Body Test
In the Body Test, you use the Wii Balance Board to measure
your center of balance, BMI, and body control. Based on
these results, you can also determine your Wii Fit Age.
Doing a Body Test
1
Start the Body Test
First, turn on the Wii Balance Board and wait to stand on it until
you're instructed to do so. Once it's ready, stand on the balance board
and let it recognize your body. Enter the weight of the clothes you
are wearing: light, heavy, or other (manually enter the weight of your
clothes). Then follow the steps below.
2
Center of Balance and BMI
Stand on the balance board with
your feet spread equally apart
and your body straight. Wii Fit will
then check the balance of your
posture and your BMI. Once the
measurement is complete, you will
be able to see where your center of
balance is located and what your
BMI is. You can also check your
weight if you'd like to see it.
Press during the Body Test to access the pause menu.
For players under 20 years of age:
BMI is a measurement typically used to assess fitness in adults,
but Wii Fit was created so that players from ages 2-19 can get
a BMI measurement as well. However, it's important to understand
that there are differences in growth rates, so this data is for
information only. If your height changes, it will affect your BMI,
so please keep your User Settings (see page 12) up-to-date and
make updates in the Edit Profile section regularly.
The BMI categories (underweight, normal, overweight, and obese)
displayed by Wii Fit may be overestimated for people who have
a heavy or muscular build, and may be underestimated for people
who have a lighter build, or who are older adults.

Your center of balance is
represented by the red dot.
Try to keep the red dot in the
center of the balance board.
3
Body Control
Your body control is measured using two randomly selected balance
tests. Simply perform the tests by following the on-screen instructions.
The first time
you do the Body
Test, you will only
do the Basic
Balance Test.
4
Wii Fit Age Announcement
Your Wii Fit Age will be calculated based
on your balance-test results, taking into
consideration your actual age. Your fitness
goals may include working to lower your
Wii Fit Age.
5
Stamp Your Calendar
Point at today's date and press
yourself a stamp and end the test.
Fitness Tip: A Useful Weighing Method
After you've weighed yourself, why not try it again while holding
something? By observing how much the weight differs, you can
find out how much whatever you're holding weighs.
This feature only works when the object you're holding weighs
 lbs. or more. Any weight difference under  lbs. will be treated
as a natural fluctuation in the user's weight.
Wii Fit Channel
With Wii Fit, you can install a channel in the Wii
Menu so that you can perform a Body Test and
view your graph without having to insert the
Game Disc. Select Install Channel from Settings
(see page 10) to install the channel. Then just
follow the instructions on the screen.
You will not be able to install this channel if you do not have enough available
space in your Wii system memory and free channels on your Wii Menu.
