My bf tried working out with me today, he is considerably bigger so he only worked out for 40 minutes but got quite a bit more out of the exercises, he worked up a sweat much faster then me and burned 318 calories which was more then I burned, even though I worked out for 25 minutes longer.
His favorite ones were the soccer heading, running, and boxing.
He liked the activities that were actually games better, though we didn't put a straight workout routine together for him this time.
We ended up having a soccer/boxing war sadly he beat me in both, but I came pretty close in the boxing.
Hopefully I will start showing more weight loss soon, though I do feel more defined

Day 2
Day 2
Weight: 154
Height: 5'8
BMI: 23.4
Workout time: 1 hour 5 min
Custom Routine Exercises:
Sun salutation
Palm tree
Downward Dog
Torso twists
Chair
Push up and side plank
Jackknife
Lunge
Rowing Squat
Sideways Leg Lift
Plank
Cobra
Arm and leg lift
Downward Facing dog
Deep Breathing
Aerobic Exercises:
Hula Hoop
Super Hula Hoop
Free Step for 30 mins (altered for height with my mats)
I didn't stick to alternating arms and legs because there really aren't that many arm exercises that just work out arms. I really enjoyed my work out today. My favorite strength move is definitely the arm and leg lift , the lunges, and the rowing squat ( which I do with hand weights)
One thing I wish the wii fit plus included was a really good warm up and cool down with just stretches and maybe some jumping jacks to follow along with. I know you can obviously do this yourself, but not everyone will realize they should and may get injured.
Once again, I love the free step!
Let you know how I feel tomorrow.

Day 1
Day 1
Wii fit age: 34
Weight: 155
Height: 5'8
BMI: 23.6
Workout time: 1 hour 6 min
Actual time on wii: 1 hour 20 mins
Yesterday was my first real day with the wii fit plus. I had all ready created a profile after I had been dieting and exercising for a bit, but on Christmas morning before my Christmas and new years binge. When I signed on my wii promptly scolded me for not being there for ten days, weighed me, told me I had gained 4 pounds and asked me what could have possibly made me gain so much weight. I picked the ate too much option, and began my journey.
I started off with a balance test, let me just say I am not very well balanced, and the fact that it just throws you into these balance games with no real idea what you are doing doesn't help. Either way, the wii told me that I probably tripped a lot when I walked.
So far, I am not overly encouraged haha!
Once I was allowed to go into training mode I went to the locker room, and tried out the option for creating a seamless workout so I didnt have to click back to the menu every time. I picked 20 minutes of strength and yoga exercises, and started. One thing I kept putting down my wii remote because it would get in the way and then I would realize I needed to click the next button or something. I also hated that you had to hold the wii remote while doing certain exercises because I feel it got in the way of my form.
But all together the workout was pretty good. I did work up a bit of a sweat, even though I didnt find it too hard.
After I finished my list of exercises I went into the aerobics section and did the hula hoops game, which I really love, and makes me feel like I'm working my abs tons. I found it really fun, and worked up a sweat. I also did the boxing game, which I had tried previously and had unlocked the expert version of, I also really like the boxing game, it doesn't get my heart racing unless I put a lot of power behind my punches, so I really do and it makes it that much better.
For the rest of my workout I did the free workouts, I started with 10 minutes of free stepping and watched tv while doing it. After your done it vibrates and then you go back to the screen and it tells you how many steps you have done, I did 815. I decided that I really liked the option to watch tv and workout, but the stepping wasn't doing much because the wii board is so low to the ground.
I grabbed a bunch of mats I had laying around from when we had a home exercise gym and stacked them till they were almost a foot high and put my wii board on top. I did another 20 minute free step this way, and it worked alot better. 1706 steps this time.
For my last ten minutes of my wii workout I did the free run, tucked the wii remote into my pants and just ran as much as I could. That really tired me out.
Later in the day I decided that the jackknife sit ups I did during the strength and yoga segment weren't enough for me so I did 100 crunches while holding my 3 pound hand weights in each hand.
