Wii Fit for Families

Posted by Jennifer White May 26, 2008

Wii Fit debuted this Tuesday and my family got one. I must admit that I was a little intimidated by the balance board at first. However, we got to know each other and got along just fine.

While I won't be sharing what it said my weight and BMI is, I am proud to relate that my "Wii Fit Age" is five years younger than my actual age. So I must be doing something right.

We had fun using Wii Fit to practice the balance games, strength training, yoga, and aerobic exercises. While I have my doubts that Wii Fit will give the same advantages of working out at the gym, I do think it will inspire activity in families.

It's not just about getting kids moving, but parents as well. Wii Fit makes fitness fun, which for many people that's half the battle.

Hopefully I'll be making by BMI goal in a few weeks.
