When you try out EA Sports Active for the first time you will see it is like night and day compared to the Wii Fit for a number of reasons.

# 1 - The Wii Fit was created with oriental workouts and bodies in mind. The Wii Active was created for westerners and the workouts and body types are in line with people in the United States.

# 2 - The Wii Fit has workout music that sounds old-fashioned. EA Sport's Active has modernized and energized the music for the new Wii Active.

# 3 - Leg straps now replace the old balance board you had to use with the Wii Fit. No more trying to balance on a flimsy board. You are now free to move about!

In addition to the above points, the Wii Active comes with personal trainer workouts and you can actually see how many calories you are burning in "real time" as you workout. How's that for motivation?

Plus, your personal trainer will give you a unique workout every time you get on to exercise.

You can also completely customize your workout routine, so it fits your needs and exact body type.

Are you a big fan of The Biggest Loser? How about having Jillian be your personal trainer? She has now teamed up with EA Sport's Active to give you that opportunity. Have Jillian train you from your own home through the Wii Active.

If you are still on the fence trying to decide if the Wii Active is actually better than the Wii Fit... Don't just sit there... try it out and see for yourself!
