Wii Fit Plus with Balance Board

I recently purchased the Wii Fit Plus with Balance Board, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations. The setup process was incredibly easy and straightforward. I was able to get everything up and running in just a few minutes, thanks to the clear instructions provided.The balance board itself is well-constructed and feels sturdy. It's easy to step on and off, and it accurately detects my movements. The games and exercises included in Wii Fit Plus are both fun and challenging. I particularly enjoy the yoga and strength training activities. They provide a great workout and help me stay motivated to keep moving.One of the best features is the ability to track my progress over time. I can see how my fitness level has improved and set new goals for myself. This has been a great addition to my home workout routine, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and engaging way to stay fit.

This game is a must have for Wii owners! I wasn't sure what to expect when I purchased this game for my wife. It has received so many wonderful reviews. Very few people dislike this product. And sure enough, it has been a big hit ever since we booted it up!Wii Fit Plus primarily strengthens your balance. In doing so, it also strengthens several muscles in your body. I never thought balance was a big deal until I played this game. I don't think anyone will get "ripped" from playing this game, but that really isn't the point. It gets you off the couch, aligns your balance, tones muscles, and makes it fun to workout!This game is a great supplement to any workout program. I did resistance training, push-ups, pull-ups, and sit-ups almost daily before using this program. Now I get to do some yoga, aerobics, and more strength training with Wii Fit Plus. It just makes my workout program more complete. It has much to offer.I highly recommend this game to any Wii owner. This is not a substitute for hardcore training in the gym. Keep that in mind if you are looking to try to shed some serious pounds or get ripped. You will see modest results from using this game daily, especially in your center of balance. And of course, it is fun to play!The have plenty of mini-games to choose from. My favorite mini-game so far is the "Soccer Heading". It is so much fun! You lean slightly to one side to shift your balance and then move forward to head butt soccer balls as they are being kicked at the goal you are defending. My 3 year old son goes crazy in a fit of laughter when we play that game. It is so much fun!UPDATE (January 11th): With more use, I am finding that, in addition to centering your balance, this program also does wonders for toning your body. I'm already noticing a more toned look in a very short time. The weight loss isn't there, but the muscles are more firm and my balance is improving.UPDATE (February 4th): I've been playing Wii Fit Plus for almost 6 weeks now. I haven't missed a day in 4 weeks. At this point, the biggest thing I'm noticing is how much more tone I am. My abs look a bit better. My legs feel more firm. Overall, I feel lighter on my feet. It has really helped a lot with my overall balance, which is something I never really thought about training.In the strength training, you can open up 3 challenges - the Jackknife, the Plank, and the Push-ups challenge. I beat the Jackknife challenge, which is insane! You have to do 100 jackknives!! I made it to 136 seconds on the plank before I started to sag and the trainer pulled the plug on me. And I did 40 push-ups today, which I think is alot. But there is still two more levels to go before it is beaten. And the last level on the challenges seems to be ridiculously hard.If I could make a recommendation to Nintendo for Wii Fit 3, I would ask them to account for your performances in the exercises more when showing what your Wii character looks like. I'm pretty strong, and you can see my muscles. But my Wii character has no shoulders and is all spare tire! Your character swells at the mid-section when registering your BMI. What about muscles!?!? If a person beats the challenges, give them some muscles on their Wii character.I've gained 3 pounds since I started using Wii Fit Plus about 6 weeks ago. But I'm certain most of that is muscle. In the next Wii Fit, you could also have people put in measurements of their biceps, chest, and thighs. Just an idea.UPDATE (August 6th): I've lost 8 or 9 pounds this year so far. I've been using the Wii Fit since Christmas 2010. I still use it a few times each week. But I haven't had the time to use it every day as I was initially. I'm still seeing results. I work outdoors and get good exercise from that. The yoga really helps keep my limber. The ab exercises (plank, jackknife, twists, etc.) are great too. The key is to do this stuff at least a few times a week over a long period of time. I'm a fan of the Wii Fit software. I hope they expand it with the next Wii that is coming out next year. Expand the yoga exercises to double what you offer now. Expand the strength training as well. The more exercises offered the better.UPDATE (November 22nd): It's almost one full year now using Wii Fit. It just simply works. My core has a much better shape to it now. And I am much more flexible now as well. My weight is still about the same, but I've found that the Wii Fit helps me keep weight off rather than helping me lose weight.I get a great feeling after a 20 minute workout of yoga and strength exercises. I rarely go over 25 minutes a session. I've had routines where I went 6 weeks in a row without missing a day. And I went through months where I used the Wii Fit maybe only 2 or 3 times a week. But I've kept it ever present in my life this year. I never went more then 4 or 5 days without using it. I can't imagine owning a Wii and not using the Wii Fit. It is awesome and IT WORKS!

Every since I got the wii in 2009 I have been wanting the wiifit! I was thrilled that I waited long enough to get the wiifit plus at a great price! Wow!At first I was the only one loving it, then I got my sister to LOVE it too. I have been doing it nearly every day (for at least 30 mint per day) since I got it at the beginning of January. Its cute, and fun and interactive. I love the way it cheers you on, helps you out, its like your own personal coach.Is it easy? Nearly for sure! I am still learning little details, and as I go along it only gets more fun. I get bored easily so the fact I have continued to use it almost every day for almost 2 months says a lot about it. And my sister? She loves doing it too!And if you are really into it. Add your pets! You can add babies & pets but just for weight. Its fun to see how the pets weigh but dont be surprised if the wiiboard asks to see your pets as often as you even if they can NOT work out like that!There are more features that I have yet to do, like two remotes and getting the hang of working with my sister on it. But there is plenty of time. I have tried nearly every exercise minus the ones in Yoga & Strength (tried a few in each but not ALL of them). I love how you can advance up on some things. Its a great goal. You are working to get fit and working like a game. In fact each exercise is like a game one big video game. But a work out.And if nothing else convinces you. My sister has used the "running" exercises and then when she went back outside to work out on a run she said that doing the wiifit running HELPED her to run more. She is able to run more and longer because of her wii training. She says that from doing it you are running for real and going outside you will see its for real! So rest assured.Finally if you do anything that burns calories whether its actual exercise (like running), using a pedimeter for steps, or just cleaning the house you can ADD those into your daily exercise log. You can even log food like a journal. I mean this thing gets better and better.So jump on in and have the best fun of your life. I am sure you will love it and it will be worth it to you as you burn calories and never get bored from all the fun you are having!!!! :))
