I'm in between buying 3 different ones. just wanted to see who has what and how they like them. i was thinking about the Zumba one as well as Golds Gym dance work out, and the biggest loser one. any one tried these??

    I have the Biggest Loser challenge. I do it every single day, and it's an awesome workout! It is definitely a butt kick!

    i have done Zumba but not the other 2 yet, if ur only buying 1 i would go for golds it looks like a better workout 2 me. i didnt burn as much cals at wii zumba as i thought. Im going to get golds nxt coz it looks gr8. Not sure about the biggest looser tho. I looked at all the demo's i could find 2 pick my exersize games, I bought 'Your shape' for the wii and its a fab workout, big calories burner. Hope this helps.x :bigsmile:

    i have not seen golds gym but zumba makes you sweat and is like a dance game basically! but 1 bag thing is it does not count your cals!
    personally i would go for the ea active sports range which gives a ton of different workouts,counts your cals and everything!

    none of these need the fit board as far as i am aware (i used the board on your shape as a step but it went funny when i nxt used it on the fit) im sure the fit board is only 2 b used with wii fit. U get a small camera with your shape that scans your body and then picks up your moves when working out. U can use a fitness ball or a step or weights with your shape but if u dont have it will give u workouts without, u could use 2 tins of beans and do the weights.x

    I've got EA Active, but I don't quite know how well it works, it's been quite a few years LOL. I know EA Active 2 includes a HRM for use with the game as well.

    i just looked at this 1 it looks fab, think that will b my nxt buy, saved it 2 my wish list! thanx, :bigsmile:
  • i have only done zumba from the wii, i was thinking to get the jillian michael one or the gold gym
    they look interesting

    i never done the biggest loser. but im sure its just as good. :)

    it just depends what you are will to invest in first.
    what you think will seem fun for at least until you get the next one.
    something to keep you going even when you arent motivated.

    I have the Zumba and love it. I don't feel that I burn as many calories as I do in a live class but its all about what you put into it. Just like everythng else! I'm getting 30DS and starting it in August....gotta mix things up a little. Goo luck with which ever you choose and let me know what you think about it!
