EA Sports Active Looks Like a Winner

EA Sports Active looks like a winner. Out of 78 votes it has a review rate of 4 1/2 out of 5. That is pretty good. I prefer to see what the reviews are going to before I actually buy it.
I actually used Wii Fit yesterday. Wii Fit informed me that it had been 17 days since I had used Wii
Fit. I have been using Gold's Gym Cardio Workout and riding my bike
I wrote an article about Breyers Low Fat Ice Cream 110 calories per 1/2 cup. This is kinda nice. I can have a little ice cream without worrying about chalking up the calories. Heap on lots of fruit and you have a very nice dessert.

I Have Been Doing My Fitness on Schedule.

I have been working out regularily. I have not missed any work out days. I am looking forward to the spring. I will be can not wait till I get my bicycle. I will be working that into the routine, because I love being outdoors.
I have found that Wii Sports has a training aspect to their game. I have been boxing and then I will switch over to this boxing training to finish off my workout. It is a very nice way to finish off my boxing routine. I will do this for about 45 minutes - it works up a very nice sweat!

I have been continuing with my Slim-fast Optima Ready To Drink, French Vanilla, 11-Ounce Cans . I still have to weigh myself. I have not been very good at weighing myself on a regular basis.

This week I will be working on Wii Fit routine with the strength routines. I will start out with three reps per exercise, just to see how long it takes me to complete the routines. I want to see if I will be able to do them all within 45 minutes.

I Will Be Trying Slim Fast To Help Lose Weight

I will be using Slim-fast Optima Ready To Drink, French Vanilla, 11-Ounce Cans to help with my weight loss, and to see what I actually think about Slim-fast Optima Ready To Drink, French Vanilla. It is basically a meal substitute. I also use the Slim-Fast Optima Meal Bar, Chocolate Cookie Dough, 1.97-Ounce Bars for snacks.

The Slim-fast Optima Ready To Drink, French Vanilla really help to curb your appetite, which has plagued me during diets. You always feel hungry, but with the Slim Fast there might be brief periods of hunger, it seems to curb the hunger. I have only been using it for a couple of days right now, so I will give you a better Idea later.

There will be lots of exercise games coming out for the Nintendo Wii over the next couple of months. I am really looking forward to it.

I have decided to up my exercise routine over the next few months. I want to do seven days a week, because I would like to possibly run marathons this year.

People are Serious about Losing Weight!

Wii Fit sold over 770,000 units in January 2009. No other video game even came close to this number. Why so many sales in one month? I believe that people want to get fit. People want to look and feel good. Even my sister picked up a Nintendo Wii Console with Wii Fit Bundle. She has been overweight most of her life, but her body is starting to make some weird sounds, she thought it was time to lose a little weight.

Was I little sick for the last three days. Spent most of my time in bed. I got up for short periods, just to let people in the house that I was still in the land of the living.

I have also been looking at some energy drinks. I work most of my time at the computer, but I feel a little tired as the night creeps up on me. I took some 5-Hour Energy drink. Boy, did I feel exhilarated. Great stuff

So, today was the first workout in three days. I managed to finish it with no mishap.

I am working on a routine for the Wii Fit Strength section. I used to weight lift and I am very familiar with sets. I want to work on a seven day routine for the just Wii Fit. Most of the comments that I have read about Wii Fit is what kind of exercise rountine to follow. You can not use Wii Fit for circuit training, ie for boxing, it takes too long to go from one exercise to the other it breaks up the aerobics routine. You would have to do 3 to 6 sets of each exercise with the least amount of break in between sets, say 30 to 60 seconds between set. That tires out the muscles fast, as well as the person. It is also the best way to burn the calories.

I Am Back. Sorry, I Have Been So Busy to Blog

I have only lost a day or two in exercising. We still have lots of snow out there, it is so hard to get outside and enjoy the outdoor life. I am still continuing my days of exercise, with the Nintendo Wii. Active Life Outdoor Challenge is actually giving me the tougher workout. I like using it at the end of my three day workout, I feel like I deserve the day off. Within the week, I want to put up videos about my workout routine.

I am actually starting to look at my diet. I have been hit by news about my sister's illness,and now my father is sick. We do not live for ever, and I have always believed that out diet is important. I have even gone on a 140 day juice fast, where I ran 2 miles every other day. Our diet can make our health or it can break it. My sister's and father's health have shown me how volunerable we are if we do not take care of our health, and this includes our diet.

So, watch out for my videos over the next few weeks.

Lots of Exercising and Burning Calories.

I used the Wii Fit 5-in-1 Bundle, Active Life Outdoor Challenge and Wii Sports - Boxing. I also spent some time on Shaun White Snowboarding Road Trip, I love playing this game, especially with the balance board. I wish that snowboarding was around when I was a kid, I would have loved it. Actually, I am getting jealous because the kids have all the fun.

It is so funny, that I was never into playing games, until the Nintendo Wii, now I put in 1 1/2 to 2 hours a day, playing video games. It has cut into my TV watching, but what the heck, it is a lot more fun than watching TV. It is also nice to be able to do some exercising and play some wholesome sports games instead of watching TV. If you are interested in checking out some of my favorite sports games go to Top Ten Sports Games for the Nintendo Wii.

Remember if you are a work at home mom or dad, the exercise chair is a feasible alternative to the office chair. Check it out at my website at Throw away the Office Chair. Check it out. I have never felt so much better since I changed over to the exercise ball.
