Had to rep you. :wow:

I bought it and worked out with it today. I didn't even want to stop. The best part is how time flies. I went for 45 minutes. AND as someone who has trained at a boxing gym twice in his life, this shyt gave me better feedback on some of my punches than coaches I've had. :dahell: I can't do it everyday cuz I gotta justify all this money I spend at the gym but it's nice for the days I don't want to go to the gym.

I feel bad, I know I shouldn't do it everyday. Even with the games schedule it has days off where you shouldnt do a daily workout. That being said
I'm on a 17 day exercise streak, there's only 1 day in March I didn't use it. I'm at about 80,000 punches. I should hit 100,000 before the end of March. I'm going for a million but I know that'll take months and I'm fine with that.

I am not going to use it every single day until a million but I'm kinda curious about a 30 day streak. It won't hurt, even taking it lightly will be OK as you should do some sort of physical activity everyday, but if you want to go hard this definitely gives you the option to do so.

Yo I been using this for awhile and I have a question. Is there anyway to track progress by punch type? I'd like to see if I'm getting better with my hooks. If not that's a major feature it's lacking. Also, these songs are getting repetitive.

First thing I did when I turned the game on was go into music settings and then turn the volume to 0.

I've never heard a song on this game. :yeshrug:

As far as i know there aren't any individual metrics. I'd like that feature too. I'm curious how many dodges and ducks I've done cause now doing body squats is easy as hell. I accept it for what it is though.

What polar heart monitor do you have?
I think that would be useful for tracking calories burned while lifting or doing other activities I can't easily track

I rock the m400 watch.

You don't need the watch though.

You can cop and h7 Bluetooth heartrate monitor on ebay far like $25 and wear it and use your smart phone with the polar beat app to track all your workouts.

I alternate between using my phone and my watch. It depends which battery is higher. Sometimes my watch batter is low so I use my phone. Sometimes my phone is low so I use my watch.

Thread got me curious too... We got a Switch for my youngest son, so I may cop the fitness boxing game and use it on my off days from the gym.
