I spent 2 hour straight playing Wipeout for Kinect. I was dripping in sweat, exhausted and sore. Anyone else play Kinect and how do you log the calories burn?
Thanks!!

    Hi! I play the Kinect games---I bought a heart rate monitor watch and strap to keep accurate count of the cals I'm burning when I play. It's a great workout!

    I have a Kinect, but I need a bracket to be able to play it as my room is too small. I'm not even sure if it'll work with one. *woe*

    Oh heck yeah!!!!

    I live in the middle of nowhere, 4 hours away from any gym, so if I want to do a 'class,' I'll pop in Zumba or Dance Central 2.

    Sometimes, when the hubby and I want to do an active date night, we'll throw in kinect sports. It's an awesome workout!!!!!

    I bought the zoom this weekend and it is awesome! It doubles the playing space and makes it so much easier to play

    Does it work? I read that it doesn't really. Which sucks because where our TV is the Kinect doesn't really work all that well and we can't move furniture because there's a chimney breast in the way one side and a window in the way the other.

    Everything I've read says it works. I suggested it to my niece and it's working for her

    I have the Kinect and love it. I would love wipeout. I have really enjoyed Zumba for a workout. I enjoy it even more now that I figured out how to make a custom playlist to get rid of the songs that I just couldn't get the steps down for.
