Well it's not Wii Sports Boxing :DOh, I thought you had to move the Wiimote and nunchuks... never tried to move myself *facepalm*
Ok, gonna try this tomorrow morning! Just unlocked Super Advanced today... wonder what it's like.
I finally made it to the top of the advanced wall in wall climbing! Those alternating handholds really tripped me up. Woohoo!
That one actually makes me start to sweat a little, hah. I'm trying to make it in good time to get 4 stars. I make good pace on the 2nd half until I get stuck because I try to reach for a hold thats juuuuuuust out of reach and have to restOriginally Posted by maxcriden

So I downloaded the free trial and started up my routine today. I haven't used the original Wii Fit for a few months since my Wii decided to die on me (still trying to see if I can repair it myself - the power on that thing is all kinds of jacked up).
Is the right place to keep my progress updated to share with you folks? I would really like to compare routines with others and see how I'm doing. I'll be buying a meter this weekend and hopefully that will motivate me even further to walk more and run often.
I'll post a screenshot of my chubby Mii tomorrow.
My goal is 22lbs over the next 6 months.

Come to think of it, I'm probably due to weigh in and see if I've met my goal or not. A month ago I set a goal of wanting to lose 3 lbs. I'm at that point where losses are nearly impossible to spot from an appearance standpoint that the only way to know for sure is to get onto a scale. Slowly chipping away on the flab around my waist. It's goin' down, but it's not quite gone yet.
Yes! I feel like this one is more effort than a lot of the other games in the Balance category. I often seem to mis-time the alternating holds so they disappear right when I need them. It's pretty tricky at points. My record is 4:30ish now, as of yesterday, down from 7:00ish the day before. That feels pretty good and like you said you can work up a sweat if you really get into it. Like most Wii Fit games it really comes down to what you put into it.Originally Posted by ActStriker

BTW, are any other NAers in the GAF gym still using it regularly? I only ever see Jody in there anymore, but I'm not sure if my Miiverse/Gym functionality is working properly... (I'm typically on at 4:30 PM or so EST and I used to see lots of fellow GAFers in there....)
I try and update wii u fit with my Fit meter every day around 5:00PM Central Time, so I am on for 10-15 mins everyday. My goal is, 3-4 times a week to work out with the training to go along with my weekly walking and stairs at work routine. I am trying to gain weight and build muscle with my workouts using it.Originally Posted by maxcriden

Wiifit U with meter and balance board £84.99 from Amazon!

I got a pre-owned balance board for £13 and a separate meter so with the trial download it came to £32.99. If you already have the board or can get hold of second hand one it will be lots cheaper.Originally Posted by aygomyownroad

Okay, lads! I joined the N.A. Gym and did my first ever Wii Fit U exercise session! I still haven't received my Fit Meter yet, but should tomorrow!
I had a good time burning about 180 calories using the Step class, Pushups and Planks, free run, and a few others I'm not terribly familiar with the names of.
Overall I'm quite happy with it so far! The community gyms are a very neat feature but am I correct in seeing that there's only 3 members in the N.A. gym? Is this more of a European thing?

Question: How do you post screenshots of this game on Miiverse?
No matter what there's way to do this. Do I have to take pictures through the album mode?

I'm only weighing in once a week now. I know the game doesn't like it, but daily changes are just too wild to be of any use. The completist part of me hates not having foot stamps all over the calender, but ah well.
Weekly changes are wild too. The variance doesn't go away just because you're sampling less often.I'm only weighing in once a week now.

I sample daily and then plot a weighted moving average with The Hacker's Diet Online. Shame that Nintendo never figured that one out; it would help them be less annoying with "oh God you gained 2 pounds, justify yourself you weight-gaining scum!"
Is there any way to finesse the weight that the Balance Board lists me as? My home scale shows me as 172 lbs naked and the Board shows me at 167. I'd love to bump it up to 172 since I believe that to be more accurate.
There's a lot of options and I feel I'm missing this one somewhere.

Are you on a soft carpet or anything? Because as far as I know, the board was shown to be pretty accurate.Originally Posted by Horseticuffs

I am, but the balance board has feet on it. Now, this is a preowned board so I don't know if it , by default, has feet but I've ordered the feet extenders as well just in case and so that should help.Are you on a soft carpet or anything? Because as far as I know, the board was shown to be pretty accurate.
I was thinking that perhaps, since it had feet on it already, that I'd wasted money on the extenders. Are you saying that the extenders go ONTO the feet that are already on the board?
I'm sorry for the silly questions but I'm very new at all this and am not used to using a console this way!
