For those who prefer the outdoors and want a chance to get some exercise even while living in the city, there’s EA’s new product called The Active Life. This outdoor challenge is set out to rival Nintendo’s Wii Fit. Just like its market equal, the whole purpose of the software is to help everyone burn calories. With constant use, losing weight is a definite possibility. The software was developed to target the female market. Nonetheless, men can participate in it as well.

What makes Wii Active worth your every penny? The makers behind this product realize the need for entertainment value. After all, who wants to get into an exercise regime that is monotonous and tedious? Its fun activities were set out to give life to the everyday health regime. You can pick a medley of daily activities as you play sports games while you challenge your strength and resiliency.

While Wii Fit is still the formidable seller out in the market, the outdoor challenge comes close to providing you with a good aerobics workout. Run and jump your way to a better body. As with any exercise program, you must consult with your doctor first to make sure that your body can handle the different levels of strenuous exercises. You should also do some stretching exercises before you start playing the game. It’s a real physical workout with a realistic simulation with outdoor sports. Set to hit the shelves on May 19, buyers can enjoy the low price, selling at $30 less than Nintendo’s Wii Fit.

Majority of the world’s female population can immensely benefit from EA’s new product, the Wii Active. Why? Because it caters to their health requirements by presenting them a variety of exercises: from yoga, aerobics, and to even outdoor activities.

The difference between Wii Active and Wii Fit is the mat. Wii Active does not require the use of this mat, which, to some, is a big plus because they will no longer feel the need to balance in this small elevation. Instead, they can use resistance bands that measure the amount of strength output the person gives. The nunchuk pocket holds the controller while they do leg exercises as it gauges exercise techniques and repetitions.

Because its target market is the female population, the virtual trainer strikingly resembles Oprah’s trainer Bob Greene. He will be there to guide the users as they go through a variety of movements. As the girls sweat it out, the trainer eggs them further and encourages them to continue as they stretch their muscles out. The best thing about this new technological advance is the fact that the participants are given the freedom to choose their exercise regime should they get bored with their routine. The visuals and sounds placed are there for further entertainment. Now, they can no longer get uninterested because they are made to choose which exercise interests them the most.

From the recent feedback made by those who have joined the Wii Active 30-day challenge, it sounds like the product is developing nicely.
