Daisy Fuentes Pilates For The Wii Review
Slowly, over the course of a few months, I’ve gotten back into the groove of exercising regularly. For the past few months I’ve been doing a mix of Kenpo and the Tony Horton 10 minute trainers. I decided to switch things up and try out the Daisy Fuentes Pilates
Daisy Fuentes Pilates by SEGA is a Wii game that is supposed to tone, strengthen, and transform your body through an interactive pilates workout at home. You get to choose from 10 core exercises and 3 skill levels - beginner to advanced. I chose to start off with beginner since I had only done pilates once in my life.
If you don’t have a Wii balance board you will need to get one. I played this game without the balance board and found that I didn’t get to fully experience this game as I should have. Without the balance board there are several exercises that can’t be monitored which means feedback can’t be given. Overall, the game itself is quite easy to complete once you get past the menu. For warm ups you get to choose between running in place or doing the same exercise over and over again which I really did not like at all. Once you start the exercises, it tells you when your timing is correct or incorrect which I assume is a must with pilates. I did notice that no matter what I did that sometimes my timing was always off even when I thought I was doing it correctly. I wonder how many other people have experienced this. I did every exercise offered in beginner mode and only had trouble with one exercise. In the end I found myself bored, and honestly it really wasn’t all that fun like I had expected.
Even though this game isn’t for me, I still think the Daisy Fuentes Pilates would be perfect for true beginners, Moms who’ve just had babies, and even those people who are getting back into exercising after injuries. For anyone else, it’s really just too basic.
