Make Wii Fit U part of your New Year’s resolution with a free 31-day trial, only available until January 31st!

Have you resolved to make 2014 a year of healthy choices? If so,Wii Fit U for Wii U could be just what you’re looking for! With 77 exercises to get your heart pumping, the ability to work out completely TV-free and the optional Fit Meter at your side to track your activity throughout the day, Wii Fit U is the total exercise package.

Maintaining your motivation after the first few weeks of the New Year can be tough, but that’s where Wii Fit U’s range of 77 different exercises comes in, helping to keep you challenged and entertained after January’s long gone. Race down a luge course that’ll really work your core, soar skyward with well-timed squats, jog around a sunny island while it’s dark and frosty outside… it’s completely up to you!

Slotting regular exercise into a busy life can often be tricky too, and needing to hog the TV can make it even harder. That’s why Wii Fit U lets you work out away from the TV with the Wii U GamePad’s built-in screen – find a space , pick up the GamePad and step on the balance board to get started! 73 out of the included 77 exercises can be played totally TV-free, and you can also weigh yourself using the GamePad and keep your results to yourself until you’re ready to shout about them!

Wii Fit U doesn’t just liberate your workout from the TV: it takes it out into the whole world. With the optional Fit Meter at your side, you can track your activity wherever you are, count your steps, measure calories burned and much more. Whether you’re pounding the pavement or taking the stairs instead of the lift, the Fit Meter tracks it, and you can transfer the data to Wii Fit U when you get home with the push of a button. If you’ve set yourself a calorie goal, Wii Fit U will even recommend exercises to get you to your daily target, for a complete workout experience.

If you've played a previous game in the Wii Fit series, it's easy to transfer your progress over to Wii Fit U. After that, you can take your exercise to the next level in all-new workouts, plus many returning favourites, and share your successes with other players around the world. With 77 exercises, the ability to exercise away from the TV, and much more, Wii Fit U offers countless new ways to help you get active and stay active.
