Nintendo Wii Fit Review

You need to own a Wii console before you get this. It works with the console not by itself.

 wanted to get this because I was curious on exactly how much this would get you up and moving. Well you do and it is fun while you do it. The games are fun and you don't really pay attention to the workout that you are getting because you are focused on the games.

My daughters enjoy it but they are in their early teens. I would not recomend it for youngsters.You need to play the games for points to unlock other games that grow in difficultly. It may be hard for young children to get the movements in the yoga, strength training, some of the aerobics and balance games.  In addition with the fact that they are growing their results for the BMI may be inacurate and needs to be updated often. This may frustrate them. I feel that this is more for teens and adults if you are looking for accurate testing results.

If you do not have a large area to work out in or have room for large workout equipment this is perfect for you. You need  some swing room for your arms and a small bit of floor space for the balance board. It can easily be put aside when you are not using it and can't be used as a clothes hanger like I have seen many friends use their treadmills for.
