My Wii Fit Challenge

[nordlead]

Day 10,11,12,13,14 (day 15 is tomorrow, but it is a rest day)
lb lost total: 4

So I'm half way into my EA Sports Active 30-Day Challenge, and I've lost 4lb even as of waking up this morning which is perfect. This was accomplished by the combination of exercising on medium intensity (with increased resistance band) and eating ~2000 calories every day. At this pace I should meet my goal of getting down to 180 in ~12 weeks which would land me on Aug 29th. If I can meet this goal I will be very happy.

Overall, I'd rate the first half of the 30-day challenge as a good exercise routine. Not the best in the world, but hey if it can get you to exercise and be conscious of your health it is totally worth it. Overall it does an excellent job with your legs, but it does under-exercise your arms and upper body. Increasing the resistance bands like I did helps, but my arms never burn like my legs do. The running in place is ok. For a non-runner like me it is long enough to get my heart going for a minute, but not so long that I give up from being too tired which is good. Balance board support has been sparse, but part of that is my fault as I didn't realize that if it wants to do Balance Board exercises and the board is off it will automatically switch out the choices. So make sure your Balance Board is on before approving the list of exercises.
