Kinect sports for the Xbox

you can create your own title and log it in under whatever name you wish to. After you have typed in xbox sports, it will say not found in the database. Then scroll to the bottom of the page and click add exercise to database, then you can name it whatever makes you happy. :-). I do it all the time with every exercise I do.

Good luck to you!

The Dance game (Just Dance I think?) is awesome on Kinect for a good workout

I use Dance Central for the Kinect and I like it a lot, I can really work up a sweat with that one and I love to dance..I also have Just Dance 2 for the Wii which got me started using dance games, the Kinect seemed like a great progression from that. Both do get me sweating and they have "sweat' counters, I have no idea how accurate these are but I compare the physical activity to one of the cardio exercises like line dancing or low impact aerobics based on how hard I worked, I estimate down just to be sure because of all the starts and stops in the programming. We played Kinect for two hours yesterday, bowling, boxing, and Rallyball and used the wii estimations provided by MFP as comparisons.
I've read the reviews for other games and I think I'll wait til better fitness programs come out. I've heard Zumba is fun but there's a lot of mixed reviews, as well as a few of the fitness programs. Read as many reviews as you can and think about what you want out of the game, if you want a varied workout or something customizable, it's a lot of money to spend to not get what you want.

Well, I just got a HRM monitor today, and I am buring a hell of a lot more calories than it calculated. Yay!
