[quote][i]Originally posted by Kyle T[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by Steve[/i] I disagree that walking around looking for pokemon will have anything other than an un-measurable amount of effect on someones health. Sorry if that opinion angers you so much you feel the need to use profanity. [/quote] Generally, maintaining a moderate heartrate for a longer period is better than short bursts of intense workout with a very high heart rate. The fitter you get, the faster you need to walk or the more intense your workout needs to get in order to achieve that "moderate heartrate" so just walking round for an hour hunting pokemon will have diminishing returns on somebody already quite fit. For your typical gamer/nerd or just normal inactive person - having motivation and a reason to go walking for hours is a very good thing. This isn't new to Pokemon either, has this "fitbit" fad not hit your social group yet? Old people, fatties, etc are just walking round to get their "steps up" everyday and meet arbitrary goals. Adding Pokemon to these arbitrary goals is a genius way of applying to people who otherwise would not be bothered, but we'll see if it stands the test of time. [/quote]
