Hello, it's me, the idiot who didn't realize the pun behind Guru Andma's name until yesterday. How are you all. Also, gently caress the Dreadmill.

I want to like this a lot but I honestly feel Wii fit U was better (despite the ring being a better peripheral than the balance board). I think it's mostly the character designs and story and whatever. I don't want to be assaulted by puns and have to fight a big boring dragon every world. The idea of making fitness a game where you level up is excellent but the game part just isn't that good. I'd just do the individual exercises in sets but the customisation is rather slim, you can't even go for a run around some of the beautiful outside sections as a warm up. Also it'd be great if you could use your mii instead of having to be generic gym guy/gal. I feel you're honestly better off lifting weights for fifteen minutes, then doing some push ups/sit ups, rather than powering this up.

First time I tried Dreadmill it absolutely slaughtered me and I had to take like upwards of five minutes to catch my breath. But i've kept at playing RFA in general and it doesn't knock me out for nearly so long now. I won the two dreadmill challenges i've found so far, which are honestly utter bastard challenges whether you do well at them or not. The first one you'll find is don't miss any coins, the second is score at least 6500 while never standing still at any point. A trick you can use if you need a quick rest is to jump and hover - the conveyor belt's pushback doesn't apply to you while you're in mid air so you can stand still for a moment and rest your legs. Not too long but it's there. This even works for the second challenge, it won't count you as standing still while airborne even if you're not moving your legs. Just make sure to start running again before you hit the ground. If you want to outright cheat you can hit the + button to pause the game and catch a breather that way. I don't think it's too bad in this case because dreadmill honestly is a pretty tough workout, so stay mindful of your limits. Once you're more used to the exercise you can come back at it again later and give it a genuine try.

Running around and skipping over monsters is how I get 150 kcal burned in 30 minutes of "activity". Why the gently caress is Mario fat? And now I can go back to the first worlds and kill everything in a couple of hits.

Plus he apparently contends in the olympics and plays tennis regularly. Dude is probably pretty fit. I mean, I know that's a seriouspost answer to a non-serious question, but still.

I hit the first Dreadmill challenge at the end of a long session and I petered out quite quickly. I guess the difficulty level is making it harder to control my speed, as well.

Yo is there a trick to make the leg strap fit right? Mine loves to shimmy down my leg while I jog in place, or get stretched when I do a squat or something and then immediately slide down my leg, unless I have that thing feeling like a tourniquet lol. I'm tempted to cut little "belt holes" into my workout pants and just thread the strap through them.

MachuPikacchu posted:I guess the difficulty level is making it harder to control my speed, as well. I think the game's difficulty setting doesn't affect Dreadmill since it's running. The only difficulty there I think is the Basic and Advanced modes, and i'm not sure that affects running speed so much as the patterns/speed of the stuff that comes out of the background.

Blackbelt Bobman posted:I found it easiest to wear shorts and put the strap under my shorts, directly on the skin. Then it stopped slipping. Yeah, if I'm wearing my normal pants or shorts I have issues with it sliding down my leg too. If I'm in my leggings, it says in place perfectly. I really think the issue is the cloth moving around when your legs move is making the strap move too. I think since my leggings don't really shift and just stretch instead (like Bobman's skin) it doesn't mess with the strap in the same way. So either try something skin tight, or take off your pants!

I just strap it down so hard that it's probably going to cut off my circulation and make me pass out at some point. But at least it stays in place.

I am honestly worried about snapping the ring? It feels like it's giving more than it used to. Is this concern unfounded

I remember they talked about the ring being made of some fiberglass reinforced material that's also used on planes or ships or something. And that they did all kinds of stress testing before launch. Also if anyone had managed to break one, you know gaming sites would have been tripping over each other to report it.

SelenicMartian posted:Starting with level 290 you no longer get skill points. Oh that's awesome. I was hoping there was something like that later on, I had to drop a bunch of my favorite moves because they became too weak to be useful. Will be nice to pick them back up once their power is equalized.

I can't get planks to register for me to save my life. I've tried shifting my hips/legs every way I can think of, but apparently it's not good enough unless I raise my leg back to rest on the couch. And obviously, that is not going to do me any good. It sucks too, because I'm trying to work on my core and upper body and that's one of the best ways I've found to do it. I'm still going through the worlds and getting exercises though, so maybe I'll get something else just as good.

I unlocked rank 2 planks on Sunday, and I used them extensively during last night's session. It hurts. It hurts so good.

I can get Planks to register, though they're a bit beyond me at the moment. Once i'm more in shape i'll go after them more. Boat Pose, however, utterly refuses to register at all. Doesn't help I don't really have enough room to do it, but it just... won't Do The Thing In The Game.

No hyperbole, whenever I put the ring behind my head with my legs lifted like that and try to bend backwards, my back hits the floor. I can't maintain a horizontal position with only my butt touching the floor. Anyone who can is a wizard.

Nintendo needs to loving ship more of these, the fact it's over $250 on eBay is absurd. Kind of a perfect storm: The game wasn't initially hugely popular. Suddenly picks up steam after Christmas, then goes insane after the Coronavirus stuff since people want to work out away from other people. And finally, no one wants a sweaty used one. Cmon guys make more bendy rings

I was at a Gamestop in St. Louis the day before yesterday and they had three sitting on the shelves. It might be worth it to check out some local places, because I think my local Walmart has a couple too, but I haven't gone there in the past few weeks.

I reached the Smack Back gym for the first time. I got a perfect. After seeing so many complaints about the sidequest to get a perfect I'm both very sad that I perfected it my first try and very anxious to have to do that again.
