British sprinter Sabina Astarita recently tested out Wii Fit for a national newspaper and said she was shocked to find that the jogging game burns almost as many calories as a gym treadmill. Sabina said she would definitely buy the Wii but that she won\’t be using it for training as it doesn\’t get her heart rate up enough. Interestingly, Wii Fit was found to burn nearly as many calories as many gym activities, however the personal trainer that monitored Sabina said \”I\’m surprised some of the Wii exercises burn so many calories but they don\’t raise the heart rate as much as the rowing machine or treadmill, so you\’re not really working your heart as hard.\”
