It's hard graft Ben, if you put the effort in. Hard to believe it's under $10 too! (Sorry for late response, youtube filtered your comment...don't know why)
There’s definitely a few newer games around, such as Les Mills Body Combat, and fitXR has changed a lot too for instance. Most of these games are still some of the best out there though. Definitely recommend Les Mills, and I challenge anyone to not break a sweat playing Oh Shape.
I really recommend putting gorilla tag in here, after like 10 minutes of playing i get super sweaty and tired. Btw cool video and amazing tip on the channel, keep it up.
Thanks. Gorilla tag came out after this video was made. Not strictly a fitness video but certainly one that you can quickly build a sweat up in! 😀 Enjoy!
well done. I got this oculus thing for my son and wondered if you could use it for exercise for us over 50s, and yourreview along with the cost was exactly what i was looking for. now to figure out how to use this thing is my next quest.
Thrill of the fight is so god damn intensive. I'm sore as hell from this lol. I got to the point where I was just slapping trying to finish the fight I was on lol.
Great video and without knowing, it seems I have already bought the toughest workout 😅 First time I played thrill of the fight I was totally sweat and I felt my arms for days 😅
Thrill of the fight is definitely on my wishlist - regarding beat saber, are you better off get the PCVR version in order to allow any song to be used? I heard stories of people getting banned for making the quest version of the game have this feature. I have it on psvr already and love it, going to rebuy just unsure about the above.
Technically I'm pretty sure it's illegal on both fronts as you're using music without permission. That aside though, if you go with pcvr version then it's either tethered or virtual desktop to connect to the quest. Some people have had latency problems with wireless when playing beat saber on the harder modes, others have been fine though. It's a personal call.

You don't say which version you're trying to use, or what you're issues are. It is available on the oculus store (for rift) and the Steam platform also. Both versions will require you to be linked to a PC to play it. If you're having an issue with one version, I'd say try the other one to see if that helps.

Seems to be a number of people with this issue. Personally I'd try the rift version from the oculus store and see if that's any better. If you still want the steam version though then try uninstalling steam, restart pc and then reinstall. If that doesn't work then this thread had a few options too. There's alot of variables here so I've covered a fair few for you. forums.oculusvr.com/community/discussion/70203/google-earth-vr-not-working-crashing-errors-solved
Yep! In development at the moment and is supposed to include multi-player support when it launches! That would be massive if it works properly! No expected release date yet though.
Thanks for the compliment, and I'm doing good. Especially with people enjoying the videos I'm making! 👍😊 (Sorry for late response, youtube filtered your comment...don't know why)
It's a good fitness focused game and great to hear that you're enjoying it Nicholas. Do you think it should be higher up the list? Would it be you're #1?
It depends on the size of your glasses, but yes you can wear glasses. The headset also comes with a glasses spacer that attaches to your facial interface to give you more room for glasses inside your headset too. You can also buy prescription lenses that go on your headset so you don't need to wear glasses! Hope that all helps 🙂
I'd like to see someone who has become fit using these ridiculous 'games'! Beat Saber would have you just flapping your arms about. Like how exactly is this tech better than exercising in reality??
It's not better, just different. I think the focus here is 'motivation'. If people are more motivated by playing games to get fit and will stick at it vs reality where they give up quicker, then these fitness games absolutely are worth it. Plenty of people online showing off their results. There's no easy 'get fit quick' scheme though. Whether it's in VR or the real world, you still need to stick at it to get results.
Have you comsidered doing a Sidequest version as well, since almost all dedicated fitness titles are on Sidequest? VR is an incredible fitness tool, and there are already quite a few dedicated fitness titles. If you are really interested in a hardcore full-body workout, check out VRWorkout as well. It's a free high intensity fitness game that goes beyond just arms and legs. th-cam.com/video/mFYzaQzsUI4/w-d-xo.html
Hi Michael. Generally I've found games on SideQuest to be not as polished as games on the main store, although there are some real gems in there (see my top 5 sidequest games video for that one). Seeing as you're the developer on VRWorkout though, and I'm all for supporting developers, especially on the SideQuest platform, I'll have to check it out! 😊
@@MyTechGearGaming Thanks for taking the time to respond. Mine is definitely not as polished as other titles. Being a solo dev is unfortunately a tradeoff but there are quite a few really well polished games. I think one you will like very much is Hitstream which is a really nice Supernatural/FitXR alternative
Thrill of the fight is no joke. I always break out in a sweat straight away haha

Fitness is what I keep telling myself I bought a Quest 2 for. This vid is super convenient. You earned a sub. 👍🏽
Thanks Tony, and welcome to the channel! 😊
Great review. As a VR Fitness enthusiast, I would now add LES MILLS and CREED right at the top of this order.
I did an updated video of this not long ago which you can check out here
th-cam.com/video/0_pAqUCQYbg/w-d-xo.html
Awesome first video! Thanks so much for sharing your insight!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Thanks bro. This is the only video that made VR fitness make sense.😎
Thanks so much! Hope you enjoy any of the games you try 🙂
Great review! Thank you
You're welcome! Enjoy! 🙂
Very helpful! Thanks!
Glad you liked it. Enjoy! 🙂
Great video, would love to see a 2022 updated version.

I absolutely love my VZ fit program and have gone all over the world on it.
nice! 😊

Thrill of the Fight and Beat Saber are a great workout combo
and Pistol Whip! Kills your legs with the amount of ducking and diving you have to do. 😊

i'm 55 year old woman and i play beat saber
Thrill of the fight is so god damn intensive. I'm sore as hell from this lol. I got to the point where I was just slapping trying to finish the fight I was on lol.
🤣😂 it is a great game! Enjoy! 😊
Great video and without knowing, it seems I have already bought the toughest workout 😅 First time I played thrill of the fight I was totally sweat and I felt my arms for days 😅
Totf is a great game. Love it. Completely knackering too when you put the effort in.
I'm even able to bend down now 🤣

I’m surprised they haven’t added leg sensors to make lower body exercise.
There games can still tell if you're squatting from the height of the headset
Thanks for the review mate; keep them coming. Congrats & liked!
Thanks, glad you liked it. These games are certainly going to help me battle the mince pie calories over Christmas! 😁

And Synth Rider? It looks very similar to audio trip though
And Synth Riders is pretty well supported wth new music so far. So much fun.
Love cardio mode on audio trip. Gives you a really good work out.
Thanks so much man
You're welcome! 😊
Excellent review
Thanks, and welcome to the channel! 😊
Hi Buddy can you put a video or give information how to play google earth VR on Quest 2?. I am really struggling for this. Thanks 😊

No problem, and welcome to the channel! :)
thrill of the fight is the best fitness game in quest 2.
It is a great game. Can't wait for TOTF 2!
@@MyTechGearGaming there’s gonna be a TOFT 2!?
Yep! In development at the moment and is supposed to include multi-player support when it launches! That would be massive if it works properly! No expected release date yet though.
nice video :) how are you?

This guy is underrated
Thanks Trevin! 😊
Have to disagree with supernatural. The coaches, boxing and fitness focus make it a different animal. Of course the light workouts are easy.
It's a good fitness focused game and great to hear that you're enjoying it Nicholas. Do you think it should be higher up the list? Would it be you're #1?
Can you wear glasses using the Oculus?
