I have tried many times and have failed many times to go to the gym and do cardio for reasonable amounts of time. I do go there for strength training but could never bring myself to go for only cardio. I am about 130 pounds overweight and I knew I needed it.
Walking did not work for me as I wear leg braces and usually I might need to sit down to rest my leg. Also I found it way to time consuming and boring after already boring and hard day of work, and cooking two meals.
So I bought VR Headset. I found few posts that mention that Beat Saber actually burns similar amounts of calories that playing Tennis, so I figured, I might not hit that intensity at first, but it will be fun to lose weight and also have fun at the same time. At the end of the day, I am right now following an advice that workouts that you select should be fun. And what's more fun than playing an amazing video game, holding two sabers and cutting stuff with virtual lightsabers.
Fingers crossed that it will actually aid my progress towards losing 130 pounds.
Soon I am also planning to buy Kettlebells so it would be easier for me to workout at home as my biggest problem is usually showing up at the gym.
