WiiFit

Working for Precor, I try to take advantage of the perks that I have available to me. We have a pretty awesome free gym less than fifty yards from where I work.

I also maintain a fairly healthy diet, and am fairly conscious of my overall physical health.

That being said, I’m always looking for fun new ways to stay motivated. I have definite goals in mind with where I want to get to physically, and while I’m well on my way, I’m not there yet.

As such, I was frequenting IGN yesterday, and came across this blog about WiiFit.

I’ve owned a Wii since around Christmas time, and I’ve found it pretty fascinating. Some games employ the motion sensitive aspects of the machine to better use than others, but overall it’s a pretty unique experience.

It would be fun to see where this sort of thing goes in the future. Certainly the power of computers is processing data – and I think a more interactive approach to health that involves personalized data tracking of things like weight and overall health is a fun way to keep the user involved and motivated.

Perhaps I shall keep you updated as I go!
