| | Customer Reviews: No warm up or warm down! (08 March 2010)Once you get into this game the moves are really great and I can feel my heart rate rising. However, there is no warm up or warm down. I completed an hour aerobics session and there was no stretching at all. As a result I couldn't walk for 3 days! I was in physcial pain just moving. It would be great if there was some stretching incorporated in the moves. Out of time (08 March 2010)I teach fitness and aerobics and think the Wii is a great way for people to get active. I have several games which I find do the trick on a slow day for me. My biggest problem with this system is the music and the moves don't add up. If you have any sense of rhythum, you'll find yourself out of step which makes it quite frustrating. Its also short lived and too low intensity, so you won't really get enough activity. You are better off going round the block for a cardio work out, or putting on any one of the celebrity workout DVDs if you prefer to stay indoors. Really makes a difference (05 March 2010)Today I completed my 40th workout with Maya, and I am not bored yet, and I can really feel the benefits, even though I only do the shortest workout (15 minutes) 5 times a week. There are lots of things to like about this game. You give feedback several times during each workout, so that the intensity can be adjusted to make sure you are working at the right level; the changes as you improve are subtle but still take it up a notch. The music is unobtrusive, so it doesn't drive you crazy after you've heard it a few times, and you get to choose different styles. You also get to choose different locations, which makes for a bit more variety. You choose a daily focus, for example upper body or cardio, or Maya will recommend a daily focus. Either way you get a balanced workout over the week. I really appreciate being able to do a complete balanced workout in only 15 minutes per session, it really helps with consistency, because no matter how rushed I am I can always say "it's only 15 minutes, just do it!" Of course you can choose longer workouts when/if you have more time available. Highly recommended. Good Exercise (05 March 2010)I enjoy exercising so this is a good game which helps me get fit and uses the wii. It is not a run in the park it is challenging and make you work up a sweat. highly recommended (03 March 2010)Having read the reviews from other people about my fitness coach, I thought I'd give it a go. I have lost nearly 8 stone in weight and thought it was time to get fit too. Maya is great, really keeping me on my toes. The workouts are easy to follow and have a tutorial option to give you a better idea of the moves.I would highly recommend giving My fitness coach a go. I like the fact that you just insert a disc and are ready to go rather than messing about plugging other gadgets into your Wii. |
