Trying to find a new cardiovascular machine? I have a great suggestion that might put some fun back into your workouts and bring you back to feeling like a little kid. Try the Sony Playstation. Your probably thinking, aren’t video games part of the obesity problem in America. Well, yes it is but certain games like Dance Dance Revolution can provide a great workout.

According to the researchers from the University of Wisconsin, they had 25 male and female subjects between the ages of 12-25, play the game on easy, medium and advanced modes. They monitored the number of calories that each subject burned. The adults burned about 11 calories per minute on difficult mode (which is about 330 calories per 30 minutes).

So instead of investing into a $1,000 piece of cardiovascular equipment, you can get away with spending just under $200 for your home cardiovascular machine. Which also occupies less space and when you hit the nightclub it can make you more flexible and prepared!
