Advantages: Range of fitness regimes in the comfort of your own home

Disadvantages: Can be a little repetetive

Being a newby to Wii and wanting it purely for the fitness angle, i find My Fitness Coach as an excellent way to keep fit in the comfort of your own home. Set up a profile and measure yourself and you will open up a world of fun excercise that helps to shed those pounds and tone you up.

There are a variety of focuses, included Cardio, Upper Body, Core, Lower Body and flexibility and based on your fitness requirements, it guides you to the category it feels you should concentrate on for each workout. There is a choice of music to exercise to, from Dance and Latin to Hip Hop and 80's music, and a range of backgrounds for the workout, including a dojo which is my favourite, to urban rooftop and meditation garden. More of the music types and backgrounds open up as you progress.

The fitness calendar gives you the option to set the dates and amount of time you have available to exercise so you can control your own workout sessions. It also asks what equipment you have, and will incorporate the equipment into the workout.

After a number of sessions, it will then ask you to do a physical challenge,
including your resting pulse rate and then your rate after 2 minutes physical exersion. The programme also unlocks new moves. It can seem fairly monotonous but it does work. I have lost over 71bs in just over 6 weeks with this programme. The instructor will also ask you, after various exercises, if you are coping ok with it. If you reply that you couldn't keep up, then it does adjust the exercise programme for the next workout so you can keep up.

This was money well spent as it provides exercise the way i like it and i can pick and choose which part of the body i want to concentrate on. I would recommend My Fitness Coach to anyone who doesn't like the gym, and for people who do like it too, because it is a home workout that is fun.

Summary: All round good buy
