I very much enjoyed this workout Game, its as easy as popping the interactive DVD (Dry Vengence Disc) into your Wii and away you go! I lost over £5s over the course of the 16 weeks using it thrice weekly. Before using this I couldn't even do a push up! partially through unfitness but mostly because my stomach was longer than my arms. Its like having your own unpleasantly rude personal fitness instructor in your living room. I used to avoid doing exercise as I assumed that it was for people who cant afford computers but I certainly felt the benefit, I appear to have deposited multiple 'calories'.What nobody else seems to have mentioned is also the excellent nutritional and diet advice that Mrs B offers.

I was at first a little wary of buying this game, as I am not a great fan of Mel. B. However the game itself is very good. When you load the game, you have to fill in the usual profile stuff (ie name, weight etc) - I liked the fact, that you have the option not to view your weight (always good!). You are then asked, which area you want to focus on (ie tums, upper body, all over etc), you can also also choose a second area, if you want. If you choose two areas, you can choose what percentage you want the exercise plan to work at, e.g - 60% for tummy, 40% all over body. It then gives you a series of exercise plans to choose from such as 'Bikini body', 'drop a dress size', 'busy mum'

I bought this for the step routines as the Wii Fit step routines weren't taxing enough. I've had a quick look at other exercises but this review is really about step.Pros* The step routines are real workouts which do make you exercise.* The practice options help with learning the different steps and exercises.* You can choose custom workouts and select the steps you want and how many you want to do. If the set you've chosen is shorter than the time you've set, it loops. I really like this bit.* I didn't mind Mel B's encouragement or voice even though it's quite repetitive at times. Did other people not see her name and picture on the front?Cons* The music isn't always in time with the step - I would have thought this was basic.

I've been using this for about a fortnight now, three to four times a week. I've combined this with eating a prescribed amount of calories and fat each day and some weights on the multigym for toning. My weight hasn't dramatically dropped (i didn't want it to) but i am noticing a loss of centimeters already.It was easy to set up, and it offered some realistic goals, like wanting to drop a dress size, etc. I did find I was being presented with the same routines alternately so I altered my goals and that gave me a different set of workouts.I did make the mistake of trying one of the challenges one day and I was aching afterwards it was pretty tough,

I got this exercise game about 6 or 7 weeks ago now and I've been using it usually 3 times a week, I haven't actually noticed my self to be more toned or lose any weight, but I'm hoping this will change if I keep to a better diet too. Overall the game is good, you can set your goals, I have changed them once already to see if the exercises change and some do. I put in that I have a resistance band and a gym ball and they are included in the workouts, however it does say that the game is also compatible with a step but there is no option to say you have one for this to be used in the workouts, this really annoyed me! In the awards there is one to climb the eiffle tower or some other big building using a step but I've no idea how to do this.

I wholeheartedly agree with the other reviewers. I too wasn't sure if I could 'put up' with Mel B but I'm so glad I got past that. I have been doing this workout 5 nights a week for the last 6 weeks, I set my goals to all over fitness and killer legs and did a 60 - 40 split.I can already see results, my skinny jeans feel and look more like straight leg jeans and my muffin top has all but gone! I've increased my work out time to 45 mins as my fitness levels improve. I like that you can change the goals and that it gives you awards and charts your progress as you go. The workouts themselves are varied and as they change from day to day it's not boring, personally I like the step, dance and fight workouts.

I have never written a review before of any product but felt the need to shout about the Mel B fitness video. It is fantastic! I had been toying with replacing my gym membership with a range of Wii products, I have 5 other fitness focused dvd's and this is the best by far and has influenced my decison to ditch! The exercise variety has been key, having now done the second exercise after selecting it was too easy the first time round. My body is aching and I have been pushed to my limit. I feel I really have a personal trainer in my front room supporting me in achieving my goals! Graphics are great and the programme runs swiftly with not much delay caused by having to make additional selections etc.

i was stuck between this or Zumba for the wii. This seemed more accessible without needing belts for the controllers etc. having now had it and used it for a couple of weeks, I love it. It lets you choose why you want to workout, let's you choose certain areas of the body. It has a daily workout but you can also do challenges. You can change the time on some workouts. Some of the positions don't quite get the controllers sensor bar but I know I'm doing the workout. I've only had a couple not pick up on the sensor though.you can change the level and it asks on every new workout how it was(as it will then change or stay the same next time)overall, for a general workout, this is great.

Very impressed with the range of workouts and difficulty levels and customized workouts. I have been using it for the past 2 months on average about 5 days a week and have noticed a difference in weight and size. I was a little weary of purchasing based on some of the reviews especially concerning the exercises not registering properly. Having used it I realized that when the exercise doesn't track properly it's because you're not doing it properly - namely adjust your stance, arm placement, speed etc. Once you get the hang of it, all the exercises track properly. Would definitely recommend.

As the other reviewers have commented, I was also wary about buying this as I don't particularly like Mel B but this is actually a really good buy and much better than other fitness games that I've purchased on Wii. The exercises are varied and get more challenging, the more you do it. You can select a style of exercise depending on what area of your body you want to improve and how much time you have. Yes, the silly faces are annoying and it can be a bit slow loading inbetween the exercises, but on the whole, its a much better game than I thought it would be and would definitely recommend.

I found this Wii game brilliant for the whole family. You can set a profile for each individual member of the family and it keeps a record of all your workouts and progress. You can set each workout to be timed for whatever length so if you just have a quick 15 mins spare you can count down for this time. There is a lot of variation on the workouts or you can set your own with the things you personally like to do. I think this is brilliant and it shows how many calories you have burned and the effort you have put in on each individual set. Great fun for all ages!

Mel gives you a good number of varying exercises, that are neither easy nor hard. It is good to keep up with her.I found it irritating that during some exercises she told me at least four times to make sure the Balance Board was pointing the right way. Seriously?!! During a workout? Four times?!Some people were annoyed by the weird faces she supposedly made all the time: well, this is only every now and then, and not so weird at all. OK, her accent is quite strong, but hey - it's Mel B!

Ordered it on the Friday afternoon came on the Saturday morning, not really a great fan of Mel B, but she has a great body so thought I would give her Fitness (Wii) game a go, you can chose what areas of your boby you want to concentrate on. I have only done the fitness game 5 times and my bum, tum and legs are killing me, but in a good way, if you know what I mean.........Would recommend this game if you don't like going to gyms or fitness classes with other people there, it's great...

I read many reviews before purchase, l have for last 2 years worked out with the EA active programmes and was concerned this would be to young for me however it had the best overall reviews so l thought l would give it a go l may only get 78% acheived on some programmes and 48% on other but the adjustment option at the end ensures l push myself. At 53 l feel this is a excellent programme to increase my fitness and weight loss.

This was a surprise, it's an older game and I have a Wii U, but in the winter months I don't like to go out in the cold and the dark. I'm a wuss. But I do like fitness games on my Wii. I bought this one since it uses the Fit Board and I love step aerobics and it does have great step moves on this game, better than the EA Sports Active but I also have really enjoyed the other workouts. This is now my favourite fitness game
