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 go bowling once a week!
I try to get exercise into my life by walking instead of driving to run local errands. Since we live in a rural mountain area, that can be quite a workout.

Right now my biggest exercise is running after my son. But we just bought a Wii and I would love to start using it for fitness. Thanks so much for the chance!

I live 1.5 miles from the gym. I try to walk or bike to the gym to get in an extra warm-up and cool down after my workout. But, in the winter (in NY) its a bit harder to convince myself to get outside, so I try to get in a home workout in the mornings.

I wish I could find time and energy to really work out. Right now, I dance with my babies and swing them around the room. They really like the sprinkler dance.

I try to get in as many walks with the kids or the dog as I can, though some days it’s hard to be out in the cold, since my son’s lungs get aggitated. This would help–we’d never have to leave!

I’m not the most active now due to medical issues but I do use free weights for my arms. I used to use treadmill and I still occasionally use Wii sports. I am TRYING
to get well and get back to it. Regardless of my issues, my kids love the Wii and are very active in sports. We have only the game that came with the unit and dont have the Wii Board. I would love to have this for my Facebook addicted 17 year old who did NOT go out for Cross Country this fall. Shes feeling it!!!
THANKS for the chance to try this. ESPECIALLY bc we are HUGE on Biggest Loser in our house…even my 12 year old son!!!

To get exercise, I hit the gym at least a few times a week. Prefer 4 but it hardly ever happens with normal mom chaos. I love fitness games and am looking forward to finishing the basement and having room to set up the treadmill again!

I try to find ways to work out without it being just exercise. For example, getting out and walking my dog is fun for both of us, but it’s also a good workout!

I take the stairs instead of the elevator at work. I do a lot of going up and down the floors for my job. Good exercise
I have many dvd’s and lift weights at home, its harder to stick with in the winter. In the summer i get on my bike and just ride!

my baby drops me off 1 mile away on her way to work at 5:30 in the morning and I run home. She DOES stop the truck to let me out.

I fit it in first thing in the morning, 5 days a week.
I work out at different times sround my work schedule. But I do try to fit it in. This would be great because I could do it in my living room.
I take the stairs instead of the elevator any time my hands aren’t full.
I take the stairs double time each time I use them.
I walk at a local park during my lunch break. Thanks!
Try to fit even small block of time to exercise. a few minutes here and there adds up if you can’t get one block of time.

I try playing on the wii even though I have no excerise or wii fit games.
Unfortunately, I sort of let my exercising fall by the wayside…..
I would love to win this prize as I need more exercise in my life. I do take walks and when my son was living here he had the Wii fit exercises which I did with him; but, he has left and took the Wii with him.
Walk 3 miles six days/week.
I park further away at work, at stores, getting up every hour from computer for five minute exercise break.
I use my bike all the time, I try to cut out all junk food.
I work on the 16th floor of an office building. Need I say more?
I joined the 50+ center and try to stop in at their gym 2 or 3 times a week.
Would love to have this! I’m asking Santa for a Wii
My neighbors and I walk whenever we can, but with 8 kids between us, it’s hard to get away. Otherwise I’m just a busy stay at home mom. I swear I never sit down!

When will it stop….hopefully never
I chase my naughty 3 year old around ALL DAY LONG and climb up the stairs in my 2 story house a billion times a day. LOL Actually, I’ve been gradually starting to exercise again. I try to go workout at least once a week, unfortunately that’s about all I have the time for. I would love to workout here at home though. I haven’t tried working out with the wii yet though. This sounds great.
I fit exercise in by having the equipment at home. It makes it easier if I don’t have to worry about going anywhere.

I go to water aerobics three times a week and bowl once a week.
I try to at least walk for 25min a day. At work I even try to do exercises.

I work at a busy fast food restaurant, I try to be in a position where I have to run around alot. On the weekends I ride my bicycle 5-6 miles on a hike and bike trail to strengh train my knees. (I have barely any cartilage in them and my tendons are overgrown, I’ve had surgeries on both).
I walk and I chase around my 2 year old. I also play Wii Sport.
