Best Dance Game to Lose Weight

The best Wii U dance game for losing weight is Just Dance 4, with the Wii U Game pad you have so many special features with this game.

The game pad counts the number of Kcals you burn and this is displayed in the upper left hand of the screen. It's an average number that's likely to be understated for heavier players and overstated for lighter players.

 The best way to lose weight in the Just Dance 4 game is in the Just Sweat mode. This lets you play several songs in a row for a set amount of time, either 10 minutes (burning around 50 Kcals), 25 minutes (about 100 Kcals), or 45 minutes (about 200 Kcals). Instead of choosing individual songs to work out to, you choose from the following four genres of music:

Aerobics in Space (Dynamic Fitness Steps / 80's Pop Music)
Sweat Around the World (Latin Dance Practice / World Music)
Electro Body Combat (Cardio Fighting Exercise / Electro Music)
Cheerleader's Boot Camp (Extreme Training / Punk Rock Music)




The routines start out with a slower warm up routine and end with a cool down routine. Your energy level from song to song is tracked in real time through a running graph at the top of the page, and will determine whether the next song is "COOL" or "INTENSE", effective customizing your workout based on your individual level of energy. That they're using a little artificial intelligence to give you a personalized workout is a nice improvement that's definitely more sophisticated than in previous versions of Just Dance.

The number of Kcals you burn is displayed in the upper left hand of the screen. Take the calories with a grain of salt, as it's an average number that's likely to be understated for heavier players and overstated for lighter players. I would have liked to see the ability to measure weight using the Balance Board for a more precise calorie calculation.

Take a look at this video in the Just Sweat mode, this is the best dance game to help you lose weight.
