Get in the game at new type of fitness center

Published by Chris at 7:03 am under News  (short URL)

From desmoinesregister.com:

exercisegymXRKade, in the newly opened 7 Flags 24/7 X-Press at GreenWay Crossing in West Des Moines, is all about exercise gaming in a fun environment. Members get a workout while playing video games that involve dancing, boxing, cycling and snowboarding, in competition with people nearby or, in some games, at other XRKade locations.

Next, we tried a running-and- jumping game called “Jackie Chan Action Run.” Using a special running pad, we became Jackie Chan on the TV screen, running along the streets of Hong Kong, jumping up and sideways to avoid obstacles, and running along the length of the pad to battle dangerous-looking ninjas dropping from the sky.
