I literally cannot do the 20+ squats it tells me to do when I pick it as an attack
like it's not about willpower my legs literally burn so bad that they give out and I can't even stand up anymore

Set the level down a bit so the squat quantity is only 15 or so then.

I don't want to lower the difficulty
the reps for everything else feels doable, it's literally just the squat attack that's too much

Well, then just keep at it as you're able, and make a new thread next Friday. It does get easier.

I already didn't play it for days because I felt lazy
I just finished a boss fight and I put on anime music and got through it and I felt like I was about to throw up at the end
I've been lying here for like 20 minutes trying to recover
heart rate depends on how well your heart muscle can pump blood with oxygen attached to the blood cells through your body
either you have a big heart or it is well trained or you don't actually exercise to the extreme
it also depends on your age, older people obviously have weaker hearts with lower heart rate limit
the chair pose and the warrior pose are basically squat holds aren't they?
It's funny. I never beat Ring Fit. Not because I stopped exercising; the opposite. Ring Fit got me into a routine so now I run and lift six days a week. Ironically, Ring Fit would actually interfere with my real exercise schedule. I'd like to go back and finish it some day.
I don't like going outside and the game gives me an actual reason and structure to exercise which I need
I can't just exercise for its own sake
>the chair pose and the warrior pose are basically squat holds aren't they?
Chair Pose, yes, but there are three Warrior poses, one is close to a squat.
But the fights against Allegra always have a squat hold.
Oh, and don't be afraid to recalibrate the joy con by pressing the '+' button. Sometimes good squats don't register due to gyro drift.
You eventually unlock 10 slots at a time.
It is so you keep swapping in the new exercises with higher attack values. It is really just a way to encourage you to keep changing them out.
Same reason for different enemy colors.
It is a guided exercise routine that allows you to do some other exercise instead of what the game pushes, at the cost of doing more reps.
You'll also get wide squat at 'overhead' squat variants at some point.
I mean I'm not trying to minmax my attacks based on the stats I'm trying to get a workout, but it's kind of forcing me to change out the old stuff even if it's different

There are some slogs, but it feeds you stuff pretty quickly, and once you get the skill tree (character level 40) you get to pick out your preferred new exercises as you prefer.

When I did the main story, I just did 20-30 minutes of 'active' time per day and called it good.
It took around a year to clear world 69. Just keep at it.
The squats will be as nothing to you in a month.
>20 minutes of cardio >burn 83 calories
Kek, at least you're trying to improve over time. Cuz right now that's fricking pointless.
the calorie counter has to be bullshit
I felt like I was going to throw up after I beat the boss today

Not really, exercise is actually a pretty bad way to burn calories overall. If you're working some sort of physical labor job where you're constantly active for hours and hours at a time, it adds up fast, but just 20 or 30 minutes of a workout doesn't do much for weight loss. When you consider that your average human burns 2000-2500 calories a day just by being alive, 100-200 calories here and there really doesn't contribute much to burning calories. It is, however, good for your overall health, so you should keep at it.

I feel you, I'm in the same boat there. Intermittent fasting has worked wonders for me if you can handle being hungry for a while by drinking water and keeping yourself distracted. I've lost like 80 pounds since I started doing that, no calorie counting required.

It just takes some willpower, man. The longer you do it, the easier it gets, too. Once you start seeing and feeling the difference with your own body, it gets even easier to maintain the weight loss.
Also, consider getting some Lugol's iodine and taking a couple drops of it in some water every day. A lot of people are iodine-deficient, which your body needs to properly function, but with the prominence of sea salts nowadays, most iodized salts are found in junk food like chips. When your body is craving stuff like that, it's not the chips your body wants, it's the iodine in the salt, so taking iodine helps to mitigate that.

Keep getting there, those abs exercises will do wonders if you keep at it, especially stuff like leg raises, planks and knee-to-chest, at least from my experience. Still, you should also mind your diet and definitely cut as many sugary drinks as you can, just cutting sodas alone can do wonders.

I guess it depends on the angle of your back and if you keep your feet off the ground, myself I always do them with my back at a 45° angle, it's also good workout for your upper legs and your arms.

Not necessarily, but it's highly recommended so you actually make some effort on continuously lifting your legs. I think the leg raises even recommend you to do the same.

Yeah, that happens, I stopped playing at the start of December and when I resumed, my legs hurt for the next two days, so it's only a matter of my body getting used to the routine again. It didn't help that I resumed my playthrough on two levels that required a lot of squats.
fattie
Keep at it until world 69.
I'm only like 155 pounds
Well, then keep at it, and consider some more cardio. Your heart should be able to handle that just fine unless you were vaxxed.
I'm day 5 but it's been a few days since I last played it
my legs cannot handle all the jogging in place and squats
i literally just can't do it
You can't do it *now*. One week from now it will no longer be a problem, but you gotta do it every day.

Bro I'm fat as frick at 250lbs and my heart goes 120bps with extreme excercise (which I never do)
mine goes to nearly 180
ZAMN.
Maybe it has to do with skinnier people probably have less muscle real estate and vein thickness?

What a waste of time.
Laugh and grow fat.
Did you have a squat hold as part of the fight? Those are killer.
the chair pose and the warrior pose are basically squat holds aren't they?

I just unlocked the first warrior pose
I don't know what exercises I should be setting in my menu
why can't I just pick all of them

What intensity? 30?

>can only play 30 minutes of ringfit
>can play 3 hours of dancing games
Why am I like this? Do I have autism?
No, you just have a lot of stamina, but targetting specific parts of the body can be painful until your body gets used to the reps.
