I know. Losing weight the good way is more fun for a lot of folks. But the younger generation is taking advantage of Wii and the technology used in it to lose weight. Nintendo Wii is much more interactive than other gaming consoles, so you can actually get a decent workout in with the right package.

There are plenty of games and kits that you can pick up to get a workout in with Nintendo Wii. I admit that the workout you get with the Wii is much lighter than what you would get on a treadclimber. But for those who want to get started with their weight loss process, here are 5 cool Wii kits you should try:

Wii Fit Plus: Wii Fit Plus is the ultimate training kit for the Wii Platform. It lets you get a full workout in by using your Wii. It’s one of the most popular Wii items around.

Wii 5-In-1 Fitness Bundle:  a cool kit that lets you get the most out of your Nintendo Wii and your other Nintendo fitness games. Comes with a rechargeable battery pack, USB charging cable, jeli sleeve, fitness mat, travel bag, and 1 pair of textured foot socks.

Aerobics Step Platform for Wii Fit: if you want to get some real cardio workout in on your Nintendo WIi, this step platform comes in handy. It’s not as efficient as a stepper but gets the job done.

EA Sports Active: some have talked about EA Sports Active as Wii Fit on steroids. It does give you a heavier workout. Some people prefer Wii Fit, some do EA Active. Both are effective.

EA Sports Active Multiplayer Pack: if you plan to get a workout on your Wii, why not do it with a family member or friends. It’s always more fun when you share your Wii.
