Re: Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Fit
Njgal - I used to go to the gym for different exercise classes e.g. aerobics and the amazing feeling after makes you a gym-addict! Excercise is like a powerful drug once you get into the routine and it makes you addicted to it because the body releases endorphins (happy-hormones) when we exercise. The endorphin rush makes you feel so much better, reduces stress, makes you feel fresher, happier etc. If I missed the gym for even two days, my body would actually ache for it! Lol.
Well the exact same effect of exercising on Wii has been happening. I bought Wii last year and use it all the time like a gym-addict! But it is the healthiest addiction possible! I have always been slim, but feel even smarter i.e. upper arms, stomach, thighs have tightened and are toned more since using Wii. But most of all you feel good after using it.
To get these results you have to start with slow warm-up exercises on Wii, then gradually start the next steps and continue until you break in sweat. Then stop, take a few mins to relax and do gentle exercises on Wii again as you did in the beginning until your breathing is back to normal. I stick with this and do it 4 times a week (exact same method as I used in gym) and it is a great workout for me. :)
