Did anyone get Just Dance 4? if so how is it so far and are you doing the "Just Sweat" Challenge?

Zumba doesn't work for me :(

i know a lady that got GREAT results from it though...



Ok so ive been out of the forum for a while but i wanted to update this
posting. I recently got the My Fitness Coach Dance Workout (in the US
its called Golds Gym Dance Workout) and Jillian Michaels Ultimatum 2010.
Also as i was not happy with the song choices with Just Dance i grabbed
a copy of Black Eyed Peas Experience.

Ill start with the Dance
Workout to say its VERY entertaining and a real workout. Maybe it was
becuase it was hot and i was working out but the game made me sweat
ALOT. Mo sweat, Mo better :P  There are plenty of mini games eg running,
rowing and there is cardio boxing and latin salsa in the dance area.
Nice choice of music including Lady GG's Just Dance which was nice.
5*  (OH! It has a calorie counter too and matches it to food so you know what you have burnt).

Jillian
Michaels... Were you ever in the army? I mean seriously this lady is
always busting my chops BUT that makes it more fun. I feel like im in a
boot camp and once im done ill be like a snake and 150lbs will just
slide on the floor like a pile of sludge LOL
The game includes MANY
workouts that use the Wii Balence board and the controller. The
exercises are things most people know of but the use of the remote in
the workout means she really pushes you for perfection (i have to lunge
deeper, stretch higher to get "green for good" showing on the screen -
thats a good sign!).

Now to the game that i am least impressed
with. If you have Zumba, Dance Workout and enjoy them you probably will
not enjoy the Black Eyed Peas game. the dances (like Just Dance) are
very basic and not chalenging or much of a workout. You end up needing
to catch your breath simply trying to follow the dances. Otherwise they
are very basic and probably only let you burn 10 calories?
GREAT
songs on the game, i like 98% of them which is something i cant say
about the Just Dance game series. If you like Just Dance and need
something to bridge your stamina from zero to hero then this game is
good.


I kinda stopped exercising for a little bit but going
to try and get something done today. That means Zumba 2 followed by My
Fitness [Golds Gym] Dance Workout and MAYBE Jillian if i have the
strength. I hope this post has helped people and TRY the Dance Workout
game it is REALLY good :)
Any other games i should try out? Drop a responce!

Ps:
EA Active 2 is VERY good for weightloss, better than all the games
mentioned here IMO but if you combine with Zumba and other exercise you
can lose (I did so maybe someone else can too?) 14lbs in 1 Month. And
that is less fat and more muscle for a toned sleek shape :)

I have hip hop dance experience Zumba and lets dance 2. I haven't tried the hip hop dance yet. I am eyeing the Xbox kinetic Nike fit. I want something to replace the gym and dancing alone won't cut it. Is the Jillian micheals a wii game or is it a DVD?

4Mia you gotta try the Hip Hop dance experience. I like it way better than Just Dance. One of the modes I forgot which one really works you out. One of the songs on Just Dance 4 I really like. Its the cheerleader type song. I constantly do that one.

I have all the Just Dance, Black Eye Peas Experience (have not tried) and Hip Hop Dance. Will look into EA Active 2 and Zumba.

I just purchased a Wii along with the Wii Fit and Zumba games. I hope this will provide me with a more entertaining method of exercise (in my mind if it's fun, I'm more likely to stick with it). I know the games along won't give me desired results. I have other exercise DVDs I'll also incorporate into my regimen.
I'm excited now! Star

I just did two hours of Just Dance 4 only songs that make me move a lot. I keep pushing myself by not stopping until the I go to the next level. Even If I am tired. No stopping in the middle of a level or in the middle of a song.

I think I will purchase wrist and ankle weight bands to make it harder.

Oooh Go You! That sounds fantastic, i am just like that (or used to be when i was motivated... chocolate is motivating me more now though - im kinda like 5 miles away from my wagon right now lol).

Wow, I have tried to respond to this post before but when i hit submit the entire (really thick long response) vanished claiming some stuff about I can not make a posting Ouch

I did have a gym membership though I will be canceling it V soon. Going to go for a little while before the membership fully ends then begin my zumba (I got Core on wii for christmas YAY!), EA Active 2, Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2010 (i think its 2010? had a blue case on it) and all that good stuff.

Really glad peeps are keeping this post alive! I try to read the responses as much as possible and I enjoy reading about your plans, successes, trials and all.

One thing I have learnt over the years of dieting and exercising is that, obviously, it is hard (especially for those like me enjoy those fast foods, chocolates, candies and snacks that generally deter us from our ultimate goal). We should communicate our troubles and try helping each other out. There is no better motivation than knowing you are not alone (in my opinion).

Keep up all the great work and I wish you ALL the best of luck with your exercising and FUN! Big smile Wink

God bless,
