WMUR, NH
The brainchild of Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto, Wii Fit is a sturdy board slightly larger than a bathroom scale, about an inch high, that communicates with the Wii console wirelessly. Players step onto the board, which senses their movements, balance, and center of gravity. Included software features dozens of activities based on strength training, aerobics, and yoga, as well as a calendar that tracks goals such as weight loss or improved flexibility. Players employ the board differently depending on the activity, standing on it to do a tree pose in yoga, for instance, or stepping on and off it for aerobics. Interactive Elegance As with the Wii console, players initially create avatars [or can adapt their existing avatar], entering details about age, gender, and weight, and obtaining a body mass index measurement. Wii Fit then sets some basic balancing tests to give a general indication of fitness level, indicated by your Wii Fit age. The bigger the gap between your actual age and your Wii Fit age, the less in shape you are.

So let’s face it: ageing is a fact of life – it happens to all of us. But how can we make the most of this privilege of a long life? How can we age successfully?
“Successful ageing” is not a new term.
