Losing weight - Gym V Wii

Rikki

Just ordered 'Your Shape' from Amazon. I love traditional aerobics and thought I'd give this ago.

Anyone else using this fitness game?

another 2lbs off this week :j

I'm enjoying the 6 week challenge on more workouts, it's different every time, so you don'y get bored. Also, the step workouts on the same disc are a big change from the wii fit routine - faster, harder, more varied and definitely feel like they're burning more calories.

I've got it, but tbh I've only used it 2 or 3 times, too much aerobics for me, I totally lack coordination and can't even manage the grapevine without tripping over:mad: so I'll stick with More Workouts.

Well done on the weight loss:T I'll not only be happy if I lose 2lb this week I'll be bloody amazed.

I'm glad you're enjoying it. I'm just over the half way point now, so I moved it up to the medium level today and boy did I notice the difference:eek: I dread to think what the hard level is like:rotfl:

I'm on day 4 today (then I have 3 rest days) of the medium level. I suppose it depends on what fitness level you are at. I'm not finding it hard which is what I like. I can achieve it, making me want to do more

Agree about the step, its so much better.

Hiya all
not doing as much exercise as i would like hence the 1lb gain in weight must of been the peperoni stuffed crust pizza and apple cider on Saturday night -proper chav food:rotfl::rotfl:.
I am glad to see everyone is still going.:beer:

I also had pepperoni stuffed crust pizza on Saturday, plus a fair bit of other not-so-healthy stuff, and have gained the grand total of THREE pounds, so don't feel too bad!

I'm hoping some of that is muscle building from the exercising! Haven't missed a day of of the 30 day challenge - yet - but managed to tweak a muscle in my shoulder last night doing tricep stuff... Will have to cheat on that excercise for a bit until it fixes

Started dieting last Weds, and just need something to do every day to get me active and moving a bit more

I have good core strength so when doing the body test on the wii fit plus the results contradict themselves. I am over weight and my bmi is more than it should be but I have good balance and core strength so my wii fit age is 19 years younger than I am. Work that one out?

I tend not to take much notice of my age, it goes up and down like a yo-yo depending on the tests:)

On the EA More Workouts Step, is it the same routine for all? I have done the ed and fast but only for 10mins, would it just continue the same for the full 30?
