Often while doing Wii Fit yoga, you will see a message that encourages you to combine a yoga pose with another activity. At first, I thought this meant you could do two yoga poses back to back. The only problem was that I could not figure out how to make that happen.
When I saw the same question on my earlier Wii Fit Yoga post, I decided to investigate.
Today, after I finished the warrior pose, a message popped up saying that I should combine the Warrior pose with the lunge. I kept thinking the lunge was a type of yoga pose, perhaps one I hadn’t unlocked.
However, the lunge is in located in the strength training category. The lunge and the warrior pose work on the same areas, so therefore your trainer lets you know they are good exercises to do together. This is good to know, however, I wish the Wii Fit provided a way to make this happen without having to go back to the main menu.
All in all, I do enjoy knowing which strength training exercises and yoga poses are nice combinations. It’s something I had not thought about until now.

I am sooo disappointed to hear this. I got my Wii fit last night. And I was so excited when I woke-up this morning to create my own yoga and strength training regimes. But I could not figure out how to do it. Now you tell me it cannot be done. Very disappointing!

have to admit it is the biggest disapointment because you have to keep stopping to change the exercise. they should offer it in favorites

No, No, NO!!! After a week with my Wii Fit, I’m definitely feeling results; but am SO Frustrated by not being able to do several poses in succession. I’ve pushed every button on the remote trying to get it to go from the pose I’ve completed to the one it says makes a good complement. I’m SO MAD to find out this isn’t possible! I’d also love to be able to skip over the ranking section, so I can keep my burn going. I try to keep moving while on the platform between exercises, but that often sets off the warning to use other objects or people to help stabilize yourself.

I completely agree. I found this blog because I was searching for a way to combine exercises without going back to the menu each time. I’m also disappointed it can’y be dpne!

Hi everyone!
Thank you for posting!
I can relate to you what you’re saying–as good as the Wii is, there SHOULD be a way to do various exercises together (especially when it is telling you which ones are a good ‘fit’)!
I do enjoy other parts of the Wii Fit, but wish they would have done this particular part differently.
Thank you, everyone, for posting, I started this blog as a hobby, and didn’t realize how many people I had the Wii Fit and the Wii in common with!

Soooo… now we know the problem what is being done to address it? If this is something that everyone wants Wii programmers need to come up with an update that allows us to do so. Anyone know if this is going to happen?
