Nintendo Wii Fit is Healthy

New studies show that the Nintendo Wii can be a big help with increasing physical activity. Researchers say that since the Wii always requires at least some movement regardless of the Wii Fit or the Wii and requires some energy of the body, that it could help an individual maintain a healthy lifestyle. This is so because even bowling(little movement required) leads to using body energy. Though you can't successfully play games in small indoor places, all Wii Fit games follow basic principles to exercise programs; like having goals, and tracking those physical goals.
"I think there is a great potential to develop ways to promote physical activity through technology," said David Dzewaltowski, professor and head of the department of kinesiology at K-State and director of the university's Community Health Institute. This Wii Fit is also good to people of all ages especially useful for elders, because if it's too cold or too hot outside, the seniors can use this handy-system for their daily exercise!
