Nintendo Wii Fit Starter Bundle Review: Does Wii Fit Work for Me?

You’ve heard so much about Wii Fit, and many of you might have the question on your mind “Does Wii Fit Work?” I bought my Nintendo Wii Fit Starter Bundle online three months ago. During the past three months, I’ve been playing the Wii Fit Starter Bundle on regular basis. So I’d be glad to share my Wii Fit workout experience with you.

What’s  in the Nintendo Wii Fit Starter Bundle?
I placed an order online and received my Wii Fit Starter Bundle in the mail three days later. I couldn’t contain my excitement while opening the package. The package included my long-awaited Wii Fit game and Balance Board. I already got my Wii game console earlier this year along with all the necessary accessories such as the Wii remotes and nunchuck, so I was ready to start playing Wii Fit right away.

Exercises included in the Wii Fit Starter Bundle
There are over 40 different types of training activities offered by Wii Fit, including traditional exercises such as step aerobics, jogging, as well as modern stress busters such as Yoga and meditation. You can also choose  other fund exercises such as Hula Hoops, Snowboarding and rhythm boxing. The exercises offered by Wii Fit are so diverse that every member of your family will find their favorite ones no matter how old or physically active they are.

The pressure-sensitive balance board that comes with the Wii Fit Starter Bundle can hold up to a maximum of 300 pounds. Since quite a few of the Wii Fit games are based on player’s balance of her body, this is where the balance board comes in. Similar to a step aerobics board in appearance, the Wii Fit Balance Board can also measure player’s performance as well as weight, which alongside the height, age and gender determine the player’s Body Mass Index (BMI).

My Workout experience with Wii Fit Starter Bundle
I set up my Wii Fit system as soon as I got the bundle. Firstly, I entered basic personal data such as height, age and gender as instructed by Wii console. The machine calculated my BMI and my fitness level shortly. After my profile creation was complete, I was ready to start getting a taste of Wii Fit.

I am always a fan of Strength Training. So I started with muscle-toning exercises such as Leg lift, Squat, Lunge and more. Wii Fit offered Push-up challenge and it was quite fun. I also played Yoga with the Wii balance board. I have been practicing Yoga for quite a while, so I had no problem in catching up with Yoga poses included in the Wii Fit, such as Cobra, Bridge, Spinal Twist, Shoulder Stand, Warrior and more. It was actually quite interesting to play Yoga with Wii Fit.

My favorite exercise so far is Hula Hoop. It was quite challenging to keep the hoops in the air in the beginning. After a couple of days’ training, I learned how to balance myself. After that, keeping all the hoops in the air while catching some more was really enjoyable. And it was a great workout too.

Does Wii Fit Work for me?
I have been playing with Wii Fit for 40 minutes a day, 3 days per week, during the past three months. Here is the result I’d like to share with you: I lost 4 pounds so far and dropped from size 8 to size 6. I eat like usual during these three months. So I think Wii Fit does work for me, and I will keep exercising and shaping up with Wii Fit.

Will Wii Fit work for you?
Many of you might be on the fence asking “Will Wii Fit work for me?” My answer is “Yes, it will. As long as you do it right and do it regularly.” Don’t get me wrong, Wii Fit  is not going to make you lose weight if you eat excessively and doing 10 minutes a day on Wii Fit. You have to watch your lifestyle and diet too. If you exercise with Wii Fit regularly with a healthy diet, you will be happy to see the result 3 months later just as I did.

Wii Fit is like a home gym membership to some extent. However it is much more fun, and provides more motivations to get people started, especially for those who don’t have time hitting the gym every other day, or just simply don’t like go to the gym. Wii Fit turns the exercises into a fun experience. And there are so many activities included in the Wii Fit game that you wouldn’t feel bored at all.

To sum up, Wii Fit works for me, and it will work for you as long as you manage your expectation and keep a long-time commitment.

Question by Briana P: How to make a career out of Nutrition and Fitness?
I would like to make more of a career out of Nutrition and Fitness, but am unsure of a good path. I would like formal training/certification, but not necessarily a 4-year degree since I’m in my late 20s and work full time now.

If I become a nutritionist, I don’t focus as much on fitness. If I become a personal trainer/instructor, I don’t get the training in proper diet. Any suggestions on what career or certification would be a good mix of nutrition and fitness?

Best answer:

Answer by Flizbap
As far as I know, neither Nutritionist nor personal trainer are protected terms, so all you need to do is make up business cards and you are in business.

However to be at the top of the heap, becoming a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist should be your ultimate goal.

Question by Pepplin L: How would you deal with a mom that keeps telling you “you could lose some weight”?!?
It hurts me inside so badly now. She is beautiful and thin I’m chunky. I’ve lost 5 pounds this week purging food and when I told her that she said “good, keep it up”. I want my mom to love me for who I am on the inside but I don’t think she’s able to. I’ve been on all kinds of diets and diet pills, I try to eat well & exercise. What should I do about my mom she really makes me HATE myself..?

Can someone give an explanation of the process of weight loss? (this is not a “how do I lose weight” question)

By On June 23, 2011 1 Comment

Question by klesue2: Can someone give an explanation of the process of weight loss? (this is not a “how do I lose weight” question)
So I have been hearing many different explanations concerning how weight is actually lost, and I would like to clear up the misconceptions that I might have. For example, one person told me that the only way that one can lose weight is to burn more than is taken in daily, which seems nearly impossible unless you want to eat nothing but celery and work out for hours. Another thing I have heard, however, is that an actual pound is equal to about 3000 calories, and every time that amount is burned, a pound is lost. So basically, I run for about 25 mins 5 times a week and apparently burn around 200 calories each time. Is it true that every time these instances of 200 calories burned add up to around 3000 a bit of weight is lost? Could someone tell me how it truly works, because in all honesty, I really am trying to have a healthier lifestyle but as of right now it seems impossible to do and I am getting discouraged.(I am 5′7 and weight about 150 and would love to lose about 15 pounds)

Best answer:

Answer by shapedy
The way to do it is burn more than you take in. But it’s not nearly as impossible as you think it is. You’re burning calories constantly during the day just from your daily lifestyle, you just need to burn a few more.

Calories are a unit of energy and pounds are a unit of weight, so they do not translate consistently.
