Best VR Fitness Games
It’s wintertime and the time of year when many of us hibernate because of the weather. It’s also the time of year when many of us develop that winter tire because of lack of exercise. If you’re not careful, that winter tire could turn into an all seasonal tire!
You could enjoy the outdoor activities that winter provides, like downhill or cross-country skiing. Or you could pony down for a gym membership. Both options are great but expensive.
If you are looking to pinch pennies, exercising at home is an option. The challenge there is finding something that doesn’t become boring. You could find the answer with VR fitness games. They tend to be inexpensive and come in different flavors. And each game offers different modes of plays and challenges to keep things fresh.
Here is a list of some of the top VR games that help keep your heart pumping. Some are subscription based, but there are quite a few that are a onetime purchase. Some games are fitness focused and some are more rhythm based, but don’t let that fool you. Rhythm games like Pistol Whip and Synth Riders can really give you a good workout, especially if you play at a level that pushes you.
