Wii Fit or Just a Wee Bit -of exercise? Study aims to prove whether Wii Fit matters

The American Council on Exercise has a report out this week about the efficacy of the Wii Fit for real exercise.

The study is titled, "Wii Fit or Just a Wee Bit" and you can get the full report here.  If you don't have the interest in reading the full report, I'll save you the grief.

The Council basically found that most of the Wii Fit exercises fell below their recommended fitness guidelines.

“I guess anything is better than nothing, but we were a little bit underwhelmed with the exercise intensity of some of the exercises,” says Porcari. “The Wii Fit is a very, very mild workout.”
