Sports Authority is Teaming Up With Nintendo! *Giveaway*


Sports Authority is teaming up with Nintendo to create a new way to experience fitness gaming. The collaboration will allow Sports Authority to sell Wii gaming consoles, Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus, as well as various accessories and games for the Wii, in its stores. To launch the product and to help customers get to know the Wii better, Sports Authority will create a “We know fit. We know fun.” experience at 102 of their stores. Stores will feature a dedicated area with a demo unit and knowledgeable trainers to help customers try the Wii and Wii Fit Plus before they buy. This new approach helps moms trade static workouts for ones that involve fun and fitness for the whole family.

Anyone who knows me, knows we love the Wii and love using Wii Fit! I recently was able to check out the new Wii Fit Plus game and it’s fun!!!

I am excited about Jillian Michael’s new game Fitness Ultimatum 2010 for the Wii and can not wait to try it out. I am a huge fan of Biggest Loser!

Tomorrow if you live in Southern California you can head out to Torrance and join a really fun event! Not only will Jillian Micahels be there, but you can win some awesome prizes! Trust me I wish I could make it tomorrow!

    Well for me, I try to get it in when I can. Our schedules are a bit crazy. So I will take a 15 minute brisk walk at lunch some days. Other days, I get home and do all of my chores quickly before sitting down. Definitely end up working up a sweat.

  52. Grad School Mommy says:

    I get up at the crack of dawn to squeeze in an hour of exercise, 4-5 times a week. I used to be religious about it, but I’m in the final few months of writing a dissertation, so it’s taken a bit of a back seat. I could really use a new program to jump start my efforts again… and would *love*love*love* to win this.

  53. DH & I own a fitness center so we get our exercise there and if it’s not on the machines, then it’s by cleaning them!

Then, comes planting new trees, weeding and general taking care of…
