It was Christmas day, and as all the gifts were being passed out there was one in particular that stuck out to me. It was abnormally big and on the top there was a sticker labeling the gift as our family's; I was pumped! Before I knew it, the wrapping paper was being ripped off this gift and there laid the most amazing thing ever... Wii Fit!
Ever since that fateful day my Wii sat untouched in my living room, longing for the attention of my busy family and I. About a couple of weeks ago, I was sitting on my couch and noticed it all alone, and I knew I had to get this thing-a-ma-gig going. Literally ten minutes later, my mom and I were setting up our accounts. My mom, of course, got bored of the game and decided to go back to her other daily tasks, so I took over and started playing.
There are so many things to do! You can do yoga, aerobics, strength training, balance games, and so much more! All the games have there different ways of helping you get "fit", and boy do they really work you. I decided to go to the aerobics games and play "super hula-hooping" the other day and by the time I was done, I was about to collapse on the floor! I know that I am really out of shape, but I never knew I would get kicked in the butt with this one little game. After that, I tried this dance step game, a punching game, and this one where you actually take a "jog". The aerobics really tired me out, but I kept up my workout! I went to yoga and strength training, and those were even harder. You have to focus on all these things at once, like your posture, what muscles you are using, how to breathe right' it all just makes you wanna fall over and die... but it is really good for you.
Before you can even play the little games, you have to do this body test. They go through all these little facts to help you understand everything, and then you have to take a balance test, give it your info, and then it measures you. It's actually kind of cool to see how healthy your body is and how fit you are. The game even gives you what age it thinks you are by all the tests it did on you, and it thought I was 17; perfect! I had to laugh when one of my friends, who is really big and buff, told me that the game thought he was 47.
After awhile, I got the hang of it all and now I'm practically using it like everyday. Who wouldn't want to get into shape by playing a simple, fun game that is produced with a simple click of a Wii control? Well I am for sure and absolutely positive that this game is the best thing ever. That is, until I get really tired of it; lets hope that doesn't happen soon!
