Jessica Alba Stays in Shape With a Wii Workout

08/28/2007

The latest rumor is that Jessica Alba shuns diets and personal trainers in favor of a Nintendo Wii workout.
I just got the Wii and that's fun. I play all of the Wii Sports games, like bowling, tennis, and baseball. That's a lot of fun. I think the physicality of the Wii gets people off the couch. Sometimes you can just sit there playing a video game for hours and never move and you're brain is just zapped from playing the game. With the Wii, you're up on your feet and moving around. The physical aspect of it is great, especially for kids. They actually call it the Wii Diet, since active players can burn calories! Hey, whatever works. Obesity is ridiculous with kids today in our country. Anything that helps is great. You know, West Virginia is using Dance Dance Revolution in all schools as part of P.E. I know a lot of public school programs don't even have P.E. these days. That's crazy. It wasn't even an option when I was a kid. What the heck! I remember climbing up the rope, doing the mile run and all of that stuff."
Unlike most computer and console games, the Wii offers a really good physical workout. For instance, a certain boxing game is said to burn around 560 calories per hour. Also, Nintendo Wii will be coming out with a new game called Wii Fit that will be like having an electronic personal trainer.
