Chapter 4. Working Out with My Wii Fit Plus
In This Chapter
Discovering My Wii Fit Plus
Assessing icons
Examining the preset routines
Customizing routines
Reviewing Favorites
One of the criticisms of the original Wii Fit was that it did not offer any routines. The Wii Fit Plus developers address such criticism through My Wii Fit Plus. You can choose from a list of routines that are designed to help you achieve a certain goal, such as youth or health, or you can try your hand at designing your own routine. If you like elements of two different routines, Wii Fit Plus even lets you combine them; the options are virtually limitless. Certainly, having so many choices helps prevent boredom and keeps you engaged.
In this chapter, we review all that My Wii Fit Plus has to offer, including how to build your own routines and combine routines. We also provide a table of the preset routines for you to easily refer back to, and discuss some of the icons on the My Wii Fit Plus screen, such as the Calorie Check.
Starting My Wii Fit Plus
You can access My Wii Fit Plus from the Training Menu or by clicking on the door on the Calendar screen. The My Wii Fit Plus screen resembles a locker room, which is fitting considering that it serves as workout central when it comes to routines. You also encounter an old friend here, your virtual Balance Board. If you click on him, you can practice any of the ten available Balance Tests, provided you've done them before while taking a Body Test.
