I just wanted to share with everyone my experience with the EA Sports Active 2 game. I have it for the Playstation 3. It's tons of fun!!! Ok, that may be an exaggeration because it is still a workout but it's pretty fun and it's an awesome workout!!
With the PS3 you wear arm bands on both arms and a leg band and that's the way it tracks your workouts. My favorite (and sometimes not favorite) part is that you really can't cheat! Like if you are supposed to do 20 lunges, you have to do 20 lunges! It tracks your movements so it knows!! There is a 9 week program on the DVD and it starts out easy and goes progressively harder.
I've lost a few pounds already but can also really see a difference in my body - more muscle and getting slimmer.
I just wanted to share that I think it's a great way to lose weight and have fun! I bought it for $60 at Target a couple months ago, but I think it's down to $40 now (at least for the PS3).
Good luck and I hope that review helped someone! If you have more questions, just PM me!
