First off, let me deal with an issue I've seen reported and that I did in fact encounter.
The monitors that come with the game are not overly responsive sometimes, I found the problem to be the position of the sensor, especially the leg one is crucial, too high or low on the thigh and it won't register correctly. I had a problem with this on Day 1. Day 2 how ever positioning the leg sensor about a hand width above the top of my knee cap and no problem what so ever, Every squat, jump and foot step I did was flawless with in the game play.
Others problems seemed like they had to do more with the actual setup of the wii hardware, eg: the sensor bar, Our sensor bar sensitivity is set quite high, whether that makes a difference I don't know but the USB stick plugged in and the sensors that came with Active 2 personal trainer worked out of the box.
As far as the workouts go, I love the one I'm currently doing, yes I've only just completed day 2 of the 3 week medium program. It's an excellent program and yes I was a little apprehensive at first about picking the medium over the easy, however now I think if I had gone for easy it may have been a little too easy for me personally.
While the on line communication to EAs servers are slow for loading and saving data, if you have signed-up for the on line options, It is nice to be able to sit down at the computer and monitor your progress later. It is a shame that EA has lost money on this one and are possibly no longer continuing with it.
The motivation for exercise has to come from you, but I love the game and look forward to developing my own workouts as I progress.
