When the Bough Breaks

Since I wasn’t able to work hard today with my workouts (I did a little bit and it was not good) I thought I would share my new buys. My first buy was new workout gloves. The straps on the resistance bands have been digging into my hands since I jury rigged the new set. I am pretty sure it is because it is much tighter than the original bands. Hopefully these new gloves work to stop this. If anything they sure do look really cool. I feel like a street fighter or something with them. I will update on how they work.

The other thing that I purchased was the new Wii Fit Plus. It is an add-on for the Wii Fit. While I am a bigger fan of Active than I am with Fit I decided to give this a try. I only played it a little bit tonight. I will have a more in-depth analysis of the game another night. Some of the things I looked at include a number of additional activities such as Kung Fu, Juggling, Golf, and some strange counting game. There is now a calorie counter in the program. You can now make a custom workout similar to what Active has. The other new thing that I find hilarious addition is being able to add your pet/child as a participant. You actually weigh your pet and it will track their weight day to day. It also gives them tips on health. I added Oscar to it and weighed him. I would reveal his weight, but I don’t think he would like that. It also gave him some grooming advice. It was really just to have me brush him. There are a lot of other features that I will have to write about in a later post.

There you have two of my buys. Again I will have a more detail report on how the Fit Plus is working out. I may give it a couple days to really get into it. Stay tuned for that and much more.

Have a happy and healthy one.
