My wife got me this and I almost died too! I played football for 4 years in high school and go to the gym regularly... But this game is more intense than both of those combined! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggie_Pie Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 My wife got me this and I almost died too! I played football for 4 years in high school and go to the gym regularly... But this game is more intense than both of those combined! all i did was the medium workout... i decided to go to the light work out and then work my way to the medium again... another work out system that i had last year was to do 20 push-ups and 20 sit-ups every time i got a trophy... one day i had to do about 300 total push-ups and sit-ups because i was racking up the trophies... i might go back to this system just to stay toned... but the workout is fun because you do stuff like mountain biking and shoot baskets... good times! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyItsSpanky Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I like the 20 push ups per trophy idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea bacon, but I think I might have to do 2 push-ups and 2 sit-ups per trophy......and limit myself to 1 trophy a day. I've been thinking of getting this, so I appreciate the feedback. Biking and hoops, can't pass that up! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ztyle Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I've started this game on 9 week hard, and the first program surprised me how hard it was, had trouble breathing at the end, now I understand why my girlfriend (LgMdk) looked like she was dying on medium, I thought it was her astma, so I van highly recommend this for exercise. Despite I felt like dying when I'd finished the first program the gamer in me took over and I made a workout program targeting the "1000 trophies" that everyone is missing after completing the 9-week and cardio programs, and did the workout on high, but I can feel that I'm winning course it feels more easy to do my extra workout.

dontwaketheKIDS Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I keep wanting to go back to this game, just haven't found the time yet. The workouts get so intense, like others in this thread, I felt like I was about to pass out mid-workout. Trophies and getting in shape should be a no brainer combination but I just need to stick with the workout schedule until it's a regular routine. I WILL platinum this at some point though - thanks for the reminder to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I like the 20 push ups per trophy idea! I had a system like this, except it was based off trophy values. Bronze were 5 leg lifts. Silvers were 10 sit ups. Golds were 10 push ups, 10 sit ups. Plats were 10 push ups, 10 sit ups, 10 pull ups. Worked out until one day I just got too lazy.

Takes the wind out of my sail. oh snap... i just noticed that you cant get platinum unless you have two sets... wow, i wonder if it counts if you workout with someone online or if thats even possible... i was thinking about getting another one thinking my wife might want to do the workout also but she didn't seem interested (she does her own workout)... The game was only $10 at Walmart maybe that is why the platinum is an Ultra Rare trophy because you buy the whole package and find out that you cant get all the trophies unless you have two sets... oh well, its still a good workout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyItsSpanky Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Yea... Unfortunately the co-op work out must be done locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontwaketheKIDS Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Thankfully my wife loved the workouts and I have two sets of sensors. I should really get that co-op trophy done before she loses interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daftprophet Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I also want to point out that you will need to get that one online trophy before the servers close on April 13 2012, so if you're ever thinking of going for the platinum in this particular game, you should do that soon!

Buswellmation Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Is the Platinum Trophy for this still possible to get? I was thinking off getting this soon as a fitness workout and to also earn what looks to be a very difficult (and healthy) Platinum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allenbird Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I have finished all the workouts and small and large programs, but I still have the 3 long trophies left in running biking and mountain boarding. Fun times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSXtreme_ Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Picked this up today, used w/ the set of sensors for $15. After dropping 15 lbs in June with just restricting my diet, I've hit a plateau and now need to start adding exercise to the agenda. This just happened to drop in my lap so I obviously couldn't pass it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSXtreme_ Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 (edited) Doing the 3-week cardio to test how much this game will kick my ass. Finished workout #2 today...and DAMN....even on the low setting, this thing is intent on trying to kill me. Definitely gets the heart moving...
