In a bid to lose a few pounds after uni (too much alcohol & too many takeaways) I was looking for a good all round exercise machine, and ellipticaltrainers were recommended by some friends.
"Why?" I enquired.
"The answer is simple" came the reply, "they are a great cardiovascular work out and the pedals mimic the body's natural movements when running, so essentially you are running, but there is no impact - saving your joints and bones!"
"Genius!" I replied.
And so my quest to buy a machine began.
After looking at a variety of makes and models, I decided upon the York 3100 EllipticalTrainer & Cycle. It looked the sturdiest, could handle the most maximum weight (16 stone - not that I was this large, but obviously the larger the maximum weight, the stronger the machine), was from a brand that I had heard of and trusted ...
Advantages: great for weightloss, fun for all the family, improves posture, balance and health Disadvantages: expensive, can only register up to 8 family members
adaptations you can make in terms of colours in your own profile and you can use buttons to zoom in and even view your personal trainer from a different angle (I walked in once to find my little brother chuckling as he changed the view of his female personal trainer to view her from behind as she did press-ups!)

After this initial set up - whenever you want to use the program you just move the Wii balance board in front of the television, press ...

ONE LEG TEST*: In this test you have to stand on one leg and stay as still as possible.
*These tests do not have the correct name.
After you have completed two tests, it presents to you your very own Wii Fit age. (It's like Brain Training). It uses your real age to compare it to your results. If its over your real age, your body is weaker than it should be whereas if its your real age or below your body is stronger than it should be. You have an optional choice to take the Body Test everyday. It is best if you do. When you finish the Body Test you can get on with Training. But before you do, you can chose your own trainer. You can chose between a Male of Female trainer. Then that would be your trainer for all Yoga and Muscle Workouts. And one last thing, right before you can do any training ...
