Never would I have thought that video games could 'supply a workout' until the Wii came out. Has anyone ever played these games? Unless you spend HOURS playing it, it's hardly a workout at all! And at $110 AN HOUR?!? that's ridiculous! Just go out and buy the stupid game yourself if you want a workout! I go to the gym to get an actual WORKOUT, not a lesson in gaming and controlling your Wii character better. We complain about how unfit we are, and how we need to get off the computer/gaming systems and start /real/ exercise, and yet here we are, going to gyms to make it seem like we're working out, but in reality, we're simply playing more games. <br>And a note to the trainer, it'd be helpful if you yourself were in better condition. The girl she's training is in better condition! <br>This is definetly a ridiculous way of getting a workout.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Katie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 6th 2008 7:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on New York Gym Offering Nintendo Wii Workouts for $110 Per Hour ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/08/05/new-york-gym-offering-nintendo-wii-workouts-for-110-per-hour/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/08/05/new-york-gym-offering-nintendo-wii-workouts-for-110-per-hour/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah, its the USA, not everyones in shape, and for some - a Wii Fit IS a workout, quit b!tching and be happy they aren't sitting on their sofa and eating McDonalds. The whole point of her remark as 'it doesn't feel like a workout' is not because it doesn't raise her heartrate or make her sweat, but because its entertaining as well. If you've ever played it, you would realize its set up for the UNfit, which slowly starts them out so they can build up endurance. Insult? my god, get a life. If someone wants to spend $110 for someone to be there and keep them going 'hard' in their terms, let them. It doesn't hurt you. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Get over it]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 6th 2008 8:49PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
