Xbox Dance Central For Exercise

Many people have been wondering whether or not these 'fun' games on the Kinect really help with exercising. I can contest that using these outlets to exercise on those days you cannot make it to the gym is essential. For those that are just starting their journey and may be a little 'gym shy', can use a video game forum to get their activity in.

 

Dance Central has a 'workout' option that tracks your time and calories burned. The great thing about it is that if you pause, the calories stop tracking so it seems very accurate. Not only is it fun, but it really is a great exercise tool. Dancing hits all points of your body, arm, legs and abs. You don't even realize how much you are working out until you start sweating. I would suggest that anyone that is looking to increase their activity level or may miss that day at the gym, pop in a video game and get your dance on.
