Good Morning! It feels so good to sleep in. I could get used to this vacation thing. It has also given me time to enjoy my Christmas present from my dear husband and girls.
My family knows how much I enjoy using the Wii to supplement my workout routines. Since being on detox I have felt great and have really stepped up my routines. What intrigued me about Your Shape is that this workout is personalized to your fitness goals, detects your movements and corrects you if you are performing a move wrong, and is controller-free. So I set up the game and began moving.
The Review:
Pros:
*Setup was easy and fast. In less than 5 minutes I was beginning my routine.
*Different workout every time that I work out. The workouts are fun and really have kept my attention.
* Camera does not stop working, so if you do than the game will let you know to keep moving.
*The game incorporates your home fitness equipment into the workout. I use a step bench and hand weights. Both pieces of equipment make great additions to the workout.
Cons:
*I do not thing the game is worth the price that is being charged, although Amazon already has it on sale.
*The camera can be very finicky about your movements and keep correcting you with voice prompt. You also need to be in the right light to have the camera work.
Overall:
I think this product is great. I know there are many people who have given this product a very poor review but I have been patient and worked out the kinks. It has kept me motivated enough to workout everyday.
What is your favorite exercise routine?











I was thinking of adding that to my workout routine…
I just got Jil Jil’s wii game and so far I like it but I just have to get used to it.

Walking. I think its the best exercise and if you are outdoors- you dont know you are working out.
Mickey is my coach.
Hiking/walking outside. love, love, LOVE it! Except now, of course, in the freezing rain.

That sounds so neat!! Thanks for your honest review. I want to get a Wii when we move, and when we have more room. Also we are on the top floor right now and I don’t want to disturb anyone below us. I would definitely use thi!
