How new workout technology might make exercise more fun — and help keep a New Year's resolution

Americans who are making New Year’s resolutions may struggle to keep them as early as next week. Many have said they want to focus on health and well-being, but sticking to a new exercise regime can be a challenge. A new workout technology aims to keep users involved by making exercise fun.

When he said, “You saved my life.” The hug said it all. I just felt that. It feels good when u help someone be better in their life

Supernatural saved my mental health during the pandemic. Still use it regularly and its the only exercise I've ever adhered to

How awesome to dedicate time and effort to make something that causes someone to walk up to you, full of emotion, and say "you saved my life"? Nothing wrong with trying to have fun with something most people hate. In fact, those who get creative and have fun with whatever life throws at them tend to live a flourishing life.

i love supernatural but it's good to know that it is a subscription based app. You have to pay for the app monthly or annually. There are other VR apps that are not subscription based Beat Saber, Thrill of the Fight, Audio Trip, etc.

Lift weights…this is ok to burn a few cals, but you are losing muscle mass as I type…did I mention to lift weights

swimming is the best exercise, albeit incompatible, so far, with such tech. but great start to normalizing VR use.

Oculus VR change my fitness life 🧬 supernatural is cool but "Les mill - body combat " is the best one 💪🏻 along with thrill of the fight 1 and 2 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Still Meta shouldn't have been allowed to purchase the VR game Supernatural and it's game developers, and the FTC should've blocked it's sale.. That title would've been much helpful to the world if it was multi-patform and not exclusive to Meta Quest headsets.

GO OUTSIDE. RUN OUTSIDE. MOVE OUTSIDE.

Exercise isn't supposed to be fun

Pshhhh...unreal! So basically, Mr. Mike doesn't have ANY willpower or ANY real motivation to speak of...that is unless he puts on his mask and pretends to smash things flying through the air with his imaginary light sabers 😂 what a role model he is 😂 😂 😂

Exercise isn’t always supposed to be “fun.” It’s work and time that you want to put in. If not, that’s on you. It’s always better to have a short and long term goal of what you want, which helps build the consistency. VR won’t be able to develop that.
