Just FYI Best Buy is currently giving away UFC Undisputed 2010 free when you buy UFC Personal Trainer. I took advantage of that deal.

I wouldn't call UFC Personal Trainer a game. It's a fitness system. This is not a gimmick to get MMA fans to open their wallets. The program was developed and certified by the National Academy of Sports Medicine based on MMA training techniques. I started the 30 day strength training program and had an excellent workout. I'm a sergeant in the USMC and I've had numerous physical training sessions. The exercises I performed in UFC Trainer were very familiar as they are the same basic exercises Marines use to stay in shape. Pushups, squats, and lunges are proven and tested exercises. If you are already fit I would suggest picking up some light weight dumbbells for the standing upper body workouts such as upright rows and the Arnold press.

The program features various modes to help you get in shape. "Workout mode" has several pre-made...Read more

Customer Video Review Length:: 3:35 Mins

Updated 7/5/11 I have been training 20 years and I have to say this 30 day endurance on advanced is definitely a great test. To get a little extra burn a few 5 minute sessions of heavybag and mitt work. I got about 10 pauses today in my workout hopefully they fix this it auto pauses even if you are entirely green and standing still. If anyone was worried about back problems and doing ground routines this is very forgiving with technique found this out when I was getting tired. I wish they made the pushups register like you do jumprope it would be much better for fast pushups. Nothing worse than non registering reps while you are really tired.

Updated 7/1/11 Calorie burning estimator needs some tuning. 600+ strikes 60,000+ points on heavybag in 5 minutes gave 13-53 calories burned. But 3 minutes of very light much slower paced mitt work of maybe 40 strikes gave 99-300+ calories burned.

Updated 6/30/11 Uploaded short video. 5 stars for both...Read more

This review is from: UFC Personal Trainer (Video Game)
I'm a big fan of the UFC and a big fan of working out, so this title seemed like a natural fit for me. I've successfully completed P90X and GSP's excellent RushFit, so I have reference as to what a good workout routine is and I entered UFC Trainer with certain expectations, neither of which is fully met with this title, which certainly feels like a rough draft of a game that could've used 3 months of additional development time. At first, the sheer variety of workout options seems rather nice and varied. The variety is quickly wasted upon hearing your trainer repeat phrase after phrase, such as, "let's get the body ready for a great workout," followed 3 seconds later by "let's get the body ready for a great workout." Much more variety in the dialogue is a no brainer. How the developers let this slide is surprisingly Bush League game development since it really bites into the experience.

More variety in warm-up exercises would have been welcome, such as having the CPU...Read more
