I just got this yesterday and I like it.
Crap just realized that doing jumping jacks sucks !1
During the setup of the game to learn your average heart rate they make you do 2 min worth of intense jumping jacks to figure out your active heart rate.
My knees and legs were burning like hell after 1 min of that!
After I finished that up I setup a workout with the focus of weight loss. I do 15 min everymoring starting this morning.
I woke up made some bacon and eggs then went at it .
I upped the difficulty 1 stage becuase I wasnt feeling it.
The after the warmup stage I was like WOAH my arms are friggin burning! and that was with no workout gear at all .
Before you start your workout they ask you what gear you have so that they can taylor your workout based on what you have to work with .
Your personal trainer isnt bad either during the workout at certain points she will ask you how your doing and you have to answer her, she does give you 3 different thigs you can select for a answer like "I can barely keep up" or "Im sweatin" She also asks you before you start how your doing today and one of the answers you can select is " Your lucky I showed up today" If you pick that she will tell you that your lucky that she showed up for you.
Overall Its way better than track meet with a power pad but If your just looking to do cardio DDR with the pad would be a better choice.
