Sweat, pain and sore muscles - looks like a typical evening with some friends and a Nintendo Wii. I really like the gaming console from Nintendo. Video games used to be for coach potatoes and slackers, but the Wii forces you to move a little bit more than just your thumbs.
Check out the available wii games and you will find a lot of 'sports games'. I remember the first night we played 'Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games'. Sweat was dropping down my chin and my hands and arms were sore.
A couple of month ago Nintendo released Wii Fit. The game is sold with the Balance Board. Wii Fit is more than just a collection of mini-games like Wii Sports. It is a virtual personal trainer. Wii Fit features more than 50 exercises including Yoga, Aerobic and strength training. It also calculates your BMI and weight; and you can set certain training goals.
There a lot of posts about the Nintendo Wii and Wii Fit, check out the 30 day test from Engadget or
keep fit with wii fit from blood pressure monitoring.
