Wii Fit goes to bootcamp with Jillian Michaels

I haven't shown much enthusiasm for the Wii Fit because I've doubted its benefits, but if Jillian Michaels, hardcore fitness trainer on NBC's "The Biggest Loser," makes a game for the Wii Fit, I might have to get one.

The gals over at Fitsugar say the celebrity trainer is working with Majesco on a challenging new game called "Jillian Michaels' Fitness Ultimatum 2009,"  likely to be more fitness than play. 

If you've watched "The Biggest Loser" then you know Jillian is not one to show mercy so you better be ready mentally and physically before enrolling in her virtual bootcamp routine.

Wired says the game will have four workout routines that address weight loss, strength training, intervals, or hill climbing all with  different intensity levels, and duration times that last anywhere between 10 to 60 minutes. 

In party mode, players can even compete against each other in a time-based individual challenges or throughout the entire program which should be good for motivation.

The game is set to be released later this year during the holiday season, and in time to get rid of those extra holiday pounds before the new year.
