Wii Fit

With exercises that focus on helping you to improve balance and posture, change your Body Mass Index (BMI), or simply relax, the Nintendo Wii Fit uses the latest technology to assist you in leading a healthier lifestyle. What's it really all about though?



The Wii Fit uses your height, date of birth, and weight to work out your BMI, against which you're categorised as either underweight, ideal, overweight, or obese. As an aside, for some reason Wii Fit uses imperial units (feet, inches, stone) rather than metric units (metres and kilograms) in the UK only, not too sure why.

It uses Body Mass Index as a primary measure of fitness, and it tracks BMI for the whole family and then uses a couple of key metrics to plot your progress. Also, it uses graphs and charts to keep track of daily activity and even lets users input data from non Wii Fit exercise. Players can set personal goals for reducing their weight and BMI.

This superb piece of equipment uses a wireless Balance Board that contains pressure sensors to detect the gamer's movements during games of Hopscotch, Ski-jumping or even Chase the Doughnut. You can see that the name of the game here is fun, fun, fun.

This peripheral, the Balance Board can tell how your weight is distributed when you stand on it, and most of Wii Fit's exercises require you to stand on the board using fun moves like the Hula Hoop to build a great body. It transforms the way you think about staying in shape by letting you control more than 40 fun exercises and games just by moving your own body.

Yes, the Nintendo Wii Fit uses that concept of fun and makes working out a pleasurable experience, and that ladies and gentlemen, is an awesome concept.
