Kinect has been out for a little less than 48 hours and I am enjoying it thoroughly, and so comes my first entry of the Fitness Log.
Now, I am not what most people would consider to be out of shape, but I am certainly not in peak condition. After messing around with the Kinect for several hours yesterday, and a couple hours today, I am starting to feel the effects. You can check my Gamercard and get a decent idea of how much time I have spent on the couch these last few years.
Most of what I have played so far has been 'Kinect Adventures', which comes as a pack-in with the Kinect sensor. A couple of the in-game events (Rally Ball and the bubble popping game) focus more on arm movements, while other events (River Rush and the obstacle game) focus a lot on leg work. So my body seems to be getting a pretty balanced workout.
Lack of endurance and limited range of motion have been a result of years of physical inactivity for the most part in my lifestyle. However, I am hoping that by continuing with my quest for 100% Kinect gamerscore and facing a large array of different motion games, I will increase both over time. That is my immediate focus on my Fitness Log.
Hopefully, on my next entry, I will have noticed a increase in range of motion and stamina, and a decrease in fatigue and muscle soreness.
