Debate: Dance Dance Revolution and Weight Loss? Good for obesity or not?

[ash ketchup dood]

its good for weight loss if you play on heavy >_> i think ive gained weight playing though hahaha XD but im like really skinny so its probably a good thing.

if you're going to lose weight try playing sakura and like paranoia survivor max oni :D

ddr is good for a good health. :P i got a japanese ps2 and japanese versions of the game 4th mix, 5th mix, max, max2, and extreme versions. plus, the dance mats.

i agree doing da light mode stuff doesn't help a lot, its the heavy stuff that starts chipping off the weight.

besides all that it's the only form of excersize that i enjoy doing. it keeps me from gaining weight. :D i've lost 40-50 lbs from ddr. i've seen some others loose more weight though. and this guy used to play all the time at my arcade, he was really skinney...then he stopped playing and i notced he got chubbier. o_O;

Wow same for me...cept I lost about 35-40 pounds...I'm getting a new steel mat for my birthday so I'm pumped about that. I have DDR MAX and MAX2, such awesome games. Personally I think Burning Heat is my favorite song...so awesome...

If you want to lose weight! Do Max 300 about 3 times in a row and your legs will break apart. Max Unlimited may be faster, but it's nowhere as tiring on the legs. Personally I love doing the Maxx songs. Max 300, Max unlimited, Max (period), and Legend of Max. I don't always pass em though.

Paranoia songs never seem to be horribly difficult to me. I got an "A" on paranoia KCET on my first try...fin

I HATE trip machine songs though...they just sound annoying and the beats are always irregular. Want a challenge? Do bag on 1x speed...I can only barely pass it, let alone get a good grade.

BOO ya!

lets make a ddr score bragging thread :D

the soft pads just weren't cut out cause they slid all over the place. and when ur done with the song the pads moved a couple feet over. hahaha. the arcade pads are more realiable for extreme usage like max300.

score bragging? uhmmmmm, i can AA a lotta stuff. ^_^;

 

[samu]

Score braggin'~

I can get Max300 down to 1 miss :3

Can get to the freeze on Max300 on Trick Oni~! :D

Passed all of the Extra Stages (but no AA's on them.. yet.)

Passed DDRMAX2 Encore Stage~ (Kakumei 3X Reverse Dark~ 1 Miss = Automatic Fail)

Can AA most of the songs under 9 feet!

1 AAA~ www.Blonde Girl Light

if i remembered correctly...the ddr max2 encore stage is kakumei reverse, dark, 1.5x and if u miss one step u fail. well this was at the arcade...maybe u got home version?

DDR requires fast thinking, aswell as fast movements. I hardly think and overwieght person will be able to keep up... But, if you are just looking to loose 5 or 10 pounds, then its a great way. I go to my areas arcaded about 3 times a week, people playing DDR are usually you avarage DDR freaks. I have never witnessed someone tryign to loose wieght on it.

 

[John Denver]

I've gotten a MESS of double AA's so they don't mean much anymore...AAA's are the only thingsthat impress me now...

My best AAA was on Burning heat on heavy...it was so good...my favorite song

nope, its the arcade~!

and it's 3x on encore stage, kakumei's scroll rate on 3x is equal/similar to maxx unlimited's on 1.5x, or something like that..
