weight, centre of gravity etc and feeds this back wirelessly to the Wii console plugged into your television.
Therefore, Wii Fit is the software, which enables you to use the Wii balance board to improve your health. The Wii fit is simply a disk which when inserted into the console will allow you to set up a profile. This profile will include a cartoon animation version of yourself called a "Mii" which you can create using an inbuilt program on the Wii. You are then asked to record details about your name, date of birth and height. The program will do some initial tests such as weighing you, telling you your BMI and giving you some balance tests. The software then offers a variety of games, activities and features, which I will explain in sections.

Advantages: The Balance Board technology is outstanding Disadvantages: It can be quite expensive
Intro
Wii Fit is something quite difficult to review. But people think that playing things like Wii Fit, is doing them good. Like take Brain Training, it would make you smarter, or something like Guitar Hero would make them feel like rockstars. But does Wii Fit actually make you fit? I think yes. It does make you fit. It does actually work! Like balancing on the Balance Board improves your posture and balance. Muscle exercises grows and tightens your muscles. Aerobics games make you lose weight. Which in fact it does. But personally, I went jogging for 20 minutes and it said I GAINED one pound. Which must be a glitch, if you ask me. And today, Wii Fit costs £69.99 ($89.99) which may be a little on the pricey side. But amusing if you can afford it, it is so much worth to buy and helps you stay much in great shape. It's so very worth ...

Advantages: Easy way to keep fit. Disadvantages: Can't think of any.
Last Christmas, my mum (a.k.a. "Santa") got the family a Wii Fit - hinting at my sister and I that we need to keep fit. I'm going to admit, I'm a bit fat. Now, I'm not one of those people you see in documentaries who can't get out of bed because they're huge but I could stand to lose a stone or two. I used to go to the gym twice a week but I found it too difficult and it was straining keeping up with my trainer, and I felt embarassed whenever I told him I couldn't do something. I did lose about half a stone though so I was happy about that. When I started using the Wii fit I was a bit anxious about trying it out because it had been a while since I'd been to the gym and I wasn't too keen to let my family see how unfit I was! However, I've been using it on-and-off since Christmas and it's great! It's been about a month since I last used it ...
