Anyone use it?

I have it on the Wii and am loving it! Its really helping me, though I don't always feel tired after a workout, if thats the case I go for a jog after!

Does anyone have it on the kinect for Xbox? I am thinking of taking husband to get it for me later ;)

    I have EA Sports Active II for the playstation move and I love it! Maybe you need to increase your difficulty level in the workout settings. If this doesn't help, try pushing to your max on every exercise. On the running parts just go as hard and fast as you can and really get your heart rate up. That helped me to really get a good workout out of it. Hope this helps!

    Yeah, i have it for the kinect. it's great. right now i'm doing the 9 week challenge, it's a really good workout. it comes with the resistance band and the heart rate monitor. i really like how it plans out different exercises for each day. you never know what you're gonna get. so yeah, i do that one 4 times a week and dance central for kinect the other days. i really like dance central because it's fun and there is a workout mode that counts your calories!! Kinect is awesome!!!

    I have it for the PS3 -- I did the three-week cardio start (on easy), and right now I'm in week 8 of the nine-week challenge (again, on easy).

    I didn't like the resistance band -- mine broke after just four weeks, so I ended up getting dumbbells, and I use them for the workouts.

    I can really tell a difference in terms of my endurance, balance, flexibility, and leg strength, so at this point, I'm a big fan of SportsActive 2!

    (And yes, I think Nikki's trying to kill me, too...!) :laugh:

    I love it on the Wii, but I do find the wires getting in my way! I don't know if thats because I know they wouldn't on the Xbox haha! Some nights it kills me, others I still have enough energy to go for a jog afterwards! Which is good, at least I know I have warmed up enough to go for a jog lol!

    I have the Kinect/EA Active 2.0. Love it. It's great to finish off the day, or as a workout tool for days when I don't go to the gym. The squat jumps/ split squat jumps kill me.... but EA Active makes it fun :-)
