• The top-selling "Wii Fit" gets players off the couch and in motion to burn those extra calories. Making use of the balance board peripheral, "Wii Fit" includes a variety of exercises, from yoga to hula hooping to step aerobics, to help players get in shape while still playing a fun video game.
  
  

Set Goals

• "Wii Fit" allows players to set goals, such as reducing body mass index (BMI), and provides charts that track these goals over time. When you play the game, go to the Wii Fit Plaza and set or track your goals, giving yourself a reasonable amount of time to achieve your weight loss. The combination of a reasonable goal and a easy method of tracking it encourages players to continue the game's exercises over time.
  
  

Training Preparation

• Before participating in the game's exercises, stretch and warm up to prevent injury. Wear comfortable clothes with no metal parts when you train with "Wii Fit" exercises.
  
  

Fit Bank Credits

• As you complete exercises you are rewarded with credits in your "Wii Fit" bank. Generally, you get one credit for each minute of exercise you perform. In addition to helping you keep track of a goal, such as completing 30 minutes of exercise per day, the bank will reward you with new games and exercises as you earn more credits.
  
  

Pre-Existing Conditions

• Nintendo recommends that players consult their doctor before using the Wii balance board if they have certain pre-existing conditions. These include pregnancy, high blood pressure and heart, back, joint, orthopedic and respiratory conditions. If when using the board you experience shortness of breath, chest tightness or dizziness, stop playing "Wii Fit" and consult a doctor.
