Additions to my Wii
I was lucky enough to own a Wii of my own.
My Christmas addition to the Wii Kit was a Wii Fit Balance board.
The brilliant thing about this piece of kit is that you can exercise without knowing it! In best fashion you can be a bit more active than being a coach potato and you don’t even have to step outdoors – which is all the more welcome in these cold winter days.
It has been a huge source of amusement and entertainment – and let’s be honest – there’s pretty poor competition from live telly right now.
Now I know it’s also possible to fool yourself into thinking that you’re doing something good… 45 minutes playing slalom ski doesn’t eliminate my need for healthy eating and regular aerobic exercise. But the Wii can be a source of real health benefits.
Jodie Lawton has created the Wii Health Zone membership site that it a great guide to getting best benefits out of this investment.
Having fun can really be good for you!
