working on me. it won't recognize my movements anymore, and i only used 4 times... i read some reviews on the website and a lot of people seem to be having the same problem.
    its a fantastic program though, i got a great workout from it. i wish it would work again :-(

    I got NFL Training Camp for Wii. I have done two workouts so far. Have a few issues with motion detection but like it so far.

    I just finished the cardio kick start program for the wii - will start the nine week program tomorrow! What a great tool to use to exercise. I only experienced 1 problem with 1 excersize through out the whole 3 week process... My friend and I are doing it together and using the trophies as motivation to beat each other.

    I have the "game" and just tried out different activites and had no problems. Maybe I will try the three week program. I heard some have to "reset" the periphrials and that it work fine again.

    Anybody know how accurate their calorie count is?

    I just completed week one of the cardio kickstart and have had no problems as of yet, but thanks for the warnings and the tip on how to fix them if they start acting up.

    Started the 9 week program right away on Moderate. I love it! I'm going to do the 9 week on Hard next time through after I finish the first round.

    Have had it since the day it was released for the Wii and am doing the 9 week program. I love it. Have had a few issues with the H/R monitor, but it turns out it was user error. LOL You can burn A LOT of calories in a short amount of time (I burned over 200 in about 25 minutes). It's helped my endurance at the gym. I use handweights instead of the resistance band, which you can set the game to use either one. I love that it's virtually hands-free, except for when the different games are played (basketball, soccer, etc.) Sports Active 1 had the nunchuck connected to the controller that got in the way constantly.

    My only complaint is that the elastic leg strap can roll and pinch, even with proper fit. Other than that, I love the game. It's much better than Sports Active 1!

    I have this game as well, and the two previous versions. This one is by far the best so far. I started the 9 week course 3 weeks ago and was not able to keep up with for other reasons.

    I re-started it today, it still kicks my butt :)

    I have had no problems with the connections as of yet... except when the wii-mote doesn't get used for a period of time and it comes up in the middle of an excersize saying it lost connection... same with the wii fit board... I find that very annoying in a minor sort of way :)

    Cheers

    I have been considering buying this and have been trying to find out if it was worth the money. Seems like everyone on here likes it. I was debating between it and Zumba.. but maybe I will do both.. The treadmill is becoming very boring here lately..haha..
