An idea for different forms of resistance.

Now, i've used resistance bands before with Power 90, I find it much easier to have the different levels of resistance, than to just "fold over and step on" to create more resistance.
Also, there may be people who would rather use free weights as a form of resistance. So my thought was that EA could create something like the leg strap, but for the hand. A glove that has a little pocket so that you have more freedom to focus on the form of your lifting.
Although i'm not quite sure how it could be manufactured to ensure a comfortable fit, but it surely beats the idea of having to make sure you're holding the remote at all times.|||My husband and I found free weights with a strap to hold them on to your hand. Instead of holding the weights in the palm of the hand, I strap them around my palm so that they rest on the outside of my hand, giving me the ability to hold the remote and nunchuck in my hand. Not only do I use this method, but I also use wrist weights to further increase the weight I'm using.|||I too use free weights that wrap around my wrist - leaving my hand free to hold the nunchuck and wiimote. I also use the resistance band provided to guide my movements for more control.|||


..........free weights that wrap around my wrist ............

Would you be able to share any links to something like this. I've never heard of these before. Is it some form of new technology? Or are you speaking of simple wrist and ankle type weights. With the velcro straps?|||Dumbbells for Wii: www.riiflex.com - coming soon.|||Do you have a link/name of the free weights that still let you hold the remote?
Those dumbbell attachments for the remote look great. Any idea if they will be sold in stores?|||I have weighted gloves I got from beachbody.com that work great because it lets you hold the remote and you can use them for the boxing exercises as well.However they're just under a pound each but you can get heavier ones from pretty much anywhere they sell workout equipment.|||
