I’m Hiromi Yuzuki, how are you all doing today, when you tend to lack exercise due to corona sickness? I mainly work remotely, and I mainly move by car, so my physical strength is reduced. When I went up the stairs at a local supermarket, I felt short of breath and felt a sense of crisis, so I decided to exercise, but I just put it off. While doing that, my waist was chubby …
That’s why I started a full-scale diet from the beginning of December. What’s more, the YouTube program “GadgetouchAs a project. Taro Matsumura, a semi-regular program and IT journalist, decided the rules that gadget lovers are likely to continue, saying, “We are over 40 and we need to exercise soon! Moreover, corona fatness is serious.”

1. Use your Apple Watch and try to close the entire activity ring.
2. Share fitness data with everyone and get motivated.
There is an app called “Fitness” on the iPhone. (Display on Apple Watch is “Activity”)
▲ The fitness app is the default app for iPhone and Apple Watch. It automatically records daily activities.
▲ Click here for Apple Watch activities. The three-colored ring shows the goal.
Red → “Move” that records the total calories burned per day
Green → “Exercise” to record training and walking
Light blue → “Stand” that records that you stand up once an hour
You must clear the goal of the day to close all the rings. Goals can be set freely, green exercise is 10 to 60 minutes, light blue stand is 6 to 12 times, and red moving is 10 kcal. I have a move goal of 240kcal, but Taro Matsumura has 500kcal and Linkman has 300kcal. (By the way, if you enter your weight and height, Apple Watch will suggest the appropriate number.)
The method of sharing fitness data is as follows.
▲ Open the fitness app on iPhone → Open the lower right tab “Share” → Tap the contact icon on the upper right → Tap “+” on the upper right → Select the destination and click “Send”
In addition, Apple Watch users registered as contacts will have their names appear in the list as sharing candidates. When you send a share request, the other person’s Apple Watch and iPhone will be notified, and if you approve, you will be able to see the progress of each other’s goals. In addition, since workout information is also shared, a notification may be sent in the evening saying “Taro Matsumura has finished walking”. “Oh, I’m not doing it …!” And often start exercising …
Well, my goal is to achieve 30 minutes of exercise a day. First of all, you have to clear this. I wonder if it’s possible to go to the gym while the stay home is recommended … So I bought the Nintendo Switch itself. It was sold by lottery at one time, but now it seems to be stable, and it arrived the next day by online order.
The fitness game “Ring Fit Adventure” was adopted as the first exercise. A circular controller called a ring controller and a leg band are a set, and it is used by attaching the key controller of the Nintendo Switch body. The ring controller is equipped with a high-precision “power sensor” that recognizes movement by pushing or pulling. In the leg band, the key control is fixed with the thigh of the left foot, and the gyro sensor and accelerometer recognize the movement of the foot.
In Ring Fit Adventure, the character runs when you step on the spot while holding the ring controller. Push down to jump. Push it forward to break things and get items. Squat when crouching on the jumping platform. It also helped to relieve stress … #GDTH @gadgetouch #Training review pic.twitter.com/h4ulbK6PTp

For those who want to lose weight with Nintendo Switch and Ring Fit Adventure ????♀️ What kind of movement is it? How do you use Ringcon? I’m often asked, so … it’s like this! It is recommended to pull a yoga mat underneath.@gadgetouch #GDTH https://t.co/P5oT5TDZ3u pic.twitter.com/l9s2YxEAJH

The main is “adventure mode”, and you will clear the stage while exercising with a focus on muscle training. It is full of elements that motivate you, such as interacting with characters and defeating monsters.
I don’t need game elements, I want to exercise hard! For those who say, we recommend the customized mode. You can combine training according to the part you want to train, such as “tummy”, “foot”, and “arm”, and training by genre such as running and yoga. My recommendation is “yoga”. Isn’t it something you do slowly? Unexpectedly, muscles that are not normally used are stimulated, so muscle pain the next day is essential …
During training, you will be taught the correct form and it will be pointed out that the form will be disturbed. Actually, this is quite accurate. I was really surprised that the game console had reached such a level. At first, I didn’t know the correct form of squat, but thanks to the indication, I gradually understood it, and now I can get the correct form without software.
Exercise intensity can be determined by the heart rate measured when you clear the stage in adventure mode. If your heart rate is not so high and it is judged to be “light exercise”, you may want to increase your intensity a little.
If you are asked “Is your current exercise intensity suitable for you” or “Can you do your best?” When you start the game, change your exercise intensity.
However, the ring control does not become heavy, so the number of trainings changes. If you reduce the exercise intensity, the squat will end in about 10 times, and if you maximize the exercise intensity, it will be set to 50 times.
When doing Ring Fit Adventure, I select and record “fitness game” in the exercise of Apple Watch.
▲ Apple Watch has a proper fitness game.
Next, the second element that we are incorporating into exercise is “Fit Boxing 2”. I got advice from seniors who have experienced Ring Fit Adventure first, “I’m pretty tired of using this software alone,” and added it … This is the correct answer! Certainly, Ring Fit Adventure becomes more monotonous as you get used to it. By combining these two software, I can continue without getting bored.
Fit Boxing 2 is a game in which you hold a key controller in both hands and perform boxing in the form of a rhythm game. A popular voice actor will act as a trainer and will teach you the correct form while cheering with a wonderful voice. As an image, I feel like I’m taking a boxer size class at the gym. I do it for about 10 to 20 minutes at a time, but even in the middle of winter, I have a lot of sweating exercise. You can exercise according to the number of Western music, so the tension will increase.
You’ll get bored with just home exercises and Ring Fit Adventure! The movement of “Fit Boxing 2” that I started after being recommended is like this ????♀️ Because I use my whole body more than I expected, my heart rate goes up and I feel like I’m burning! It’s highly mobile because you can do it with just the main unit ☺️ #GDTH @gadgetouch https://t.co/Ytc8WaeXs7 pic.twitter.com/1J0ZAQ6DVT

Introduced a gadget to make it easier to “hit” with a key controller. This is very easy to use and recommended.

Since I am a super night type, I exercise from around 23:00 to achieve 30 minutes of exercise and take a bath when I sweat! I adopted the flow.
▲ I chose boxing here.I think fitness games are fine, but to make the records easier to understand.
Well, like this, I continued training every day combining Apple Watch and Nintendo Switch. According to the rules at the beginning of the project, the moving ring is completely closed for 2 months!
▲ The figure of the moving ring fully closed.
What happened to the result …
● Weight is -2kg
● Body fat is -3.5%
● Built-in fat score -2
● Muscle mass + 2kg
* Comparison was made on a body composition analyzer before and 2 months after the start of the diet.
A tremendous change! A perfect fit dress is slippery in …! It’s only 2kg, but I’m impressed by the fact that I’ve lost fat, gained muscle, and continued to train every day in my life, which is the best feeling I’ve ever had.
The points of success are summarized below.
● Motivated UP in combination with Apple Watch
I set the goal of exercising more than 30 minutes a day as a must, so I was able to get into the habit. I was motivated by sharing it with my friends.
● Set a time and exercise before going to bed!
I was able to get into the habit of training from around 23:00 because I wanted to close the exercise ring by the end of today.
● Change into training wear at home and improve your motivation
Prepare your favorite wear and change clothes for training. I could change my mood at home and sweat without hesitation.
● You can only do it at home!Completed in the game
With the Nintendo Switch, you don’t have to go to the gym, you can take a bath as soon as you’re done, you only have to change clothes once, and you can sleep when you’re tired! And, the annoyance is halved.
● Create a menu that you will never get tired of with multiple software
A combination of Fitboxing, which allows you to punch in rhythm, and Ring Fit Adventure, which allows you to train your muscles. When I was having a hard time, I was able to choose “which one seems to be more fun”, so I could continue without getting bored.
● Leave a proof of your hard work in a tweet
I decided on a hashtag to keep my motivation, and I did something good for me! If you think so, tweet with “#GDTH” which means “Good Things.”
Today’s menu. I couldn’t do it even once, but I was able to do it before I knew it! I’m still in a good posture, but ???? There are 2 types of squats, which is a menu mixed with yoga, which is quite tough. I’ve grown compared to when I wasn’t exercising at all! !!#GDTH Good Things. @gadgetouch pic.twitter.com/at6VPgOuAZ

I also drank protein in combination.
As I continued until the beginning of February, my core was considerably strengthened, and I was praised for my improved walking posture, and it was said that I became slimmer. happy!
Not only me, but Linkman, who was sharing data on the Apple Watch, lost about 2 kg. Now, let’s share data with a limited number of viewers and race! Let’s meet for encouragement! We also started the project.
By the way, even with the Nintendo Switch alone, you can keep a record of exercise in Ring Fit Adventure, and you can see the total calories burned, but because there is always an Apple Watch on the left wrist, “I’m doing my best today!” I’m doing my best! “And I feel that it led to success.
Training is currently ongoing. I hated muscle training, but I could do it, so I’m sure you can do it. Let’s do our best together, even if you are starting now!
