Okay the kids got a Kinect for Christmas, and I've spent the last few days breaking a sweat playing "Wipeout" & "Fruit Ninja"...got me thinking I should get an actual excercise game for the thing for those evenings I can't escape to the gym. Any recommendations...? Thanks in advance!

I've only played Zumba, which is fun and a good workout...Amazon usually has reviews...I think there's a Biggest Loser one that would probably be good0

I got a kinnect and your shape evolved. Lots of great workouts. I really like it.0

Love biggest loser and dance central 2!0

I'm not sure if the zumba that is currently in stores is compatible with the kinect. There is a new zumba game that is kinect capable and I believe it comes out in Jan. So make sure to check the boxes to see which one you're getting.0

I love Dance Central and Dance Central 2! They are a great workout. You can even choose to play on workout mode, which tells you how many calories you have burned.0

I've played the Dance Central games for Kinect and it's awesome. You'll really break a sweat and have fun doing it! Your kids will enjoy it too. Music and dancing for everyone to enjoy; music from the 70's to today.
Just bought Zumba for Kinect, too. Can't wait to play that.
Just wish that MFP had Kinect in their exercise list. :sad: Perhaps a future addition...???
Enjoy your new Kinect!0 -
Hi, you know actually those Biggest Loser games for Kinect will get you too. Also, if you do a Dance Central game, there are settings there for workout, and even the dances themselves at a higher level will get your heart rate up! Good luck!0

Dance Central 2 is what I am currently using. It’s definitely a work out, but it’s also fun! I like having a girl friend over to play it, but I play it by myself also. I definitely recommend it! There is something for everyone in the music also.0

i use the kinnect for zumba its great! altho wanting to get the new zumba now as that one is getting quite repetitive! also my OH has a boxing training type game that i will have to have a go at one day0

I don't have a Kinect, But i exercise on the Wii. I do Just Dance 2 & 3 and Zumba on the Wii daily. IT's Fun! You don't realize that you're actually working out until you're done!0

ive tried zumba on it and just dance 3. Both are alot of fun and make you sweat quite a bit.0

Anything that is dance related! I use Just Dance 3 on my Wii! The time flys by when you're grooving!0

I have Biggest Loser - it has different levels and like any workout DVD - it will work you out as hard as the effort you put in. I think it was worth the buy though.....
I'm sure you could get it cheaper through like a used game store like Game Stop (not sure where you are - but that's what we have here)0 -
Yeah i go on kinect XX0

I use the Biggest Loser game for Kinect. It works for me! :flowerforyou:0

I got Your Shape. I am undecided about the new one.
I want the biggest Loser.0 -
I have Zumba and Dance Central 2 for my Kinect and have sweated with both and the have workout modes too!0

Got a Kinect for Christmas too and got Black Eyed Peas Experience. It kicks my butt daily, but I LOVE it and hardly feel like I am exercising when playing.0

Any of the Dance games, they're fun and a great workout. Zumba is awesome too.0
