Crazy new exercise thing, day 2

[dianec42]

I like it! You can set up a routine and just go. The trainer is WAY less annoying than the Wii Fit one -- at least so far (and you can turn down the chattiness, I checked).

There are still only so many exercises you can do whilst clutching a Wiimote, but these people are pretty darned creative about some of them.

I don't think the sporty games have a lefty mode, which will be irritating for some people.

Also, I suck at catching baseballs, even virtual ones. I'm not actually surprised. (I do apparently have a mean backhand though! The tennis and boxing are awesome for taking out one's pent-up aggressions.)

Ok. Tonight's goal: Buy a Wii and Wii fit. End of line.

We capitulated, we'd been debating picking it up for a bit, and Target actually had some on the shelf. I think DS likes the skating and stuff, and that his toon is as tall as Dad's- but laments that he can't blow things up.

No, no lefty mode. It's not such a big deal working out, but I'm not so great aiming it with my right hand.

Sticking with the canned workouts for the most part. I got the 'make your own workout' achievement, though! DING!

Of course, what I still want for the winter is really good controls and display for my bike and mag trainer. One day...
