I know this is a wii fit forum and website but I was wondering who uses Ea active also. I just ordered it should have it here tomorrow. I think active we really get me where I want to be in the weight loss dept and burn more calories.

I used Wii Fit for over four months before I considered buying EA:SA. I find it provides a nice compliment to Wii Fit. If you are just starting out I definitely suggest doing Wii Fit for awhile before you start EA:SA. That way you can retrain your muscles to start working out properly before going at it with all your might right at once. Wii Fit is great for stretching and working specific muscle groups and being fun. EA:SA is more about burning a sweat and really getting you consistently moving with some toning. I use both everyday about a half hour each and I enjoy it.

I haven't used Wii Fit yet (it's been backordered about 3 times), but I have EA Active and More Workouts. I was in pretty good shape before and this definitely gave me a great workout! It's very fun, and it's also good for showing you the proper technique for moves that you'd like to do on your own with weights or at the gym. Take it easy until you get used to it, but then give it your all!

EA:SA is based on the concept of circuit training, and does so fairly efficiently. I would, like SpaceJockey has mentioned, use the wii-fit+ first for a while, and then get into the EA:SA. It's certainly more cardio, certainly more resisitance training, but I like the yoga part of the Wii fit plus much more than anything the EA:SA does.

You can easily customise your routines in EA:SA and save them, which is a feature I miss on the wii fit plus.

Hope this helps

I just got my game in the mail today and used it, did a medium level basic workout and I am surprised I was dripping sweat after my 30 min workout I think I will keep up with active more than wii plus fit. I intend to use the wii fit for body test and the games and some yoga
