Life Fitness GS4 Multi Gym

I used to hate going to the gym but Wii Fit has transformed Mii

Advantages: Helps improve posture and fitness in a fun way
Disadvantages: You may get bored of the activities after a while and not great if you are already very fit

Ever since the Wii Fit came out I was determined to get one. I have gym membership but I work long hours and often don't have the energy after work to trek up to the gym, do a work out and still have to make it home afterwards. If truth be told, I also don't have the self motivation to go to the gym regularly. I thought the Wii Fit would give me a way of getting fit without feeling like I was actually working out. When I finally got my Wii Fit for my birthday I was over the moon! The Wii Fit consists of a disc and Wii balance board which you synchronise with your Wii. This is very simple and only takes a minute or 2 to follow the simple instructions and sync the board. When you have inserted the disc and synchronised the board, you go to the main menu where you choose a Mii, which is your on screen persona. You choose from ...

Review of Wii Fit (Wii)

A great home multi gym

Advantages: Great value for money, plenty of weights
Disadvantages: Takes a while to build, inability to add additional weights

use it would be. I had been looking at getting back to a gym but never got around to it. The decision was made to buy a multi-gym. ****Choosing the correct multi-gym*** There are many home multi-gyms in the market and I was at a total loss what to get. There are a few questions that need to be answered such as What are my goals? How much weight is required to achieve this? (determines the size of the weight stack) What exercises do I need to do to achieve my goals? How much am I willing to spend? How much room have I got available. Once the type of gym has been narrowed down it is then important to look at manufacturers, such as York, Weider, Marcy, Powerline, V-Fit to name but a few. I found this process an arduous task and decided to ask someone who knows. I discussed my requirements with a chap at Fitness Superstore who ...

Review of Weider Pro 5500 Home Multi Gym

Wii fit works

Advantages: Does keep you fit, endorsed by the government
Disadvantages: Limited to their workouts doesn't allow you to do your own

Wii Fit takes exercise to a new level with the inclusion of a balance board and allows exercise to be fun as it's incorporated into a game. I'd recommend this to people who are perhaps a bit shy to go to the gym or aerobics classes etc. It is even been recently endorsed by several medical associations. Unfortunately, Wii Fit does have some problems with not being able to create your own workouts from the available exercises, which does limit its effectiveness both as a fitness tool and as a game. I conclude that if you are looking at keeping fit on a serious level then either get a multi-gym or join a gym, but if you prefer a bit of fun on a less serious level, then Wii fit is definitely the choice for you ...
