I've always preferred running to weights though, chuck on my headphones to listen to a new podcast or LOUD music on full blast and get away from family/housemates/girlfriend for a bit where as the gym would annoy as there's always someone who doesn't know what they are doing hogging the machine I want to use plus I hate gyms in general.
Gyms are the worst. I really hope to avoid having to go to one because the nearest one to me is 20 miles away. The muscle gain just isn't a good enough replacement for the money to join a gym (local is $50 to join, then $25/month) AND gas money.
I wouldn't take the body test too seriously, because 1 little accident and you're 5 years older. The lowest is 20 if you are 20 or older(I think), so that doesn't really matter, either. It's basically a game that says your 20, just like brain age; not that I'm totally criticising it, anyway.

I have a generally dumb question (and this is the first time I've ever posted to a forum such as this), but I couldn't find an answer anywhere, and you all seem like friendly folk, so hopefully you can help I just got my Wii Fit U (had the Wii Fit ages ago, but didn't transfer the data). I haven't done a lot of the exercises yet, so I don't know if this happens on all of them, but the past 3 times that I've been doing the step aerobics, a big blue rectangle appears in the middle of the TV screen with a question mark in it. I can't figure out how to make it go away :-/ Does anyone know how to fix this?

The question mark is part of the "Advanced" mode for Steps. It hides some of the steps just before you should perform them, forcing you to memorize the step(s) a bit ahead. The "Beginner" mode is without question marks.
Ya. I didn't want to do the hidden step mode, either. Just go back to the one that shows you.
Also, for anyone who cares, I haven't met my Wii Fit goal in a while, but I'm not obese yet. Well, it says I'm obese, but I'm not, and I'm not sure if being obese is my goal... Gosh darn it Wii Fit U

I put in my weekly Wii Fit U Meter data, after finding a battery under the carpet to get it back in order. It says I went 67 miles, but I'm not sure if the battery running out has anything to do with it.

I so need to actually do this again. I'm like wow, I actually stay less stiff when I use this, my neck has been in knots on and off for a while and sometimes my lower back haha Thanks to work... but if I use my Wii Fit U it doesn't happen. I'm legit surprised. I never had Wii Fit, so this is my first extended time with having used it before.
ugh i prob gained weight, I've been eating too good recently, but I know my last goal was to gain because I was sooooo thin before so it'll be happy with me when I turn her back on.
I'm just waiting for batteries to charge, so that I can boot up Wii Fit U. I haven't done the body check in like a month. I might have to boot up Art Academy or something, one of these days.
EDIT: Also, it says I went 670 or something feet in altitude and I'm overweight now. I'm pretty sure the battery glitched it out, because it was around 3300 calories. 670 feet and 67 miles just really doesn't match up.
The wife and I carry our pedometers wherever we go and weigh every Saturday morning. We have done this, without fail, for over three years now! We've really benefited from this fun aspect to keeping fit and our continuing dedication has resulted in me losing 3.5 stone and my wife 2 stone.

Same here
I really like seeing what you did every day of the last week. And for hiking the WiiFit meter is just great.
So I have some new info. When I said I was burning 670 calories as a "lazy" goal, that was when I was exercising like crazy, but now I've realized that 550-600 is more average for maintaining my weight(with 777 being my latest high calorie burn day). 70 calories still makes the difference, because I would have to go out of my way to burn those calories, obviously, and sometimes that isn't going to happen.
Just an FYI for anyone who cares, and that means taking at least a 2 mile walk/running a couple laps and weight lifting every other day, including both on most of those days.
I just got to get better at the racket ball and beat my brother's score... please give me strength.

@Sticker: The game is timeless. Staying fit and getting enough exercises are always important topics. I am just having fun saving all my movement data for each day.
Not so much a game, more of a lifestyle supplement. Not only is it very good for promoting all-over control, flexibility etc with the blend of yoga, balance, aerobic and strength activities, the 'got to beat the high score' is, as Chandlero says, timeless. Wii Fit U is for life, not just for a couple of weeks gaming.
I decided to take on the plank challenge recently. Found it pretty straight-forward to work all the way to the point where I was just one star off maximum, but then the leap to full stars is far bigger than any of the other progression points, which caught me out first time, expecting it to finish way before it wanted to. Still beat the b*tch on my second attempt though. Wobbling like a b*st*rd, I was.
You guys had me at blood and semen.
What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?
