Anyone else pull a muscle?

and i'm not making ***** jokes...

2nd say I had the wii, I pulled a muscle in my arm, which effected all my side and back, putting me in a hell of alot of pain. Next day, arm is still killing, so out of the 4 days i've had it.. only 2 of which i've been able to play.

Worst thing is, i'm dying to play it.

Anyone else gave themselves an injury?

Edit: Jesus, even the correct term for male genitalia is censored..

Nope, but I did lift quite a few weight randomly one day and my arm hurt for about 6 days afterwards. If you're gonna exercise excessively, make sure you gradually build up your schedule

Yeah, I only read afterwards the warning about warming up first, doing a few stretches etc..

you don't actually have to make a full 360 swing in wii sports you know.

no but its good exercise.

I think it may have been bowling that did the most damage..

hmm how often do you exersise? cause sometimes I do something simplr and end up in pain from lack of exersise

I did twice when playing wii sports the first week. Probably because I don't get much physical movement

Reminds me that last night I was at a movie theater arcade, and I played a FPS game for the first time in I don't know how long and I felt like my arm was going to fall off, I actually started shooting with my left for a little after that. I personally don't think I'll have any problems playing a Wii (Er, think Wii sports more than anything else actually.) since I'm already pretty athletic anyways.

no but i was playing tennis and jacked up my elbow for 10 minutes

ow

I don't get much exercise, very rarely go out to get any.. I think that may be the problem.

...no. No I did not

I killed my elbow playing Boxing, though i never lose.

Only physical damage I got from the wii is I got hit in the elbow by the batter in a game of wii sports baseball. It hurt for like 20 minutes, and that was about it.

become ambidextrous like me and use your non-dominant hand if the other one gets tired

I may have to give it a try, although its more the arm than the hand.

well that's what I meant, it's the same principle. It may be uncomftorble or weird at first but anyone can gain control/strength in both hands with enough practice.


either that or lift some weights =P

Haha I did the same awhile back. Guess I was really out of shape then as I haven't done it since.

I read a bunch of Americans complaining about muscle aches and stuff.

GOOD! It means you're getting some exercise!

I'm often aching like hell after playing Wii Sports Boxing for ages and that means you've done your muscles good.

If they didn't want to have to move, they should have bought a 360 or something instead.

I pulled my groin once.












Seriously

EDIT: OH while playing wii? Then no. But I still have.

No it doesn't, actually. It means you've done your muscles arthritis.

Rule #1 of using the Wii - If it hurts, you're doing it wrong.
