The answer is the same as it is for workout DVDs and even expensive gym memberships: Wii fitness games such as Wii Active work as long as you commit to doing them consistently.
Great results can actually be achieved with Wii fitness games if you get into the fun and stick with them long term. It’s just like any other workout program in that you get back what you put into each workout.
Yet, there is something that Wii fitness games have over DVD workouts: they’re a lot more fun since you can see a computerized version of yourself or your trainer sweating it out on the TV screen before you! Many games will also track your progress in terms of weight and fitness levels, which adds extra incentive to stick with the program in the long run.
Right now, the fitness game that seems to be delivering the best results is Wii Active. It is a complete training program that gives guidance and support as you design a total body workout plan or even take the ultra-motivating 30-day challenge. It is essentially an virtual personal trainer right in your own living room.
Wii Active features a variety of workout options, including upper and lower body strength and a wide variety of cardio workouts. You could find yourself running around a virtual track one day and kickboxing the next…all from the comfort of your own living room!
