From children to senior citizens, I am talking to more people who are using video gaming systems as a part of their workout routine. Many of my friend are using Nintendo’s Wii’s fitness games and accessories to make exercising fun. In fact today, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Health Games Research national program, announced it has awarded $2 Million in grants first round of financing to study and research how playing video games can impact your health will eventually give us scientific evidence showing exactly how video games actually effect us.
A Wii or similar video gaming systems, may be exactly what one may need to get their exercise on!
I currently own an Nintendo Wii fit and I can honestly say you get an awesome workout.
My favorite workout is the holla hooping. I feel my abs being pushed to the limit, plus I sweat like crazy.
I’ve already lost 3.5 pds using it!
