Advantages: Works with the Wii Balance Board and includes diet menus Disadvantages: The Wii Balance Board doesn't always give accurate scoring
I bought my Wii Fit when it first came on to the market but after a while using it becomes quite frustrating and tedious so I have advanced to other programmes using the Wii in order to improve my fitness. When I saw that FitnessFirst were brining out a Wii Fitness programme I just had to give it a try.
I placed and advance order with Amazon for the game and now I am pleased to say it has arrived.
Out of the Box
I have never really been known for my patience so it wasn't too long after the postman had delivered it before I had opened the case and put the disc into the console. I was very pleased to see that it was simplicity itself to get started (no need to read the instructions at this stage!). I had to enter my name and basic details to set up my profile and it used the Wii Balance Board to check my weight. I ...
Advantages: great for weightloss, fun for all the family, improves posture, balance and health Disadvantages: expensive, can only register up to 8 family members
. This is basically step aerobics where on the screen you are shown the steps to move through and can also see other characters (including the members of your family!) working out next to you. The first level of this is more to improve your co-ordination and get you moving but the advanced level is nearly a 10 minute workout and if you keep up with the speed of it can really get your heart pounding. A couple of rounds of this and you will be all sweaty and disgusting!! The steps all include the balance board and if you hit the steps perfectly in time to the beat you get a perfect and if you hit it slightly off you get an ok - this all relates to a score so as with all the other wii fit activities there is a scoreboard. This particular one has recently become a huge battle between me and my brother as he has spent hours getting an all perfect ...

Advantages: The Balance Board technology is outstanding Disadvantages: It can be quite expensive
clever really. And in some games, such as the snowboarding game, you have to turn the Balance Board sideways to slide down a slope. It detects you if you haven't turned it sideways. And in another game, when you are doing a Ski Jump, it detects you if you actually jump on the Balance Board. And it restarts the game because of that.
Body Test
When you first start the game you have to do a Body Test. A Body Test in Wii Fit measures your weight, height and BMI. Once you have done those three you have the optional choice to do some further tests and see your Wii Fit age. Doing so, you receive more tests, such as;
STILLNESS TEST: Where you have to stand as still as possible.
BASIC BALANCE TEST: You have to lean either to side to side to get your balance into a blue area on the screen.
MOVEMENT TEST*:You have to balance yourself so you get ...
