Wii Fit Now Cheaper

My favorite fitness game Nintendo Wii Fit got cheaper this week. On September 27, 2009, Nintendo released the news that the price for the Wii console was dropped from the original $249.99 to only $199.99. The Wii console is available at Amazon.com. Buying at Amazon is a good way to go because they are fast and reliable and they give good customer service.

I posted about the wii fit fitness game a while ago. I did it every day for 3 months but have not done it for several weeks now since we went on holiday to the YK for a month. Any break in these fitness regimens and you find it hard to get back into it. Why I don’t know since I enjoyed the program. This has reminded me to start again!

We also got Wii Sport thrown in when we bought our wii fit and I have played with that a lot. I love the tennis game in Wii Sport and got quite addicted to it. It is very good exercise that has me sweating! So I can highly recommend that you buy Wii Fit .

Wii Fit Is Fantastic!

I am getting completely addicted to Wii Fit which I only bought last week. I am finding it very easy to do a good hour of exercise with it every morning. This couch potato is doing really well with Wii Fit and Wii Sport. I only discovered Nintendo Wii Fit a couple of weeks ago when I was reading a weight loss forum. Nintendo is new to me as I have no interest in playing games. But I am always trying to find ways to keep fit and work off some fat so when I read about wii fit I had to try it.

The Wii Fit bundle I bought included Wii Sport and I am enjoying that too. I love the tennis and will need to buy a second remote so I can play the games with my husband. Wii Sport includes golf, baseball,boxing, bowling and tennis.

But Wii Fit was the main program I wanted and although purchasing the console and the Wii fit together is a little expensive it is worth every penny. It is actually much cheaper than a gym and much more fun. There are dozens of exercise routines you can do and as you do them new ones are unlocked so you couldn’t ever complain of being bored. Routines include yoga, aerobics, balance exercises and strength training and they are great fun.

The balance exercises are my favorite. They include a downhill ski jump, a ski slalom and a snowboard slalom, tightrope walking and being a penguin trying to catch fish while balanced on an ice berg! I am not doing very well on these but they are fun!

You get feedback in the form of points and so you aim to beat your own scores. Because they are fun and competitive you don’t notice that wii fit is exercise. The picture on the left shows a jogging routine and the other picture shows a balance game. You have to get the balls into the holes using your body balance.

I love Wii Fit! It is absolutely the best exercise I have found to keep me at it. I highly recommend this for anyone who has ever begun an exercise program and abandoned it. Or anyone who never even got around a to starting an exercise program in the first place. I am one of those who has joined a gym several times and never kept it up.

If you really want to exercise but just can’t get going with it Wii Fit is perfect for you.

You can get a very good price for the complete Nintendo Console plus Wii Fit at Amazon.com. Just click here to check it out.

At Home Workouts

If you want to get into some exercise to lose weight you might consider using home exercise DVDs. I have 4 of the Dummies DVDs which I find absolutely perfect for exercising at home. Here are the ones that I have tried and liked. These are basic home exercises for weight loss and health, not intended for gym bunnies and other super fit people.

“15 Minute Workouts For Dummies“ DVD is great for short daily strength training sessions. You do strength training on a different part of your body for 15 minutes each day and although it is quite vigorous its OK because it doesn’t last long. Because it is every day it makes it much easier to form a habit and habits help when you are trying to get fit and lose fat. You simply decide on a good time and you will soon find I just becomes part of your daily routine. I use this DVD myself and I can reccomend it.

“Shaping Up With Weights for Dummies” This is a really good strength training workout DVD for beginners because it shows you how to get the correct form. It is important to do strength training exercises correctly to get the most out of your workout and so that you do not injure yourself.

This workout is 45 minutes long but it is quite leisurely. The instructor stops between each set and explains how to do it. You don’t get up much of a sweat, but its very good for beginners or the older user. I think you would need to progress to something a bit more challenging after a few weeks. I certainly found that to be the case.

“Fat Burning For Dummies” For cardio exercise you can’t beat this one. One of the reviewers on Amazon said she found it tricky to follow. I didn’t, I loved this workout. Anything new that isn’t so easy that its deadly boring requires a little bit of learning the first few times and this is no exception. You soon get the hang of it and it gives you a great endorphin high because it has you really moving. This is my favorite of all the Dummies weight loss DVDs.

“Fat to Firm Fitness Ball Workout “ Here is yet another option in the Dummies weight loss DVD series. It is good to have a few of these workouts so that you don’t get bored. I have this one and like it. You can have a really good workout using the ball and yet its gentle. The fitness balls are not expensive, you can get one at Amazon when you order the DVD.

I can recommend all of these weight loss workouts as I have used them myself. I have put the Dummies Weight Loss and fitness DVDs with links on the top right so that you can easily check them out.

The great thing about starting off your exercise at home is that you can put the pause button on when you need to and you needn’t worry about how you think you look or about how co-ordi

nated you are!

I highly recommend the Dummies Weight Loss workout DVDs.
