Hi All

Just wondering if anyone is using a wii console for exercise? How is it going? What are some good games to use?

Ive just started using my wii which I have had for a while for exercise. Im using the biggest losser and a dance game. So far i have found it great!

    Agree on the dance games--I am actually using Mario Mix (meant for GameCube but Wii compatible) and I am forced to log it as jazzercise because I don't think the calorie counter on the game is accurate.

    Also, since I subscribe to Redbox, I was notified that some Redboxes now rent a Zumba game for the Wii, so I might go try it out if I can find it in my area.

    I also use WiiSports, and would like to try another type of game eventually. I've heard mixed reviews about WiiFit, so am holding out for more opinions.

    I just set my Wii back up yesterday and began using it again. Right now I'm still using the original Wii Fit and Sports, but I am also interested in getting some more new ones. I'm leaning towards the Dance ones because I do love dancing so much! Glad to see some other suggestions!

    I've lost 20 pounds since May using Wii Fit Plus. I love it. I set my daily calorie goal and just play games until I meet it. I love how I can select whatever I feel like doing on any given day. If I'm tired, I just do lower impact games longer and it tells me when I've burned the calories I want. If I'm energetic there's plenty of cardio like running. etc. to burn lots of calories. Weighing myself on the balance board everyday is great. It's been very eye opening to see the consequences when I slip up...
