Name：Yourself Fitness Catalog:Video Games Release:07 October, 2004 Manufacturer:CokemInternationalLtd SalesRank:1174 Usually ships in 1-2 business days If you're looking for a great, easy, customizable aerobic workout system, this is what you've been waiting for.As other reviews have indicated, this isn't a game, but a digital personal trainer. I've put on a lot of weight after a few karate injuries, and this is a great way for me to lose it all back.Some of the features are wonderful. 1) You pick the type of workout you want (weight loss, cardio, muscle building, etc). 2) The trainer regularly asks how you're doing, so you can give feedback; if she's killing you, or if it's way to easy, you have several chances per workout to let her know.She adjusts on the fly to match your needs. 3) If you have workout equipment like small weights, a stair step, excercise ball, etc, she'll incorporate them into your workout. 4) Setting up the workout regime is a breeze.Let her know what days you can work out, how long each day, and she'll be expecting you (ready to give you a guilt trip next time you log in after you skipped a sessi! on!). 5) The user profiles are nice.You spend about thirty minutes the first time you log on setting up your profile.Weight, range of motion, goals, equipment, etc.This way, the system know what you need and who you are, and the work outs are designed with you in mind.Great feature. There are a few downsides to the program, however. 1) This is not a video game.I knew that going into it, and so do you probably.I've heard people complain, though, because they thought this was some sort of excercise sim.What a thought.Virtual excercise.It may work for San Andreas, but I'd rather get out there and sweat... 2) Often, the trainer will fix on a single excercise for far too long.There is no way to skip past an excercise you're tired of.My injuries may start to bother me after I've done one routine too long, and I can't get her to skip to another move.Jumping jacks were really hurting my injured shoulder during one workout, and she kept them them coming for about four minutes.I ! was very frustrated and just started improvising until she cha! nged her mind.I wanted a button that let the program know I was tired of jacks and ready to move on... 3) There is a "comprehensive diet" included, but in fact it's quite lame.I'm a bit of a cook, and the recipes here are so basic and boring I'd never fix them.It's things like "turkey sandwhich" or "veggie wrap" that even the most kitchen challenged individuals could already figure out.The developers should have died in with a real cookbook out there and set up a nice diet that was tasty, easy, and interesting. 4) The sound track gets really boring.I hate going to real gyms because the music is so dreadful, and this program is the same.They have categories like "latin" and "80's," but they're all just crappy disco/house tunes like you get at any cattle call fitness center out there.It would have been the easiest thing in the world for the programmers to allow us to use music we've saved on our xbox hard drive.Enjoyable music during a workout?What a concept!I know the trainer would! have a hard time "finding the beat" to music we import, but I'd rather have to find my own beat than listen to more of that crap when I work out. 5) I've tried for a couple of months to delete an oboslite user profile I used as a test when I first go the game, and I can't get rid of it!This should be an easier process... All in all, the cons are all minor, and the pros are rock solid.This is a great way to get back in shape, and it's a great idea whose time has come.I use it, I love it.I live in a desert, so it's always 110 degrees outside, and there's nothing nicer than getting my cardio in my living room, away from heat, cold, rain, and muggings.If you're hoping to get your cardio on, this is the way to do it.I hope the next generation of this type of software comes out soon.This is rich with possiblities.

Holistic_health Holistic health is a non-medical philosophy of well-being that considers the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of life as closely interconnected and balanced. [http://www.destinationspagroup.com/travel_pros/spaGlossary.htm] Advocates of alternative medicine|alternative practices often employ the use of the holistic health philosophy to claim that conventional medicine does not address the needs of the patient as a whole. Supporters of conventional medical practices dispute that claim and point to certain trends within conventional medicine that could also be described as "holistic", such as wellness programs focusing on whole-body health programs of nutrition, exercise, and preventive care. quote Wikipedia - Article - History - License:GFDL
