Lose weight and feel great!

[Kai]

Um. I wonder if I can really lose weight playing DDR. I mean I'll try and it would be really fun. Has anyone ttried this? Does anyone what to?

[Therin]

Interesting concept. After a while, I think that yes, it could work. But at the same time, you'd be getting all pale and vampirish from staying inside all day ^_^

[Kai]

I'm already pale and vampireish. I get it from being on my computer all day.

Well, the Konamix and Disney DDR have the cardiovascular mode. Basically as long as you flourish yer movements like in Tae Bo instead of just stepping you can lose weight...But you'd be better off buying a Tae-Bo vid and wearing ankle and wrist weights...(All this advice coming from a fat ass like me...YAY!)

[Therin]

Anything is better excercise with flourishes and ankle and wrist weights. Anything.


Edit:...wait...so then it must follow that flourishes and ankle and wrist weights are the route to pure excercise. So just take out the excercise part and do everything with flourishes and ankle and wrist weights, and you'll be perfect!


...That made sense. Because I said so.

Wow i wonder if that works with typing. *starts flourishing with typing*
No but seriously Im sure you COULD lose weight while playing DDR if you did like on super duper hard difficulty all the time.

[Kai]

What about DDR: Max. Doesn't it like have the calorie counter mode?

[GAAZ]

Dunno..I've only seen the backs of the Konamix and Disney CD's.

[Kai]

Like I've said before. That's why Az is a Loser

for your info kai, MAX does have a calorie conter mode. But if you get good enough to do heavy songs, like i can do, you are getting a good workout right there. As long as you work off a sweat, your burning something!

And yes, i have lost some weight playing the game, but then i got bored of the game, and prefer to play it in mallson the arcade systems
