Maya deserves to be in your home!

One sentence synopsis: This game is like an exercise dvd, only it constantly changes to meet your goals. I'm really irritated that Gamespot hasn't reviewed this. I know it's not a game, but this is an incredibly useful resource to have in your home. Maya is a personal trainer, and with equipment in your home she takes you through a workout. The workouts are tiring, but never mor difficult than you can handle. Difficulty can be raised and lowered whenever you want. Maya also has you do physical assessments, allowing you to chart your progress. Because there's a clock and calender on the console, Maya knows when you've skipped a workout, and you honestly feel guilty about it. On top of that there are meal schedules based upon caloric intake. I haven't made the meals, but I still find it useful to look at because it helps you to get a grip on portion sizes. The graphics are solid, although I wish Maya had different outfits for some variety. The room she works out in changes, but her clothes don't. Odd, that. I do not want this game to be a flash in the pan, I want people to buy it so that it to gets better over time. It's inexpensive and we could all be in better shape. Go buy it!
