Wii Fit: "Hula Hoop Muscles"
Posted: Wednesday March 25th, 2009

I bought Taks a Wii Fit for her birthday. Curiosity got the better of me and after Taks had some time to play with it, I gave the thing a go. Now my freakin' calves hurt. Now despite the title of the comic, it was actually the jogging that made them owie I think. Though after an extended sessions of playing the hula hoop game you are distinctly aware that you have been playing a hula hoop game.
I also did the yoga stuff. Seems my balance is pretty good. But my ability to strike a tree pose is somewhat deficient.
So, a word of advice for those of you considering a Wii Fit purchase but live a somewhat sedentary lifestyle. Though the balance games look fun, they actually have the potential to make things hurt that you didn't really know you had.
