When you hear about using Nintendo Switch to lose weight, everyone will think of sports games, such as fitness rings, boxing, etc., and recently a netizen is very different. After the game “Dark Soul” was finally broken in 3 months, the weight also lost about 6.8 kg, and he still did it in the gym outside, which was powerful enough.
Foreign netizens lost 6.8 kg while exercising and playing “Dark Soul” for three months
Recently, a ChipNdale123 netizen shared his successful weight loss story of more than 400+ miles in 3 months in the Reddit forum. Unlike others, he played the game “Dark Souls” with a stepper.
Friends who are familiar with the “Dark Souls” series should know that this game is very difficult. It takes a lot of concentration to play just sitting on the sofa. You must be completely familiar with the game content, rhythm, and control before you can pass each level. , which means that the difficulty can be said to explode after adding fitness.
He wanted to challenge himself, so he set the stepper at a maximum speed of 4.0 and an altitude of 5.0, and only slowed down when the character was using the campfire and using the menu screen. Don’t deny, it’s like hell at first, very painful, but after training and moving forward, it will be like an incarnation of immortality.
ChipNdale123 put the Nintendo Switch directly on the stepper. This Star Trac model is quite large, so it won’t shake too much during exercise. The most important thing to get used to is how to hold the controller stably when swinging the arm. , he once accidentally threw the Switch controller as a weapon in the game during fierce battles several times.
Another person asked where did he work out? ChipNdale123 said it was a gym outside, not at home, and then added: “Will this be weird?” ChipNdale123 emphasized that no one would care, most people watch Netflix movies when exercising, and he is playing games, so passing by Everyone gave him a thumbs up.
In the past, I have also seen people playing games and exercising at the same time in the gym, but most of them are sitting on top of bicycles. This is the first time using a stepper. Regardless of the difficulty of the game “Dark Souls”, it is only for two purposes. It’s hard, and it must be easy to stop moving halfway through the game.
In three months, I lost a total of 15 pounds, about 6.8 kg. He did not specifically mention whether it was matched with diet control. I guess it should be, because it is impossible to lose so fast and so much just by exercising.
In any case, this method is actually not bad. For those who can’t keep going to the gym, you might as well try it out. Buy a new game and set a target exercise to play until you break the level to see how much you can lose weight, and it’s best to find “Dark Souls” is a very difficult game in itself, and it is too small to break the level.
