Remember that baseball player who wanted to slim down his Mii and wound up losing 25 pounds in real life? The Wall Street Journal chronicled his success story in a video.

San Diego Padres pitcher Heath Bell bought Wii Fit for his 11-year-old daughter, originally, but hijacked the game for himself as part of his off-season training routine. Bell tells the Journal that the game makes him a better ballplayer with its balance-focused exercises.
Iām just happy to have an alternative to senior citizens and the Wii Fit girl as motivation to play the game. Also, Bellās story inspires me to keep an eye out for a āpro trainingā mode in Wii Fit Plus.
