Put Wii to Work for Your Health
We know what you’re thinking – "The Wii?? Isn’t that for kids and gamers?" Not anymore. The Biggest Loser is an interactive fitness program that emulates the competitive and training elements of the hit NBC show. Just like the show, your goal is to accomplish weight loss milestones through weekly training and exercise challenges. If you succeed in obtaining your weight loss goal, you’ll become the "Biggest Loser". Lose weight, win challenges and stay above the yellow line.

Sign on to Your Virtual Gym
Getting started reaching your fitness goals with The Biggest Loser is as easy as grabbing your Wii Remote. If you got the Wii Balance Board, bring that along too. These will be your tools of the trade. There's no need to worry about strapping on awkward devices or using complicated exercise equipment, you’ll be up and sweating in minutes. So, how does it work? The game includes 4 tools to reach your goal:

  • Fitness Program - This is where you establish your goals, make a plan and compete for the title of The Biggest Loser. Pick a 4, 8 or 12 week program and start sweating.
  • Health and Lifestyle Tool - In this component you’ll find encouragement and tips from former Biggest Loser contestants and trainers, and some of the best recipes from the Biggest Loser cookbooks.
  • Exercise Routines - This section allows you to select from a collection of routines that match your skill level and let you focus on every part of your body. Through it you can also create your own routine that fits your schedule and focuses on your favorite exercises.
  • Challenge Events - In Challenges you’ll take the exercises you’ve learned and put them to the test in a series of fun but competitive events against some of the former contestants that you’ve seen on The Biggest Loser show. In Single Exercises, you can find your weakest exercise and conquer it or refine your technique to get the most out of your time.

Multiplayer Support
Dedicated to helping users attain their weight loss goals by all means necessary, The Biggest Loser allows for the power moral support and companionship of having a friend at your side. To that end two players can train together, pushing each other when they need to and providing healthy competition as they engage in weekly challenges to see who really is The Biggest Loser.

As you mirror your trainer’s movements Wii will monitor your movements to help you become more efficient at each exercise. Whether its cardio, upper and lower body workouts or even yoga, you’ll learn proper form and technique in no time. Wii technology, combined with The Biggest Loser comprehensive workout and diet programs, will help you on your journey to a healthier lifestyle and to feeling great about yourself.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent game but problems with registering moves
I love the Biggest Loser television show so I was eager to purchase this game. I also have Wii Fit and EA Active and love each game for different reasons. This game is great and I was definately out of breath and sweating after completing the full body workout. My only complaint is that after working so hard my balance board and/or remote do not register all of the moves I have completed. I know that I have completed the exercises because my heart is pumping, however, it does become frustrating ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Well rounded exercise program
I like my workouts structured - it's one less thing to worry about with a busy schedule. The Biggest Loser does a fine job of managing and varying your workout schedule with 4, 8 and 12 week program options. Keeping an equal eye on daily calorie limits, it helps me manage the two major component to a healthy lifestyle - diet and exercise.

There are, however, some program quirks that you have to work around. For example, the user interface to modify your daily calories (by category, another ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good workout
Have been using this for about 3 weeks. Gives me a good workout, but use it mostly for cardio along with regular workout routine. It has a lot of recipes to try and calorie input, if you want to do the whole program, which I have not tried out.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Confusing.
I bought a bunch of fitness games for the Wii. The Biggest Loser is the most disappointing of the bunch. Bad graphics, confusing instructions and set-up. I believe this is just something NBC is hawking to make some extra $$ without going to the trouble of investing too much in game design. It's a shame, because the show is entertaining and fun. This game is not.

Get Wii Active or My Fitness Coach instead.

P.S. Bob, what were you thinking?



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Biggest loser
I love working out with the trainers. Running and using the bike is my favorite. It gives a good workout
