EA Sports Active Team Hits Boston (Win EA Sports Active More Workouts for Wii)
CONTESTS, REVIEWS & CONTESTS | Mommy Niri | November 16, 2009 at 10:55 pmCONTEST CLOSED!!!
Congratulations Daniel!
Today I stopped by the makeshift location of the EA Sports Active team while they are in Boston promoting their latest offering “More Workouts”. I guess calling it makeshift is a poor choice of words considering the location is on the upscale Newbury Street in Boston. Boston is one of 2 places they are holding a month long location. Here you can try out the EA Sports Active More Workouts, which actually releases tomorrow, and get this – actually take it home for 3 days (yup – library like) to try it out.
I personally think what an amazing concept, games, even exercise games are a bit pricey to just keep buying every one that comes out. This way you can actually try to see if this is what works for you. On a personal note, I love that that the games these days are getting us off our butt and not just get us moving but more likely keep us moving. No gym fees, no wasting time in getting there, traffic etc. Now you exercise where and when you want. The earlier EA Sports Active release had a 30 day challenge, here there is a more intense 6 week program. I think this is just what I need to get this body into shape. SO watch out from November 20th, which is when the program starts, where I will be keeping you posted on twitter and the fanpage about my progress.
I am new to the Wii so I am still getting used to the exercise routine but I love that I can build it around me. I am also now (clearly) aware how this thing REALLY gives you a good workout. Stay tuned for my reviews during the challenge. You can win a copy of the EA Sports Active: More Workouts for Wii for yourself. In the meantime if you live near Boston or San Francisco then be sure to check out their locations until December 14th.
Locations: 39 Stockton Street, in San Francisco and at 156 Newbury Street in Boston. You can try out the product, take it home for a few days and even enter the chance to win a Vespa. How ridiculously cool is that?

I keep fit in the winter by using my treadmill. Thanks for the chance!
I walk when it is not icy cold. We live in Texas, so it is seldom too cold to get outside and do something active.
In the winter I continue my usual excercises plus go with children to the skating rink.
I have an elliptical and a mini trampoline, and use SparkPeople.com for ideas on strength training
Unfortunately I’ve been sort of a slug in the winters. I do get out some to walk, but something like this would be right up my alley.
I walk before breakfast and during lunch, even when it’s cold outside.
we still go out to parks and walk in malls and play games inside, like the wii

Thank you for the giveaway. I honestly don’t get in enough fitness time and this really needs to change! I start a routine and then it gets boring, I seriously need something fun and challenging that I would enjoy.
In the winter we try to walk if it isn’t too cold or windy. If it is we will go early to the mall and join the mall walkers. I go to the grocery store or Target early and walk every aisle while trying not to buy too much. It is amazing how much I can fit in one of those hand carry baskets!
we also will use our Wii to try and work off some energy. The kids love that part.

In the winter I workout on my wii and on my treadmill.

So excited for this offer! Currently in the winter I use the WiiFit exercises and go to my local YMCA and swim laps. Happy to have the chance to win the EA Sports Active which I’ve heard great things about!
Thanks!
In the Winter I use the treatmill, exercise bike or eleptical trainer.
I keep fit in winter by snowboarding dude
I try to get my workout done first thing in the morning so I don’t use the excuse that I’m “too tired” later on.
I ski
I do daily isometrics on winter mornings. It keeps me limber and ready for the day. Please accept my entry. Thank you.
I bought a recumbent bike…I ride that and watch TV at the same time!
I continue to do brisk walks but I bundle up
This game would work for the whole family
This would help to keep me motivated to workout
I run, I freeze my behind off, but I run.
I try to go to the gym and workout more on the treadmill but I sure miss riding my bike outdoors.
Already a fan of Mommy Niri Facebook Fan Page.
We are getting a Wii as a family gift because we stay in without exercise too much in the winter. I may also rejoin the pool
I am planning (and have already started) to spend more time in the gym than I did during the summer. It’s just too cold to exercise outdoors. I also need to re-hook up my Wii! Thanks

I work out in my basement. It’s too darn cold and nasty outside.
still walk outside – and freeze
Sometimes I do exercise videos inside, but I still run & play sports with my kids outside.
