When it rains and I cannot walk my dog outside I stay inside and use my Nintendo Wii Fit Plus. I know it seems fake to those who do not own one. But seriously. Twenty minutes alone on Wii Fit will not do a whole lot but at least you got up. When you hit the 30 minute mark there's indication you've definitely have been working out. The variety is the most enjoyable part of the program as some of the games are silly fun and if you have pets you can add them to the game and they appear next to you in some workouts and its cuter than I'd like to admit.
I have not tried out any other workout software for the Wii, and don't think I will want to unless there's a better boxing game.

Great alternative!
It's not part of Wii Fit Plus but the Wii has MANY great workout-type games. I like the fencing & boxing ones, you quickly run out of gas. The baseball game that's part of Wii Sports is also great as it reminds me how much of a workout going to the batting cages used to be.

Having a dog was the best thing for me!
There was nothing that could motivate me more than 'that look' she'd lay on me when she wanted to go out and play. Wii Fit sounds like something I should look into now that she's gone. What are your favorite titles?
