987762 tn?1671273328 I also use some other games for the Wii to get a little bit of exercise.
649848 tn?1534633700 I know there are several different kinds of yoga, ranging from what I do, which is slow and deliberate to another type that is very physical. Each kind of yoga has its own name and no, I don't know them all. I have read that some people try them all and never do find one they like and some people, like me, find one they like and stick with it. Some people prefer to get into a class because they like the "group" aspect. Personally, I prefer to do it in the privacy of my home.
Avatar f tn You know, I don't think this IS off topic. We've talked in autism circles about how the Wii Fit is great as therapy for kids with motor issues, and I use mine for many things. First, it's indoors, so when it's 95 degrees here in Texas outside (which it is lately), I can still exercise. Second, it checks your balance for you and helps you correct it, which is great because it makes me more aware of how to hold myself for more evenly distributed balance.
Avatar n tn just added it to my MS symptom management and swear in just a month I feel a difference. I use the Wii Fit, so progress is logged. When I first started, it showed me at Wii Fit age 54 (I am 43), I am now ranging from ages 31 to 36 (range is directly affected by factors such as diet and weather which can cause the MS symptoms to be problematic on any given day). But haven't been older then my real age in weeks!! Been using the Wii about 2 months now.
750946 tn?1270288132 Well, I did good tonight ----- pretty proud of myself.........I got hubby to walk the dogs and I went to work on my Wii Fit...... I did 20 minutes of yoga and about 12 minutes of step aerobics, for a total of 32 minutes -- THEN I did 5 reps of each of 3 stretching exercises that my doctor gave me for my back!! It's not a lot, but it's 37 minutes more than I've been able to accomplish recently........... I'm going to try to find that dvd this weekend.
703362 tn?1427766328 Goku - you're doing great. You've been an inspiration to us all. I could sort of balance on one leg before Wii Fit, because I'd been doing yoga for a while, but I was still pretty shaky!! Some days, I feel like I'm still pretty shaky, but then I remind myself that I'm no teenager anymore either, so I try not to be too hard on myself!! lol.
566103 tn?1228385767 WOW Barb you are lucky then and in good shape im so bent out of shape it aint funny! That wii fit gave me an age of 52 and im just 27!!! lol hopefully it goes down over time! oh and yes the boxing is so great for your arms mine just the day after doing that game!!
193609 tn?1292180293 ok maybe thats bad but i have gone by it since i got it but i know its right on considering my clothes fit! I think wii fit is great and peeps need to stop complaining lol its like any other exercise machine do it and it works!!! I have no complaints it helped me lose my first like 8lbs but just starting you have to add something else eventually!! But FUN? Yes it is!!
159063 tn?1247272817 if you look on the back of the Wii game it will tell you what you need to use to play the game. For example, if it just uses the remote, there will be a little picture of a Wii remote. If it uses the Wii mat, there will be a little symbol of the Wii mat.
616227 tn?1251076398 So last nite i was totally bad gave in to my burger craving *tisk tisk* i know but i knew if i was going to put that high calorie food in my mouth i must be willing to pay for it so today i got up right away did my 10 mins cardio then i did attempt your squats which like twehner said brutal!! but i did 2 sets of 10 on each one!!
1116556 tn?1345115906 Other than yoga (because it bores me to tears), what exercises work really well for people who experience constant pain? Before my dx, I loved to run and hike. Now, I live with aching pain in my hips to my heels. Walking is painful most of the time... I can't imagine putting on my running shoes again. I'm gaining weight like no one's business, and I'd like to do something about it. A swimming pool would be fabulous, but unfortunately, I don't have access to one.
1922386 tn?1322701233 It's better than nothing! My daughter just bought the Zumba for the Wii and loves it!
Avatar f tn ) Its better motivation as well :)... there is also Yoga things to do on the Wii and things!!
1401877 tn?1288107639 s like tennis and baseball and bicycling, etc. and the Wii Fit teaches you strength exercises, yoga, balance, etc. It also measures your body stats and follows your progress. You can do as light and minimal exercise as you want, in the air conditioning of your home and I have a couch to fall back on right next to me if I need it. I swear I'm not a sales person for the Wii but I honestly think that for people like us it's brilliant.
Avatar f tn them do yoga, we have done a bit of the yoga but made it into a fun game with her on the fit board rather than a chore and managing to have a laugh and a giggle while doing it. Poor daughter starting when she was 9!!
579258 tn?1250649343 I love the Wii Fit - you can set it up with your own trainer, etc and it lets you know whether or not you are doing the exercises correctly or not. The walking not only "fits" in to my job - but is required as I often have to "hoof" it back and forth across school campuses, some of which are a mile or more across, locating and solving various problems. I don't think my problem is lack of exercise - I must be eating wrong, so that's the next thing to work on.
1081509 tn?1261546519 Hi there! I am answering this with the expectation that your doctor has told you that exercise is okay for you. I also am on atenolol for tachycardia. I have been for 32 years. I started an exercise program with the Wii Active. My heart rate goes up very easily and after many years of the atenolol controlling it, I didn't like the feeling, even though it was SUPPOSED to get faster. It was something I had to get used to.
1151133 tn?1271666188 The dvd that comes with it (Wii Fit Plus) is so much fun! There are alot of different things to do snowball fight,skate boarding,hula hoop, yoga and kick boxing are just some.I checked out most of the exercises,tried some of them. I already have my fav. I personally find it to one of the best electronic items I have bought in along time. I say go for it!
