In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy shares their favorite Wii fitness tips. Using the Wii for fitness is definitely possible. It is especially good for moving totally sedentary kids and adults to a more active lifestyle. Plus it gets the whiole family involved with fitness so what could be wrong with that. While you are not going to get the same workout and intensity you would from a spin class at you gym there are several Wii games that can get your heart rate up and give you a pretty good workout. Some fun Wii games that are worth checking out are: Wii Sports Boxing; Wii Dance Town; Wii Island Run and Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2010. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.

Weight Loss

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy share some ways to burn some Thanksgiving Day calories. Start the morning off speed cleaning your home. Cleaning your house at a fast pace with holiday music blaring is a great way to burn lots of calories and get a clean home. Volunteer to feed the homeless. Putting food on plates doesn’t seem like it burns a lot of calories but feeding the homeless requires a lot more than that. Someone has to lift the boxes of food and move them to the tables – it might as well be you. Run a charity road race before the big meal. And if all else fails play a big family football game after you eat. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
