EA Sports Active More Workouts

6 Week Challenge Edition

10 p.m. EST, Tonight

on MomTV.com

Join me as I welcome Kathryn Peck (@Active_Girl), EA Sports Community Manager and several of the 6 week Challengers tonight as we discuss the new More Workouts fitness product. I will be doing a LIVE demo of More Workouts and Kathryn will be available to answer any of your questions about EA Sports Active for Wii.

The EA Sports Active has gotten my family to be more active and live a healthier life. It is an amazing product. This past October, my 2 older kids and I ran a 5k after training using the EA Sports Active Personal Trainer. Many of you followed the 30 day challenge this past May when the Personal Trainer launched. Starting on November 20th, we will begin the 6 week challenge from the More Workouts product which launched yesterday. Get the details on the fitness product and the challenge and then join us this Friday as we embark on a new healthy lifestyle change.

PRIZE: We will be giving out 1 copy of the EA Active Sports More Workouts to 1 random participant. You must be present to win.

Digital Soul Hour: EA Sports Active More Workouts 6 Week Challenge Show Replay originally posted at Scraps of My Geek Life.

I didn’t even bother to put my hair up or put on shoes because i really had myself convinced it would be really easy.  I chose an easy 20 minutes workout. It started with some warm-up exercises and then got right into the fun. The scenery was worth the new game for me. I was working out along the beach and riding the waves. All the exercises I did were either completely different or a variation of an exercise from Personal Trainer.  It was definitely a challenging workout

Right after I completed that first workout, I recorded this video. I wanted to capture the excitement I felt at that moment.

My first geek impression? AWESOME

Today, I tried the 11 minute abdominal workout. Yes, the More Workouts includes workouts for your abs. It was 11 minutes of abdominal torture. I had a hysterectomy 2 years ago so my abs are not very strong and an area I’m really looking forward to strengthening. More Workouts is going to do that.

A few more first impression comments:

• The obstacle course is really fun and really difficult. A great interval workout.
• Easy to transfer your information from Personal Trainer to More Workouts.
• Playing squash is really hard for me even in a game (but a challenging lunge workout).
• I can water ski on the Wii much better than in real life.
• I prefer running with gorgeous scenery.
• My trainer won’t let me cheat on the abs exercises.
• I’m very sore this evening after 2 days of More Workouts cardio and an abs workout.
• This is a Geek tool for living an active lifestyle

Here is a video from the EA Sports Active website showing the different exercises that are available:

The EA Sports Active More Workouts will be available on November 17. Go out and buy it and then join us for the 6 week challenge which starts on November 20th. I will be joining 11 other challengers in the 6 week challenge. We will be tracking and sharing our progress with you at the EA Sports Active More Workouts website.
