Question

Are those DANCING MATS videogames just as good as an aerobics class?

Answer 1

they're called dance dance revolution, and indeed that are just as good, if not better than an aerobics class. just be sure to challenge yourself on the levels. there is a workout mode you can play and it will tell you how many calories you've burned, etc.

hope this helps

Answer 2

Well if you are talking about DDR then I don't think so. They can be pretty good if you get really good at them, but even then there is a lot of stop and go. The advantage to DDR is it is more convinient to aerobics class. You are more likely to actually play a game then drive to an aerobics class. Also you can play DDR for long periods of time any time of the week, but again first you haveto get good at it.

Answer 3

the dance mats, known as ddr are actually just as good. i own one and they give you the option of a workout mode where you can enter your weight and height, and tell it how many calories you want to burn or how many pounds you want to lose and it will keep the games going until you reach your goal. it deducts the calories automatically with every step that you take.
