Anyone got it?

I can surprisingly jog for longer on the spot than i can on a treadmill (that could be normal for all people).

Loving the yoga as well :D

Me ma' and pa' just got this and theyre doing their bit each day... course they are still doing their 20 benson and hedges each a day and eating Tescos finest pre packed meals all the time.. but its a start.

...actually im not sure its a good thing, i could do with their house sooner rather than later :)

when you are as unfit as i am, it looks like it could actually be quite good.
no there isnt anything majorly hard in the muscle section but it does give you a nice workout (if you chain things quite quickly).

some good balance games as well, which is a big help, though for my weight i have surprisingly good balance!

I'm going to get one of these I think... the Wii has been stuck in a cupboard for nearly 12 months gathering dust, maybe this could reignite some interest??

the jogging is quite hard, it doesnt seem to pick up my leg movements too well so it runs slower than i am actually jogging.
step is funny as hell, im good at that!

super hula is pretty damn funny, stupid wife filmed my fat ass doing it, gotta love my motion haha

Mario kart 64 :P what a game! Diddy kong racing was cool too. Makes me wanna go dig it out from undr the bed - only I'd get stuck into goldeneye again and there would be no training for at least a year and could lead to a relapse into more dodgy recreational habits...

Just so we're clear- SNES on the Mario Kart is so clearly superior to the N64 that it's not even funny, and anyone saying otherwise is a raging Sonic The Hedgehog fan. That is all.
