Finally, a workout which works around me!

Hi there, My name is Helen and I'm a 31 year old with a very busy life, mainly thanks to a job that tends to take over everything else!

I have to work long hours, often putting in lots of overtime. These late nights in the office result in little time for me to exercise or go to the gym, I do try to go when I can but its always so hard when I dont have much time. It's not like you can get in and out in an hour because, by the time I've showered, got changed, done my make up etc... I've spent at least a couple of hours there and that just does not work for me when I need to get back to the office. After work I am so tired that I usually can't be bothered to go, even though I know that a bit more exercise will probably help give me some extra needed energy! Financially there is no point wasting my money on a monthly gym fee when I only go there maybe five times a month, so the exercise that I do get is from going for the odd run every now and then - but that's about it.

So I thought I'd try the Wii Fit Plus, I can do it when I get home - whatever time of day that may be - and hopefully it'll help with my aim of getting fit and staying in shape. 

I set the Wii Fit up and managed to get my BMI, had a play around with what activities are available and was pleasantly surprised by everything that it has to offer. The first run I did managed to bring on quite a sweat so I was impressed but also realised I was more unfit than I thought! I'm looking forward to trying out more of the activities like the Hulu Hooping which looks like good fun, and the Yoga which I am hoping will stretch me out and keep me relaxed from my hard day at the office.

Fingers crossed!
