Fitness: Fun Getting Fit
Posted January 14, 2007 7:46 AM
We're fit when we're young because we play all the time. Basketball, football, baseball, going crazy at the school dance were all part of our everyday lives, so we could eat anything we wanted and never gained an ounce because we burned it all up. We never even had to think about things like fitness, calorie counting and working out. Somewhere between 32 and 36 years-old reality hit like a brick sandwich and our weight ballooned when we were asleep. Most of us try to fit in regular exercise, but between raising children, going to work, and owning a home, something has gotta give. It's going to be our exercise regimen every single time.

On top of not having the extra two hours a day to get to the gym, workout and then drive home, the workouts tend to bore us after a while. Enough with the history. We have the perfect gift for the fitness seeking man. How about if I were to say you would never have the same workout twice, have fun every single time you engaged in this activity, and never had to put on a pair of cross trainers or any kind of sneakers for that matter? Intrigued? I have two words for you...Nintendo Wii. Having played a quick round of tennis and boxing this morning from the comfort of my living room, I worked up more of a sweat battling it out with the computer than I ever get on forty five minutes of full incline on the treadmill. Gym memberships are expensive, and we rarely go once we throw down the bread. The Wii will always be there for you, and even the lady of the household will support your gaming addiction once she sees that horrendous gut you've been growing start to get down to a more manageable size. In a perfect world everyone will be playing the Wii at home and you all will live long, happy, healthy lives.
