Nintendo Wii Fit Plus with Balance Board

I can't say enough good things about the Nintendo Wii Fit Plus and Balance Board Bundle in White. It's been a total game-changer for me when it comes to staying active and having fun at the same time.First off, let me tell you how easy it was to get started. Setting up the balance board and getting everything connected to my Wii was a breeze. Within minutes, I was ready to dive into the world of Wii Fit Plus.And let me tell you, the variety of exercises and activities is seriously impressive. From yoga and strength training to fun mini-games that get your heart pumping, there's something for everyone. I've even roped my friends and family into joining me for multiplayer challenges – it's a blast!What I love most is how it doesn't feel like a chore to work out anymore. The games are so engaging that I find myself wanting to come back for more every day. Plus, the feedback and progress tracking features keep me motivated to keep pushing myself.If you're looking for a fun and effective way to get moving and improve your fitness, look no further than the Nintendo Wii Fit Plus Bundle. It's been a total lifesaver for me, and I can't recommend it enough!

Following a trip to my doctor regarding weight loss and hoping for a prescription for one of those new slimming pills I was instead prescribed a Wii! He had just bought one and was trying to get a go as his children were hogging it. You can read my review of the Wii elsewhere, but if you have one do obtain one of these balance boards and a Wii Fit Plus game.Providing you are less than 23 stone this board will hold your weight, and as it uses four AA batteries I advise getting a charger (the Duracell one is very good). The game will weigh you, test your fitness level and tell you your fitness age. You can just do this if you are short on time, or opt for their freestyle training program. Choose from a variety of different exercise types from fun sports to running, yoga to hula hoping, stepping on a treadmill, boxing and the more traditional exercises involving balancing, stretching and all of that. As you get better there are more advanced options and new routines will appear. As well as the board you will use the Wiimote and Nunchuk...apart from that, just your body.The graphics are attractive and easy to see, the setting being the idyllic Wuhu Island which looks delightfully like the illustrations in a manga novel. You will explore it as you run around it and also in other options where you ride a bike, or even a Segway. Other locations include a typical gymnasium (choose a male or female instructor), boxing training room and catwalk in space where you leap logs, demolition balls and jump onto moving platforms. None of the games or workouts take more than about ten minutes to complete and you can choose how much you do. This is surely the beauty of this program; you don't need much time to set it up and get moving.Have I lost any weight? No, but I haven't gained any either which is a definite plus and I certainly feel better.

Bought this item as a family present at Christmas to accompany the Wii console we got last year. Even the unpacking instructions on the box were a really clever touch, and the balance board is so sturdy. A really well put together piece of kit.Setting up was as easy as adding a new controller, flick the switch, press the button & presto, you're ready. Lob in the CD to the console and start. All the Mii's from the plaza come over and the information previously stored does too.You start by being weighed and tested to give you a Wii-fit age which can be part of a daily routine with this item (or not). The down side is that if you are not that good at some of the tests your age goes up, so you have to take it with a pinch of salt / don't be too serious about it.If you want some fun there are plenty of games that hide the fact that you are actually working some muscles (until later when you ache) and for the fitness gurus, there are yoga and muscle workouts too. The latter are really common sense exercises that perhaps most of us wouldn't normally think to do but they work well. You can set yourself targets and burn off some calories and it has enough good sense to remind you to take a break too.As an over 40, my wife and I both enjoy playing on it regularly. The kids, like fireworks, burned brightly on it for a fortnight and have now fizzled out a bit, possibly with getting back to school.Even guests who pop round succumb to playing on it. Absolute winner.
