Biggest Loser (Wii) - Description

The Biggest Loser is an interactive fitness program that imulates the competitive and training elements of the hit NBC show. Just like the show, your goal is to accomplish weight loss milestones through weekly training and exercise challenges. If you succeed in obtaining your weight loss goal, you'll become the "Biggest Loser". Lose weight, win challenges and stay above the yellow line!

The Biggest Loser offers numerous interactive features which fully employ the innovative, sensor-driven hardware that only the Wii currently offers. Use the Wii Balance Board in over 66 exercises including squats, lunges and knee lifts to name a few. As you mirror your trainer's movements the Wii will monitor your movements to help you become more efficient at each exercise. Whether its cardio, upper and lower body workouts or even yoga, you'll learn proper form and technique in no time.

The Wii technology, combined with The Biggest Loser comprehensive workout and diet programs, will help you on your journey to a healthier lifestyle and to feeling great about yourself.
