Active video games, also known as "exergames," are not the perfect solution to the nation's sedentary ways, but they can play a role in getting some people to be more active.Not in a million years.
Michigan State University's Wei Peng reviewed published research of studies of these games and says that most of the AVGs provide only "light-to-moderate" intensity physical activity.
And that, she says, is not nearly as good as what she calls "real-life exercise."
"For those not engaging in real-life exercise, this may be a good step toward this," said Peng, an assistant professor of telecommunication, information studies and media.
"Eventually the goal is to help them get somewhat active and maybe move to real-life exercise."
People are too damned lazy.
Besides, exercise is useless or worse. Training is what you need to do.
