I can see that impact on your feet can definitely cause a lot of pain sometimes, and many out there would probably say that we are really damaging our health. I don't know all the facts, though.
Has anyone else out there had any major health issues or injuries because of DDR? Are these health issues all that serious? Are we killing ourselves? What is your opinion? |
I think it can be either: A: your daily exercise, B: a fun video game, or C: a competition to see who's the best at the game.

I'm sorry to be the one to say this, but everybody should just go the gym if they want to lose weight. I don't see why everyone is depending on a video game to lose wieght. If you're too afraid to do it alone then get a friend to go with you.
I just thought I'd say this. And after working out and such you will much,much healthier.

a good idea to work on the upper body is attach some 5-10 pound weights to you arms or shoulders and maybe 5 pounds to your legs and go have fun.
