Are you looking for something to help you stay active at home? If you enjoy Nintendo Switch gaming, you’ll be glad to hear that it’s not all about sitting down and only moving your hands on the controllers. Today, there are various fitness and activity games that you can play to get you moving in the comfort of your own home. Boxing games are a popular choice, and there are many other great options to consider too. So, grab your Joy-Cons, and let’s take a look at some of the best Nintendo Switch games for keeping fit.

Fitness Boxing:

Fitness Boxing is offered by Nintendo as a lifestyle app and is a great way to get active at home if you enjoy boxing or can’t get to your usual classes when you’re enjoying a staycation. For the price of what you’d expect to pay for a gym membership for a month, you can get access to boxing classes and practice runs on your Switch to get your blood pumping. The game takes some pointers from the popular Just Dance series to provide an engaging yet convenient home workout as you get boxing to the catchy beats.

Ring Fit Adventure:

The latest entry in fitness games from Nintendo succeeds in really making exercise feel like a game. If you are looking for an interesting way to keep fit at home, Ring Fit Adventure is a great option to consider that won’t leave you feeling bored. Just like a workout in the gym, you’re definitely going to feel the effects of this game the next morning if you play it properly – a sure sign that it’s doing your body good.

Just Dance 2020:

Dancing is a fun way to get your body moving and release stress. It increases your mood and can help you stay fit in a way that doesn’t even feel like you are working out. Just Dance 2020 for Switch was released for the series’ 10th anniversary, offering a game formula that has been perfected over the last decade and amazing song list for you to dance along to. To get the most from your purchase, it’s definitely worth subscribing to Just Dance Unlimited.

ARMS:

While it’s not designed specifically as an exercise game, it’s a great game to consider if you want to get a workout in and get sweating. This fighting game will certainly keep you moving with motion-controlled fisticuffs and mechanics that are easy to grasp. The stuns, grabs, and other features that are unique to each stage of the game mean that you’ve got a great foundation for not only having fun but also burning a few calories while you are at it.

Jump Rope Challenge:

This free game is a great way to move more by grabbing your Joy-Con and jumping over a pretend rope as many times as you can. The game was designed specifically to keep you active when you’re stuck indoors and was designed by Nintendo staff working from home. Simple but effective!

Exercise doesn’t have to be boring gym workouts – there are plenty of fun and interesting Nintendo Switch games that will get you moving.
