The Wii Sports Experiment

For anyone trying to find a fun way to get/stay in shape, this is encouraging. “Six weeks ago, I began what has become a huge obsession of mine. It is called the “Wii Sports Experiment” I outlined a 6 week game plan for myself, the idea being that I would continue ALL normal activity and eating habits, and simply add 30 minutes of Wii Sports to my day. For the past month and a half, I’ve stuck to these guidelines very strictly.” The condensed version is that he lost 9 pounds and 2% of his body fat by playing the games, and he plans to stay on it even though the experiment is over. This confirms what I have heard from friends who’ve played Wii; you can get a workout from it. While I always knew I would someday soon buy a Wii as the step up from our beloved, purple Gamecube, now I have a date, next month for my birthday. That we can play all the games that I, my wife and the kiddos ~~like~~ love is just gravy as we transition over to the new Wii games. Who knows, perhaps I’ll try out the 6 week plan myself.

No kidding, plus I'll bet Nintendo will focus on this more in upcoming releases, I'll be surprised if they don't start doing studies like this for their own data. Who knows, Nintendo Mario's Workout may be putting gyms out of business soon!
