(recommended), you\u2019ll get two straps that you can put your JoyCons in, and then wrap them around your arm and leg so the game can sense your movements.\u00a0 You can also buy this game digitally, but if you don\u2019t have the straps, you can still play the game but they\u2019ll limit you on what exercises you can do and what achievements you\u2019ll earn.\u00a0 Unfortunately I only got the digital version for review.\u00a0 But luckily I had straps from Ring Fit Adventures and Nintendo Switch Sports, so I could still try out this one somewhat.<\/p>\n<p>After completing your profile, you can choose one of three main options.\u00a0 You can do a custom workout where you edit which exercises you\u2019ll do.\u00a0 There are also preset programs that you can stick to for a month or so that focus on certain goals.\u00a0 And finally there are daily challenges where you do a single exercise for a given amount of days, like planks and such.\u00a0 There are four trainers, each focusing on a certain type of exercise, like muscle building, cardio, or balance.\u00a0 The game will give you a score based on how much movement, or no movement, you have during the exercises.\u00a0 Aside from having a few more options, I didn\u2019t notice much difference if you do or don\u2019t use the straps.\u00a0 You can earn all sorts of medals and trophies and achievements either way.<\/p>\n<p>Even though graphics in these kinds of games don\u2019t really matter, the visuals look like they could\u2019ve been done on a PS2.\u00a0 While I recommend going to a gym if you really want to get results, if you are a beginner who can\u2019t go to a gym or has no home equipment, then this game is fine.\u00a0 But the best Switch fitness game is still Ring Fit Adventures.<\/p>\n<p><a
