Weight Loss: Wii Fitness 11 December, 2007 at 3:41 pm
So, last weekend I clocked in at 221.6 … still … after over a year … two?
Obviuosly I SUCK at dieting (note: i am also, apparently, infinitely hungry, of late, which doesn’t help that’s for sure). I also suck at exercise (because lets face it, after 10 hours out of the house, min, for work, do i want to (a) go home and take K for a walk, (b) go home and play xbox while des climbs on me, or (c) go to the gym for another two hours?)
Last week I found a link off of Lifehacker: Wii Sports Fitness
The link lists the sports and general calorie burn.
I’ve been doing this for a week, half an hour each night, and Sunday I was at 219.4!!! WOO! Yeah, OK, so that’s within the normal variance range on my weight (217-224), so maybe I just had a light dinner or whatever.
Unfortunately, I’m finding that I don’t really move that much playing tennis, just swing my arm. Baseball is actually more trying on me, since I have to scrunch down a bit to hit the ball really. But a couple best of 5′s in tennis (which tend to go all five games, really) and some batting practice baseball (which eliminates that whole “watching” thing the site complains of) and I do the WiiFit Age test thingie.
Last week: 28 starting (!!!), 32, 79, 48, 32, 28, 42
The 79 was because I suck at the “hit the gloves” boxing test, and got fed up and just threw punches. 25 hits. 27 “misses” where I punched the trainer instead. Including at least 2 uppercuts to his genitals. apparently that was bad :o
