Well I must say I feel different about this game…I bought it due to the ads saying the workout is customized to your fitness and what you can do. Sounded great except I’m a 59 year old female…who has had both shoulders operated on…and during the acessment I couldn’t do any of the exercises that require you to push up from the floor. I thought ok they will skip those from my training. LOL Boy was I wrong…I really feel dupped on this one!

Had the game a few weeks now, and so far I’ve been going to the gym less and staying in the same kind of shape.

Pros : Really customizable, keeps you accountable and gives you competition to be motivated. Really good soundtrack that has a nice mix of good famous and lesser-known artists (some highlights include “Say Yeah” by Shapes of Cars, “Unstopabble” by Minutes Til Midnight” and “Under Control” by Rootbeer)

Cons: Nothing can totally replace the real gym experience and the peer pressure I feel to perform in front of real actual people. Keeps you in the house more.

So, no, it won’t replace a gym membership, but I think it’s a great supplement so far and it’s way easier to stay disciplined with this than going to the gym.

I just completed my sixth week under the “Get Stronger” option and can happily report that my physique has improved in almost every way. My arms are more toned and I’m really noticing some nice definition in my upper legs. However the game does require substantial space for some exercises and when the Kinect isn’t registering my movements during a third round of weight training I feel like showing the game just how strong I’ve gotten by throwing the tv out the window.

Interesting. I actually just purchased the game and can’t wait to test it out. I’m a NTC user so some of the moves on the game are similar to the app. I’m actually excited to see how I score and how my form looks.
