Only gamers would make a video on having excercised for 2 weeks.

The critically acclaimed RPG is back for more

I actually played the game for the first time yesterday. I exercise regularly anyways and I got the game more out of curiosity and actually mentally derided it a little bit beforehand, thinking it would just be a gimmick to get out-of-shape gamers to move at least a little bit. But, having tried it myself now, I can say: It really is a serious workout!!

Between Ring Fit and Pokemon Go, I am a ripped indestructible goddess.

The idea that John is so handsome despite never exercising is upsetting

I had no idea John was a Dad. That’s even more cool.

I’ve been playing Ring Fit everyday since I got it and it’s great. I’m 500 some days in and my Ring Con doesn’t even press to 100 anymore (hopefully they’ll restock replacements soon). I’ve gone through the story all 3 times and really hope we’ll get a sequel or more DLC. I think an exercise rogue-lite could be interesting!

As someone who is quite fit, I do have to say Ring Fit really saved my physique last year. I mean I did gain a lot of weight, but it allowed me to keep muscle mass and, more importantly, functionality. I play on the highest diff and I'm currently at level 300-and-something, but now I mostly just use the game in conjunction with my gym workouts to keep mobility and activity through the day. The custom lists are a god-send

I love this game! A few things though. In between courses I do 20 crunches 20 squats and have started doing push ups and weight lifts as well. I suggest you start doing this. This game is great for getting people into fitness but I feel needs just a bit more to really start showing results. With that being said, I love RFA and am very happy I got this and grateful for the impact it has had on my well being ever since I started it up.

I laughed way too hard at Zion’s introduction voice and then Jon saying “that’s him, classic Zion”

I really want to get this now. Been gradually losing weight, but too self conscious to run outside. I like how it gamifies the exercise, and I do love a good rpg and/or rhythm game

I'm on RingFit every day for 1.5 months except for a couple missed days...between 8-15 minutes, level 22. I either bike or walk long enough to burn 500 calories every day (missed a couple days) and I eat a full day's calories (about 2050 for me right now). I had a few days where I ate too much food but I've still lost about 15 pounds. My posture is better. My muscle tone is changing for the better. My flexibility is better. It helps, it's fun, it works.

This was a very validating listen. For the last 2 weeks and some odd, I've been cutting back my caloric intake and playing Ring Fit everyday. And I feel great! I've already lost 8 lbs and play on Level 30 without having a problem playing 20 minutes a day. This game has given me more motivation than ever to improve my health and lose weight.

This is one of the best exclusives on the Switch imo and while I don't play it every day it is the game that finally managed to get me into doing some excercise which is quite impressive for me personally.

I'm so glad this game exists. It's my main mode of exercise and I'm feeling great after having kept with it for the most part of a year.

Jon: “I’m a daddy” All of us thirsty gamers: Yeah you are 🤤

I'll have to give this a go! I'm trying to get fitter, and this looks like it'll help!

I've been really impressed with Ring Fit. I fortunately bought it before the pandemic, finally took it out of the box after the pandemic started and the game got hard to find, and it was an absolute godsend when everything shut down and other forms of exercise were removed from the equation. It's neither the most comprehensive workout nor the most compelling RPG you can find, and I usually try to add some cardio on the side. That said, it is a real workout, and a real game, and it balances the various things it tries to do brilliantly. I genuinely hope they keep it going and make a sequel eventually, but there's enough content there that you won't run out of stuff to do anytime soon.

"Feet" - Jon Cartright Edit: Sorry if it was Alex who said it, I often get their voices mixed up

I've lost 5 kilos, so like 10 pounds, with just a bit of diet adjustment and ring fit every other day. This is in around month and a half and I feel more active, more alert

I have been playing this for 149 days as of this posting

I've been playing it consistently since April 2020 and the difference in my mood and physique has been fantastic. Really glad to see you guys enjoy it and I hope you do continue to stick with it! :)

Listening to your journeys, well done gents. It's something to hear, how it keeps you going, but also challenging too

I love videos like this when three of you talking!

Bought it almost a month ago, and been able to play a bit every day ever since, but been doing only 12 difficulty. Do feel inspired to finally try to increase the difficulty level.

If you miss a day, bring your Ringcon with you, you can still get in some exercise without the TV.

Loved this chat guys. Making me want to get back into this game.

Just ordered it online because I am too lazy to go to the store.

I'm playing it now for 3 weeks and play it 3 times a week. I'm really overweight but don't have any problems with my body when I play this game... but yeah the level(s) where you have to squat and hold them for like 20-30 times are just evil... I felt that in my legs for around 4 days. I can't remember on which intensity I started but currently I'm at intensity 12 and still feel very good. What I realized after 2 weeks is that my breathing got much better. I'm at chapter 8 or 9 right now and still have really much fun playing and exercising. My body stats are: Height: 6'6" (1,97m) Weight: 308lbs (140kg) Age: 31 (31 duh) Edit: I'm always aiming to burn at least 200 calories but at the moment it's around 250.

Weight loss happens in the kitchen, getting in shape happens in the gym...great advice I will always remember from when I started my weight loss journey about 6 years ago (obviously any type of exercise will help put you in a caloric defecit but if you eat like garbage you will 100% go back into a surplus unless you're running a marathon everyday or have an extremely fast metabolism)

I’ve been playing Ring Fit for a year now. I feel great. Keep pushing yourself because you’re all sexy boys. 😋

I'm not necessarily looking to "workout". I just don't have the time or the emotional drive for that gym life. But I am interested in shedding some pounds (while also changing my diet as well of course). So would people recommend this for that more casual "i just want to be healthier" lifestyle?

One of the best games I've ever played. Still playing it almost every day.

I’ve been doing one level each day before work, (where I’m on my feet for at least 8 to 9 hours, zipping around and stocking up a busy shop) for about a month now out of about 3 after 14 months or furlough. I have far more energy throughout the day than I would have without the exercise, have lost all the lockdown weight and know the exercises well enough to do a quick workout without turning the switch on if I’m short on time. Definitely in my top 3 switch experiences.

Love this kind of experimental videos

8:46 “the overachiever here!” I’d wager he’s just an achiever for having done all 14 days lmao

Know what? I have a friend who also has RFA and I think I'll ask them to do this kind of challenge, sounds like the perfect way to keep us motivated. Thanks for the inspiration, it's always a joy listening to you three :)

You guys gave me motivation

I live close the the equator, I thought you might say 100 Fahrenheit, 86 is like daily for me

I think Ring Fit Adventure is great and I’ve been on and off with it since launch. It would have been so much better with Miiverse to compete better with friends. The in game rankings just don’t quite cut it on their own and finding outside communities is tough.

I'm on New Game+ and have beaten the game (credits rolled) in January after basically and entire year playing at least five times a week, but the last's month wave of cold weather (global warming is hitting the southern hemisphere differently right now) made me skip it all for basically three weeks. Thank you for posting this video, and reinforcing that I need to get back at it ASAP! Don't stop guys! Keep going!

I really should get back to playing this.

I was looking at this for awhile but you guys convinced me and it’s on the way

Watching this motivated me to get the game as I need to get back into shape

Literally just bought the game today because of this video. Best workout of my life, thanks guys

I’m already a somewhat active person but this video really convinced me to pick up the game again lol. It’s not a bad work out, especially for cardio! And like they say any exercise is better then none.

Looking great you guys.

Just ordered myself this, hoping its good fun, great video!

I bought this at the start of the pandemic but found it difficult to get the space to play as we only really have the living room and bedroom. Luckily now that we’re allowed out a bit more I’m getting more space to myself and as I’m still not comfortable going back to the gym for my weight training I’m using this to get me eased back into everything and I’m really enjoying it. I like that it encourages you to use lots of different types of exercise rather than just focus on one thing and does feel like it improves overall fitness as well as being a fun game.

Ive got over 245 hrs in ring fit and ive still got story left. There r 23 worlds then u unlock the "extra levels" where u play through all 23 again but with a different story and then you get the master trials where you play through everything again. A ton of content in this game.

I have lost 20 kilos by playing ring fit and while being in calorie deficit while having some health complications. All it takes is will. We can do it! Let's go comrades!

I got this game a while ago, managed to play it once, felt excited about playing it regularly and then proceeded to break multiple ribs the next day. I hope I get to play it regularly soon.

Nintendo Life: What's a pound in American terms? Me: A pound. XD

Watching this video after having a mirror present is a kick up the arse 😂 Gonna gave this a go and log the progress!

I wanted to start jogging soon and this game seems to be a good alternative if the weather is bad outside.

For Jon, some days were tough, some days he barely made it; but he did it every day, because of course he did! because it is written: thou mayn’t stoppeth the Jon.

Ok, so I bought Ring Fit Adventure while watching this video. You did it.

I love Ring Fit! Great motivation to exercise. Drageaux for Smash!

It was near 1am when this was uploaded. Got the itch to get up and play Ring Fit again and I couldn’t relax until I did, thanks guys for reminding me to play lol

I played for around 10+ minutes every day this year up until June, when illness knocked me back. Back on it again now as of August 1st.

I still need to get my hands on this one. But I would love to see them bring back the classic "Dance Aerobics" from NES that would work with something like the ring fit ring.

They neeed to release a new adventure that's building on everything that's good in RFA! I'm betting that will happen sooner or later since there's no new DLC and the first game sold really well.

Ah, that explains the reps required for those wide squats. Surprised it started him at 5. I got this game a few months ago and been playing nearly everyday with only Thursday off (for family night). It just feels really good to play and its fun. I'm also eating healthier so I'll have more energy and doing other types of exercise like weight lifting and tread running outside of Adventure and custom. I still need to play more of the rhythm game..

Was already thinking about getting Ring Fit, but this video sealed the deal for me. Now I just gotta get my Joy-Cons fixed...

the squat mode also helps with sore knees. I can't really run without knee pain, so that's my go to

In terms of weight gain/loss I would suggest checking once per week IF anything BUT I will say this, it's not about weight it's about body. What I mean by that is simply this, fat weighs less than muscle. So you might think you're gaining weight but really you're losing fat and gaining muscle. Be aware of that because sometimes the scales can lie to you and make you think you're gaining fat weight when you aren't! Otherwise this makes me want to buy ring fit adventure right now and I still don't have a darn switch!! Weighting (notice the pun) on the OLED!! Perhaps the more beautiful screen will melt away extra fat!!

Thank you for reminding me to play today

Welp, this is the video I needed... just dug out my barely used ring con! Thanks for the push lol

Need more games like this maybe gym type

I think I will buy it now

So I used Ring Fit to get into fitness and a start a routine to work out. I have did all the mission and side quests in the main campaign and in the post game but I haven't touched it in a while as I have been doing physio workout with a trainer

I've done Ring Fit Adventure for a year and a half and I've moved on to harder exercises. I say RFA is the perfect first step to a rode of fitness.

Good for you. I just 100% the game this week, it took me 1.5 years of almost daily play (210+ active hours).

Just got mine but kinda curious, does your sweat get all over the joy-con? 🤔 Asking in case I should get a protective cover for the controller but even then, I dunno if that would affect the sensors

I bought RFA at the beginning of the pandemic. I had to spend $300 for it, and I'm not proud of that for several reasons, but if I question Nintendo for not keeping the game and peripheries stocked better... Anywho, I'm on day 119 now, and it's been a great workout or warmup now that I'm going back to the gym.

Heeeeello there fit people

This goes to show that they are epic gamers

Jon is a daddy for sure 😀

How long did you guys play each day?

I 100%ed the game (collected everything, S Rank on everything in the story mode and beat every level) so I set myself the goal of maxing out my cash and level but then I dropped off the game so I keep trying to motivate myself to keep playing!

The running part is a part of the game I am worried about as I have floor boards which shake the house if you walk heavily on them, very tempted to get the game however.

I bought this and have yet to really use it aside from trying it out after purchasing it

Lol you guys are hilarious I take my switch outside with a 24 “ screen 😉

Exercise and nutrition are two sides of the same coin. Doing one will still make you feel better over time, but doing a reasonable amount of both will do wonders.

Can't out train your fork but good on you three for getting fitter!

good job boys

86f?! boy, I am working out on 113f days over here in Arizona. You just got to get used to it.

that right Nintendo life KZfaq get workout so good for you.

You guys are gonna be looking like SpawnWave in no time! 😁❤🧡💛

Maybe i should do this...tomorrow

I'm one of those Switch-less chumps... But if I had a Switch I'd definitely give this a shot, looks surprisingly fun.

"You have to fight feet with feet"

Hey, you guys beat me, I was only able to play it for two days 😳

86? Try 90-100 degrees😂 yah good luck with that heat

I’d want to play this but I live on a 2nd floor

I think bringing Tipp from ring fit to smash is not a bad idea. Maybe even bring ring and the default protagonist.

Do a one month update vid!

3:08 Drugs, man 😔

dis is lotso fun

Is that Hotel Mario Music at 30:00?
