With 155 exercises and a variety of menu options, ExerBeat makes working out easy and fun!

There are even Party Fitness exercises for the kids!
- Easy and accessible workouts – Players can enjoy each exercise by following easy-to-understand instructions as they move their body and Wii Remote™ to the rhythm.

Players can even create a personal workout program instantly by specifying “problem areas” to work on, and setting the length of their workouts and workout goals.

There’s even a special set of kid-oriented exercises in Party Fitness to get the youngest of players involved!
