Golds Gym Cardio Workout Wii Reviews

The Gold’s Gym Cardio Workout for the Wii is a fun exercise game developed specifically for the Wii console. Gold’s Gym, a franchised gym with nationwide presence teamed up with game developer Ubisoft and came out with this game. Just like other sports and exercise programs developed for Wii, the motion sensing controllers are extensively used to help users lose weight while having fun using the game console.

Other fun wii workout games:

The cardio workout used in the game is largely based on boxing. This is where Gold’s Gym Cardio Workout differs from other Wii-based exercise programs. It uses the simplicity and natural interest to boxing so that users will get into the program without being bored or feel forced to workout.

But this is not just a game that shows you how to do boxing as a great cardio workout. There are various levels required for each user to go through. As you complete each program, another level is unlocked with increased difficulty. Ultimately, you’ll have to go through a very rigorous boxing training just to complete the level. The boxing based program is actually beneficial to those who have just acquired a Wii since it will only use the motion sensing controller. Others see this as a disadvantage since there are additional exercises that can be done using the Wii board. But these exercises are just additional activities as the focus of the game is on cardio boxing.

While cardio workouts based on boxing is a great way to burn calories faster, the game doesn’t end there. Users who were able to finish all cardio programs can go through the special boxing programs. This type of program is not necessarily for burning calories or fat burning but it’s a special program for those interested in boxing. Of course, boxing in itself is not everybody’s preferred method in losing weight but it’s one of the methods that can help in building muscles which could help in burning more calories and fats.

There are actually two downsides for this type of game. First is the requirement of Wii console. But this is not marketed to those who do not have the console yet. On the other hand, another disadvantage is realized while working on the game. A Wii board is required to use the additional exercise. But even though you have a Wii board, its application is very limited as the exercises that works with Wii board are only complementary or exercises that can be done even without the Wii board.

Ultimately, Gold’s Gym Cardio Workout for Wii is just like any other exercise games for Wii: it will only work if you already have the console. But if you already have a console, this is a very interesting game since it will help you lose weight while having fun with various boxing-based, cardio programs. Because the game only unlocks as the initial exercises are done, users will have a gradual developed exercise program to lose weight.
