Last week was Comic Con here in San Diego, and the Konami booth reminded me that Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party (Wii) will be hitting the shelves in September! I reserved myself a copy a few days ago and I am quite excited to try out the Wii upper body functionality (for some reason they didn't have that part set up--just the pad.) I need to ( Read more... )

I was just wondering if there was anyone who lives in Pittsburgh and plays itg? I've noticed a severe lack of people playing itg in Pittsburgh and wanted to see if anyone was interested in playing sometime.

I have been INSANELY busy with work the last few weeks, so I've kinda fallen off the working out and eating well wagon :/ I have plans to start back up once things die down, but it's just not possible right now since I'm working 12 hours a day plus commuting :I just wish my workout routines weren't always this on again off again craziness that I ( Read more... )

So after 10 workouts, I just did my first physical challenge in Yourself! Fitness. I could do more squats, pushups and crunches, but I was wondering about the heart rate. My resting and active heart rates both went up. Is this just influenced by what you were doing previous to taking your heart rate, or are they supposed to go up as you do more ( Read more... )

I was trying to dance today, but my pad was so sticky that it kept coming with my feet when I moved them. I had to stop because of how much it was moving.  I tried cleaning it a couple of times with dawn, and that helps, but it still sticks after a few minutes of play.  Have other people had this problem?  How do you keep your pads clean?  Also, ( Read more... )

Hmmm... Recap of my exercise adventures for the past...I dunno:

- A lot of crunches. Agh. I need to take a break from them once in a while. My muscles in my stomach or whatever just are screaming in pain. But its definately a good pain!!
- Lots of jumping jacks and other smaller exercises
- Walk aerobics! ( Read more... )

40 crunches
120 leg ups
26 arm circle things

...can you tell I'm a real work-out junkie?  (J/k)

Now, recently, I've been trying to get away from the exercise bike. This poses a problem, as how am I going to gamercise, if you will, if I am unable to hold a DS and, oh, go on the rowing machine at the same time?

For such activities where it's a bit harder, I may be stretching it a bit, but I actually find game music to be helpful in keeping me ( Read more... )

Last night my husband got some friends over to play a bunch of DDR. I got my ass kicked! I was the only really overweight person there and my endurance was shot long before anyone else's was. D: I've noticed that it's a lot harder to play DDR as a heavy person than it was when I was thinner; despite the fact that I'm better at the game now than ( Read more... )
