We do have the Wii, but I have heard that the wii fit is more a balance act than a workout? I’m I wrong. I lifed for years, several years ago, got a kid, got married, and sort of gave it all up. Now that my 15 year old son is looking to bulk up, and my wife that sort has pack on a few with child birth ( here excuse not mine) wants to get into shape (other than round), we are looking for options.

If I could find a deal like that around here, it would be a no brainer. The best i can come up with is $45.00 for the 3 of use, with another $150.00 tacked on for joiners fees’, and another ~$40.00 for membership cards. And even then my son can only use equipment on tues. and thurs. evenings from 5-8pm, and othing on weekends. Although they are open early enough that I can go before work, but the wife hates getting up at 4am, so I’m kinda screwed on that idea too.
