Advantages: great for weightloss, fun for all the family, improves posture, balance and health Disadvantages: expensive, can only register up to 8 family members
im not all that bothered about that I never get round to it. However, with the wii fit its in the living room and I can do it in the privacy of my own home. If im going to get hot and sweaty I can do it in some old clothes or pyjamas and then have a proper bath or shower in the comfort of my house. I'd never get round to going to the gym but with the wii fit entering my line of vision every time I walk past the television its hard to resist!!! The added element of competition definitely helps too!
Every now and then the program will also ask your family members to comment on various aspects of your health. For example my brother got a question about whether I was looking any thinner and gave him a variety of options - he delighted in selecting an option saying that I looked fatter!!

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.

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 ...

Advantages: Helps you lose weight, tracks your progress Disadvantages: You need quite a bit of space for the balance board
' account which enables you to log exercise such as swimming, walking, running, tennis etc. in addition to your wii fit training which I think is good because although the wii fit is a good, I don't think it should be a substitute for cardio exercise. I use it mainly to tone up and do the yoga to help my posture, and on occasion I do an hour's training if I haven't been able to go to the gym.
I feel that I have invested well in the wii fit, as it is a great supplement to my normal routine of swimming four times a week. My posture has improved as well as my centre of gravity and I think it is money well spent. ...
