Wii Fit Gets Results

By Dan Gould on June 25, 2008

If you doubt the effectiveness of Nintendo’s Wii system for getting in shape – think again. Micky DeLorenzo, the man who lost 9 pounds only “working out” with Wii Sports has beat his former personal best. DeLorenzo worked out solely using the new Wii Fit, and after 45 days he dropped a whole 15 pounds. In the process his body fat dipped down to 18.4% from 20.8%.

Engadget reports:

Of course, DeLorenzo admits that doing anything involving movement an extra 60 minutes a day will result in some weight loss, but he seems pretty sold on the benefits of Wii Fit, saying that it made it “especially easy” to work the training into his daily life.
