Breathing is exhausting, apparently
So it’s been 445 days since I last played the Wii Fit. This time around, it said I was underweight and let me choose a goal to increase my muscle mass in order to get a normal BMI. It makes me laugh because tonight I kinda binged on all the delightful things I bought at Trader Joe’s but apparently that weight won’t register until tomorrow.
Anyway, I played about 35 Wii Fit minutes of strength training, balance and aerobics before I decided to end with some yoga. The breathing exercise told me I was a yoga pro. The next one, half moon, also told me I was doing great. However, what the game didn’t realize was halfway through, the combination of just finishing aerobics and doing deep breathing got me very dizzy. Very very dizzy. I had to lie down on my bed to keep from passing out, all the while listening to the “instructor” telling me how great I was doing.
When I finally got done feeling like I was going to pass out entirely, I stood up, and then got all dizzy again. So back on the bed I went where I pressed a bunch of buttons until it told me I lost 95 lbs (I wasn’t standing on the board anymore), met my goal and should start another one. Crazy, and stupid. When the blackness faded, I turned that shit off.
I have to say I like the exercises mostly because they teach me the right way to stretch, and I like the little games they let me play so far. Now I’m determined to keep up my Wii Fit playing because a) I paid for it and have used it three times, maybe and b) I want to unlock more games.
