 Don't Bother with My Fitness Coach 2 Feb 26, 2010
If you loved the original My Fitness Coach and were hoping for more of the same, forget it. My Fitness Coach 2 is a major letdown. There's no fitness test to get you started and have the game tailor exercise routines for you. The exercises are only about 15 minutes and way too easy. There's no yoga. You don't even enter your weight to see any progress. I have been using the original version for years and was so excited that this new one was coming out. Very disappointing and not worth a penny. The old My Fitness Coach is so much better and suits me just fine!

Complete waste of money Feb 23, 2010
My wife and I had the original MFC and when we saw MFC2 we were excited thinking they took the old one and added some new things... WRONG! I can barely get warmed up doing the workout programs and the constant stopping between workouts is just annoying. The best part of the first MFC was the fact it was a cardio workout so you actually were burning more calories and toning because you were going at it full force with short rests towards the end. The MFC2 game is nothing more the Wii fit with out the balance games and added nutrition information that is readily available online. If you played the original like my wife and I stay away from this game. You will be extremely disappointed and just wasting money. Since you have a balance board you'd have Wii Fit or Wii Fit Plus and so you already have what this game offers for quality of work out.
To end on a positive the graphics were extremely improved from the first.

 Wii Fitness Coach 2 Feb 14, 2010
This game is being used by the entire family and is great for focusing on areas of need.
JUST WHAT I NEEDED Feb 04, 2010
I am so thrilled with this product. I got my husband a Wii for Christmas and began seeing different products that could be used with it. I decided to try this for me. Well, in less than a month, I have lost over nine pounds. For me, that ain't easy. And, it is so much fun, you don't realize that it is work. Of course, I am cutting back on the food intake, but it's not that hard, because it makes me want to. For the first time in a long time, I am doing something for me and enjoying it. The side effect, energy, and a better feeling of self being. A marvel for me. My hubby says that he can't believe the change in my outlook. Playing the games with him is a lot of fun too. Yeah.

 Are the screen shots correct?? Feb 01, 2010
I am evaluating My Fitness Coach 2...the screen shots on this site are not the same as my game?? Regardless..my initial reaction was "urgh!! waste of money!"...(I love Wii Fit Plus!)..however, after a couple of weeks, I have adapted the program in MFC to go along with my workout with the Wii FP.
Pros:** There are different workouts, after a round of squats (which are no place to be found in the WFP)..my legs and rear were sore for days. This tells me those areas are not getting the "mean" workout I was looking for with the WFP.
**The challenge sections are very challenging, to me this is good.
**You can set different profiles to target different workouts ie: tummy, arms, legs, OR yoga/pilates OR weight loss. Therefore, depending on the day, you merely click on the workout you favor.
**It moves faster from exercise to exercise without all the chatter of the WFP
Cons: **The trainers can be a little annoying (funny how these people we do not even know can annoy us?)
**There is no countdown clock, I like to know how long I have worked out ..on the screen like my fit bank in WFP (I know I can look at my watch, but I love my fit bank in the WFP and am spoiled by it)
**At times, I do not feel I am doing enough reps in a particular exercise, that is ..I just get started and we are moving to something else
**I am not sure how great it really picks up the balance board and remote? I can be doing exactly as instructed and it will tell me otherwise..frustrating.
I cant yet speak on the meals and nutrition section as I did not really purchase it for those features.
Summary: It is not as good as the WFP, however, I have adapted a few decent routines to go along with my WFP and feel I am actually targeting more areas (ie: legs/rear). Would I recommend spending the additional money on it? hmmm...I think I am glad I did, as it is giving me a bit more variety..I have been using the WFP for almost 40 days and am/was really ready for few changes..
