My Blog. Teresa Cooper. Wii - fit - my review

11th Oct 2008 | in

As some one who gets very little excersise I decided to get a Wii. What a brilliant game if I can call it that. This is much more than a game and playing Wii fit feels like your really playing the sport. I had a great time playing tennis as my daughter watched on in amusement. You need alot of room for this though and I strongly suggest you make sure everything is out of the way including your chilldren if you have any. My daughter was unfortunatly clonked on the head as I done a fantastic back hander, furtunatly her head getting in the way didn’t ruin my score. I have a dodgy right arm and hand which was tested to the max as the consol flew out of my hand more than once and knocked a few things off the sides. This takes alot of mental control and I almost gave myself a heart attack trying to do the jogging programme. It wanted me to keep up with the other joggers and I have to confess this was not my strong point so if your unfit like me I suggest you strap a bottle of water around your neck and go for EASY.

I then tried my hand at the hoola hooping. I always considered myself to be fairly flexible but this was not the case when swivveling and diving to catch the make believe hoops. I can swivvel hips but the top half wasn’t having any of it.

I tried a little bit of Pirates of the Carribean and what a great way to get rid of that stress or anger by having a sword fight with a cartoon as you hunt for something. I have no idea what I was hunting for but hunt is what I done and all I found was a beefed up sumo wrestler who gave me a bit of a hiding.

Then came the best one of all. The maracas. This is a fantastic game come dance and is great for strengthening your arms and so much fun. It has been great doing this with my daughter as we both like dancing and fab for any mother and daughter to do together.

People with disabilites may enjoy some of the programmes as they are very gentle whilst having some fun along the way. Naturally this depends on your disability and always ask your doctor for advice. If you are on medication that makes you drousy do not attempt Wii even on easy and don’t even try it if your drunk.

I have been unwell and suffering from arthritis so everything I have done has been on easy and I am very proud to say I lasted 8 minutes total grin

  • On 14th Oct 2008 at 08:06 PM Teresa said...

    Thats probably because I was out of my head and thought the devil was after me. Gosh I even turned to my bible not that it helped me much although it might come in use now (bonks you on the head with it) x lol

  • On 14th Oct 2008 at 08:09 PM Jules said...

    Thats bible bashing and you are not alloud to do that!  You are just trying to make me feel sorry for you now. x

  • On 14th Oct 2008 at 08:10 PM Teresa said...

    See, KH education going on there. Is that ALLOUD or ALLOWED ?????

    Anyway you led me astray lol and no allowed doesnt look better written as aloud with one L lol itscause your not blonde lol

  • On 14th Oct 2008 at 08:13 PM Teresa said...

    You should go back to morse code lol at least I could understand that better lol

  • On 14th Oct 2008 at 08:15 PM Jules said...

    I don’t like to use the word allowed as “not allowed” was used far too often at KH!!!!  And when I think of you I think of loud for some reason.  Think back (if you can) are you sure it was me that led you astray!!!!!!! x

  • On 14th Oct 2008 at 08:19 PM Teresa said...

    ROFL as i just almost fell off my chair, come again lol I shall take that as a compliment because I know you say it with love. It was in your files that you was leading me astray lol I dont want to repeat myself here but bad girl lol xxx

  • On 14th Oct 2008 at 08:22 PM Jules said...

    Lol, I think you are confused (maybe the drugs) as I only ever got into trouble defending you.  I even had to leave the art room (with you inside)  As I knew that, that time you were really going to get me into big trouble!!!!! Remember the riot! The police??????? lol x
