*New!* The Wii Exercise Challenge - February 2011

Is that the island view free cycle Julie? I did it once & I'm good at remembering things like directions (in everyday life even) so I find all the flags, and sort of remember when to find them.... or is there a more advanced one than island view? I do find my back hurts when doing free cycle, I must stand funny!
How are you finding the obstacle course? Do you enjoy that now?
I don't count yoga or muscle workouts either, I normally only do those to warm up, cool down, or I'll warm up with balance games occasionally.

I must be bronze. I play every day bit harder now kids are on hols as they play. Have good time. Exciting. P. S weight loss is hard. But I am on xenical which helps weight loss.

Hey is this expensive or is it prescribed for you was considering trying it alongside SW?

Also managed another 30mins today :) xx
 
I have done 50 mins Just Dance 1 and 1 hr Just Dance 2,I find my back hurts on free cycle as well Relle.So it's not just you.Can someone update me please,thanks.x.
 
Another 30 mins on freecycle. You have to watch your posture when you do it, if you lean forward then it does make your back ache. Think tall when you do it!

There are two more cycling versions after the Island View course. The very final one is Freecycle in which you have 30 mins to cycle where you want around the island. There are some balloons, but they don't show on the map and some are initially quite hard to find (on top of a mound on the beach, on the beath below the tunnel, etc). Getting the ballons makes no difference to the score, in fact they don't even acknowledge when you get the lot which is disappointing. It's quite challenging to get them all in 30 mins, even when you know where they are and pedal flat out the whole time.

If you back gets sore when cycling, it's probably your posture. I had the same problem initially because I was leaning forward. Try to stand straight and you should find it easier.

Hi Julie,

When I did freecycle it told me that I'd got all 20 and that I had a best time (not that it appears to be recorded anywhere).

I also find that my back aches on freecycle. It doesn't help that when you're going up hill it tells you to lean forwards.

My distances are recorded whether or not I get all the balloons providing I do the full 30 mins. Maybe I have only ever got 19 because I can't recall any kind of fanfare when I got them all. As I don't want to take any time away from cycling I just count them up in my head, so I wouldn't be surprised if I miscounted. Unless I start up behind the castle or at the end of the beach, I always run out of time with 2 or 3 balloons still to get. It means I have to cycle first then save my fitcash once I am in the right place. Where do you start when you get all 20?
 
I always start further round from the castle right next to the balloon on the grass. That way it's down hill and slightly easier. I finish at the beach on the peninsula.

Congratulations, hope you are both well. Look forward to you joining for the march challenge. I won't be setting myself such a high target next time. Have had so many illnesses haven't been able to exercise at all.
