Gold's Gym trainer comments on exergaming, fails to see irony in his negative comments

“Those games are good for getting kids active these days, especially because obesity is becoming such a big issue in North America … but for a person who has specific goals, it’s not the best workout. A couple of my clients have a Wii Fit and they’ll do some stretching or yoga on it, but it’s not their workout. They still come in to the gym or go for a run outside.” - Cody Innes, a trainer at Gold’s Gym in Calgary

I’m willing to bet that Mr. Innes has no idea that there are two Gold’s Gym games on the Wii. I bet corporate won’t be happy to hear things like this when they’re trying to make a name for themselves in the exergaming market! Thanks to KnucklesSonic for the heads up!
