Wiiiiiii


Shortly after Christmas this year, Albert and I bought a Wii.  At the time, I think it was a bit of an impulse buy due to the fact that we were both bored over the Christmas holiday.  Coincidentally, my parents bought a Wii and the Wii fit + the balance board around the same time.  While I was visiting my parents in March, they encouraged me to try their Wii fit.  So, I did, and I loved it!  I immediately decided that I wanted one for myself.  My parents were nice enough to get me one for my birthday a couple of weeks ago, and we have had so much fun with it.  Albert and I have played it almost every single day.  (I even rearranged the living room yesterday in order to get the coffee table out of the way!)  Now, it's not necessarily a high intensity (heart pumping, breathing hard, etc.) work out, but many of the activities do provide your muscles with a good burn.  So, if you're looking for a fun activity - something to do other than just sitting on the couch staring at the TV - I highly recommend the Wii fit!  It's great for friendly competition as well, as Albert and I are constantly trying to beat each others high scores.  :)
