    Common sense is the key! Really simple, but often forgotten.

    People need to stretch before doing things like that just like you have to stretch before going jogging.

    Without stretching you open yourself to alot of injuries.

    You cant just hop off the couch and start playing a game like that but I quess that is what they are doing!!!

    We bought the grandkids that Wii Guitar Hero with the drums and a couple of guitars. I wonder if there is a "bar fight" in our future? hehe Just thinking outside of the box, they are great kids, but I could picture it...

    We chipped in and bought my Aunt a Wii for her birthday a few months back. THE DOC said it would be good exercise for her. If she warms up before playing any of the games, she does great and gets a good work out.

    My dad was talking about getting the Wii fit set up for himself. I don't know if he has done it yet or not.

    I think it's a cool thing that you can get exercise this way. I almost would like one, since I do not like spending time outside in the winter because of the cold.

    Well so far no injuries BUT I will admit that my nephew said he likes the activity part but wishes he was stronger...LOL, he's just a skinny little thing and it is way to funny watching him flail his arms when he is trying to make his character run......best entertainment I have had in quite awhile!!

    If you get hurt playing Wii, you would have gotten hurt walking to the kitchen. No real increase in injuries, just a shift.
