Wii workout game: golds cardio, EA active, or my fitness coach?
I just got a wii fit and have been using it to workout but am kinda sick of just the strength training and yoga. I want something that has more of a workout and cardio to lose some weight.
I’ve narrowed it down to 3 that had good reviews: gold’s gym cardio, EA sports active, and my fitness coach.
Does anyone have these games and tell me which they prefer? Do you use the wii fit board with any?
please help! ![]()
Brian- I appreciate your input, yes I’ve tried all the games on wii fit, I’m looking for a more solid workout instead of just playing mini games.
I think I may just go to blockbuster and rent each game then decide which I like the best.












































I own all three and ill tell you whats good about them
My Fitness Coach: you don’ use the balance board and it Designs a workout for you and provides a challenge. What i don’t like about this game is that it reminds me of workout DVDs since you don’t even have to do the workouts you can sit and watch and it thinks you are
Golds Gym: I liked it but there was just not alot to do in the game and i got bored of it within a week
EA Sports Active: This game is fun and also meets your exercising needs. Comes with a fitness band and a knee strap. The game has a very good progress meter and is very accurate with its workout results
So if i had to put them in order of best to worst i would say
1.EA Sports Active
2.My Fitness Coach
3.Golds gym:Cardio
I’ve done some research, and I’m buying my fitness coach soon. It sounds like that "game" is well suited to giving a good workout.
You mentioned the Wii Fit and it’s board. They say you use it, but the reviews said otherwise.
Question back to you, you mention the Yoga and strength training on Fit. Have you done any of the cardio games, like running, or hoola hoop, stepping on and off the board, or even the boxing thing? These are all fun "games" that are great cardio.
EA Active is the way to go. I have it and im a little sore from the great work out.
you should get ea active it is the best game for fitness on wii i was also researching it today and im getting the active one the cardio is also good but i heard sometimes the directions aren’t as easy to understand and the active has the 30 day challenge and you keep track of what you did that whole day like how long you slept how much water you drank etc…
Here’s a good site to look at:

Click on the link that says "Best Wii Exericse Games". You’ll see in-depth reviews of all the games you mentioned and more. For the record, the reviewer chose EA Sports Active over the other two.
I would recommend Ea sports active because it is a great workout and i like it much much better than wii fit. I had the same problem with wii fit- it was too boring than i switched and bought EA and it was an awesome decision. Im glad i bought it !
