EA Sports Active for Nintendo Wii Review

Okay, if you are looking for a great workout that is fun, try Wii Active. I used the Wii Fit and found that I was not getting the workout I needed after awhile. It started to bore me.

Then Wii came out with the Wii Active and I have been sore ever since! The pre-programed workouts are great, but I prefer to make my own. I have several cardio, sports, lower and upper body routines that add up to 30 minutes. The game comes with a band which helps a lot. I do recommend purchasing a quality one for a few dollars at Walmart, etc to get the most out of the band exercises. Some of the exercises can be used with the Wii board which I love, but you do not have to have the board to use this game.

The only drawback I see is that it does not track BMI or weight like the Wii Fit.

I have noticed that I have toned up considerably, which is what I needed--not necessarily to loose any weight. All I did was put on a pair of shorts that were a little tight last year. I was pleased.

I am currently going to do the 30-day challenge. If anyone wants to join me, please do! We can add our results to the community forum. Let's get healthy together!
