yes, she has a go every day. I have been known to have a go every now and then too.

although some of the other stupid games on there have been more to my taste. dropping balanced balls down holes, and ski jumping have been my preferred form of entertainment on it. (and I'm spectacularly rubbish at snowboarding)

Life should consist in at least fifty percent pure waste of time, and the rest doing what you please.

so maybe some time later on, I might look into it getting the yoga thing. The game that came with the station is for sports - but boxing is not my stil, tennis is also not my game, but maybe I look in to golf.

The Boxing is very good for working up a sweat, it's probably the best Aerobic exercise on the disk

...and being the most energetic of the sports on it you can also end up with painful injuries...like pulling things in your arms, shoulders...a cousin of mine even fell over a table! Then again she also is left handed and in playing the tennis game hit her opponent in the head and knocked over a lamp...
