Description
EA Sports Active features a wide variety of interactive activities combined into a circuit that target both the upper and lower body as well as cardio. Developed in collaboration with fitness experts, including Bob Greene -- renowned exercise physiologist, author and Oprah's personal trainer -- EA Sports Active is a simple, fun and cost-effective way to achieve a healthy lifestyle. Suitable for the whole family, though designed specifically for women seeking an entertaining way to work out, EA Sports Active features a wide variety of interactive activities combined into a circuit that target both the upper and lower body as well as cardio, and supports two players to allow family or friends to get fit together. The game provides a new level of motivation with on-screen, real-time feedback on your workout such as calories burned, while also allowing you to adjust intensity levels. The package includes two specially-designed leg straps that hold the Wii's Nunchuk controller to track lower body movements, as well as a resistance band to support a number of upper body strength training exercises. Players can run through the 30 Day Challenge, mode, where each circuit feels different and increases in intensity as fitness levels improve. Users can also create their own custom workouts that vary in activity, duration and intensity, and the Wii Balance Board will add functionality to many exercises.

We just purchased the EA Sports Active today, along with the additional accessory pack, so that both my husband and I can do this together.
We are very impressed with the different workouts they have to offer. It's a nice change of pace, to keep us doing different workouts.
If you are looking for a good workout in your home, this is a must have.

Let me start off by saying there are not enough hours in a day! Full time new mom, and wife, but only work and go to college part time, and every second counts. I always find my self too busy, and have no motivation to work out and get back into shape. But when I herd of EA Active, i did my research and its everything I expected and more! I love how many work outs there are and how you can customize your own if you want. Also i love the motivation! The personal trainer gives you lots of feed back and helps you though the work out. Even if your feeling lazy, you can play sports all day, like volley ball, base ball, or even dance. I RECOMMEND THIS TO ANY ONE! Families, out of shaper's, in shaper's, elders... any one. Hope this helps, and enjoy!

I bought this 2 days ago and I am so happy with it so far. It is a great customized workout that really made me sweat. The directions are simple and the "personal trainer" is motivating. I already have Wii Fit and like this much better. It is definitely worth the money.

I have the Wii Fit and love it but the EA Sports Active is definitely a serious workout. You will break a sweat and I love the custom workout feature. This is worth every penny and I encourage you to purchase this one, you will not be sorry.

Best Wii Fitness Game by far!!

I purchased this game on Day 1. I started the 30 day challenge on yesterday, and boy oh boy, it was a GREAT workout. When the sweat burns your eyes you know you have worked out. LOL..
What I like about this game is that there is so much variety. You go from one routine to the next without delay. Except for when you first use it, every routine has a how to video. Once you get past the first time, there is no video. It also uses the Wii Balance board for the inline skating and kick boking, which I love.. And the graphics are amazing. It draws you into the activity.
Also, if you do the activities lazy it calls you on it.
I used to go to the gym for mainly cardio. I have since canceled my gym membership, as this and other Wii fitness games (My Fitness Coach, and Gold's Gym Cardio) have you working out as if you are in one of the other classes. I have made this part of my morning workout routine.
If anyone is looking for a REAL workout, this is it. I highly recommend it. This is a winner!!

My boyfriend and I bought the Wii, which has the best games, then he came home with the Fit, which is good, then a week later came home with My Fitness Coach, which is a personal trainer, I thought this was the best kept secret. Then the surprise of EA Sports was sitting on the table when I came home from work. I had to quit Crunch gym because of a new job and not enough time, after going through the EA Sports the first session I was HOOKed. This is better then going to the gym and really alot of fun!!!!

I just bought this yesterday, popped it in and does it ever work you out!! My thighs and butt are so sore from inline skating, but it was fun!! I started the 30 day challenge and can't wait to see what my results will be. There are so many different activities I know I won't get bored, and yes, the trainer is very encouraging, it makes me feel good, even if it just a computer telling me I did awesome..LOL.

this game is amazing. i never have time for the gym because of having 2 kids and no money, so i figured i would try this. wow! you totally get a full work out with this and its a game. i never thought that was possible until i tried this. this is deffinitly worth buying then wasting your money at a gym, especially when you can work out at home without people staring at you. the other thing i love about the game is that it keeps track of your progress, so thats a plus that you dont have to keep a book and write things down everyday. GREAT GAME!!!
