Training on Wii Fit is divided into four categories: aerobic exercise, muscle workouts, yoga poses, and balance games.[13] The activities provide a core workout, emphasising controlled movements rather than overexertion. Activities include:
* Yoga Poses
Deep Breathing, Half-Moon, Warrior, Tree, Sun Salutation, Standing Knee, Palm Tree, Chair, Triangle, Downward-Facing Dog, King Of The Dance, Cobra, Bridge, Crocodile Twist, Shoulder Stand
* Muscle Workouts
Single Leg Extension, Press-Up and Side Stand, Torso and Waist Twists, Jackknife, Lunge, Rowing Squat, Single Leg twist, Sideways Leg Lift, Parallel Stretch, Tricep Extension, Arm and Leg Lift, Single Arm Stand, Press-Up Challenge, Jackknife Challenge, Stretch Challenge
* Aerobic exercise
o Jogging, in two formats: fixed distance, and fixed time.
o Step aerobics - Basic, Plus & Free
o Hula Hoop- Basic and super.
o Jogging 1 & 2 Player, Round the 3D Island of Wiifity
o Rhythm boxing - similar to step aerobics but including the Wii Remote and Nunchuk to throw punches.
* Balance games
o Ski jumping
o Ski and snowboard slaloms.
o Heading Soccer balls.
o Table tilt - Where the player shifts their balance to get balls into holes.
o Tightrope tension - The player must cross a tightrope avoiding the snapjaws.
o Balance Bubble - The player attempts to navigate down a river in a bubble without bursting it on the sides.
o Penguin slide - The player has to catch fish whilst balanced on a piece of ice.
o Zazen - The player must remain motionless whilst looking at a flame.
Some of the games allow the player to watch TV while getting instructions or rhythm through the Wii Remote speaker.
New activities can be unlocked by gaining 'Fit Cash', which is accumulated in a 'Piggy'. Each minute of Fit Cash is equal to the number of minutes doing an activity rather than the number of minutes of overall gameplay. At certain stages, new yoga poses or muscle workouts are unlocked based on the total time spent working out. Being the best at an activity with a 100% score, or playing an activity a certain number of times unlocks more rigorous versions of that activity.
Wii Fit also allows a player to keep track of activities outside of the game, which are then added on to the player's activity log, but not included in the daily exercise time. These are divided into three categories:
* Light - guitar, piano, stretching.
* Medium - cleaning, gardening, walking.
* Heavy - sports such as soccer, tennis, swimming.
The time allotted to these are given a multiplier to show how they should affect the player. Light activities are multiplied by 0.5, making them half as effective as medium activities, while Heavy activities are multiplied by 2.
