Wii Fit is a new video game developed by Nintendo for the Wii console. It includes 40 types of training activities, and comes bundled with the Wii Balance Board. It is the first game to make use of the Wii Balance Board as a unique platform peripheral that can measure a user's weight and center of gravity.
It is useful for working every muscle in the body including: abs, arms, back, chest, legs, gluteus maximus, and more through exercises and games: Yoga & Breathing Exercises, Muscle Strength & Toning Exercises, Flexibility Exercises, Balance Exercises, and Stress Reduction Exercises. Its best activities are the aerobic and balance games.
In fact, this game has become a favorite family activity at house. It is simple to use, and simply the most fun way to keep you, your family and friends fit. Also, Wii Fit along with the balance board takes this a step further as it is even more interactive, requiring more physical input. Keeping fit is indeed an ongoing process. It helps set fitness goals, track progress and work with a virtual trainer to do activities and exercises every day. It can weigh you in at any time, and let you know where you fall on the body mass index scale as well as giving you your weight in pounds.
The Balance Board has one drawback. Jumping seems like the natural thing to do in some of the activities, but unfortunately, it doesn't want you to jump on it. Meanwhile, the biggest problem would be the inability to set up a sequence of activities that you could run through one after the other. Wii Fit allows a player to keep track of activities outside of the game, which are then added on to the player's activity log, but not included in the daily exercise time. It gives you all these different yoga poses and exercises, but it never gives you any sort of big-picture overview of how to design a workout routine for yourself.
Even though Wii Fit isn't perfect, the feedback you get from the Balance Board makes it easily the best "exercise-game" yet. It should be great for anyone and what's good is Nintendo actually thinks about the people playing their games. This game is an excellent way to introduce a little physical activity into your daily routine -- if you can manage to find a copy. It works because it shows you everyday how much you weigh, how much time you have invested, and how well you are doing on your exercises. As for the training activities, both balance and aerobic workouts do a great job of masking the science behind them and these are probably Wii Fit's greatest strength.
