Video game fitness program expanded statewide
In America, a state plan may give an unexpected boost to a fitness program in local schools. West Virginia, which has one of the nation’s worst obesity problems, plans to expand its video game dance project next month to the state’s 157 middle schools.
8 of Wood County’s 27 schools use the computer game Dance Dance Revolution as part of their physical fitness programs. The program uses computer animated characters and a floor pad to encourage players to dance along with the beat, matching foot movements to a series of directional arrows scrolling across the screen. All of the local programs are funded through grants or other monies. Looks like fun!
