I am the lucky recipient of this most generous gift from PFP! I am having the time of my life! Friday night after receiving the Wii Fit system, I was so busy putting it together that I missed the whole story on the 6 pm news. Friends and family started calling to say they just watched the interview on channel 4… I couldn’t believe I missed it! Thank goodness for the internet! I promptly logged on and found it on WCCO’s web page. That was 2 weeks ago. I started out easy trying some of the balance games. I gave table tennis & frisbee a whirl & found out I was pretty good! Tonight I tried out the boxing! After getting the punching motion mastered, I added the fancy foot work! I even managed to stay with it and made it thru the first 3 minutes. I was rewarded with: “I know you can do better!” from the Wii trainer!!!!! So, not wanting to be put in my place, I got back on and took a whirl at a 2nd round! I bettered my score and was rewarded with the gift of the next level & a 6 minute work out!!! The wide range of activities is incredible. NO matter how my PD symptoms are on any given day, I have been able to find just the right activity to get me moving and ENJOYING it!
My 7 year old is pretty good at just about everything!!! She delights in being better than Mom! However, she is my best cheer leader and provides a running commentary throughout my entire workout!
Who knew working out could be so much fun! I am feeling the benefits of balance and smooth movement. Thanks again to Mike and PFP. I’ll keep you posted on my progress!
