The official Xbox Fitness has been promising a new content for the past several months. The Kinect-based exercise app finally looks like they are ready to deliver.
Microsoft's free Xbox Fitness app has been one of the few main graces for the Kinect sensor along with voice navigation. Even though that is the case, there has been a distinctive lack of new material for the package. Much has been guaranteed but little has been provided. Just when the users rumoured that it had hit the wall and was out for the count, the new pack of content has been on the rampage.
Publicised via Instagram, The Xbox Fitness unveiled the new exercise program called Extreme Combat. The new content has been solely manufactured for Xbox Fitness on Xbox One. Extreme Combat is hosted by the well-known fitness specialist, Mike Karpenko, who is famous for his life teaching and strength workouts. It also features a number of sessions that can be acquired as an Xbox Fitness content add-on with the first one being open to users for free so they can mock up the training style.
The Xbox Fitness app was a main center during the Xbox One's takeoff but has since washed-out into the background with next to none at press occasions and conventions. There has also been a noticeable drop-off in active users, which is made apparent when doing just one 30-minute calisthenics a month. The program was unsuccessful to live up to its timely marketing hysteria with the official Xbox Fitness accounts getting only 8307 or so followers on Twitter and a stingy 632 followers on Instagram after the launch for over 2 years or so ago. There also have been some grave usability glitches and bugs that still need to be fixed.
The Extreme Combat content for Xbox Fitness is now available for download and is designed to contest your core, strength and endurance as well as to burn calories. It is being pitched as a total-body mixed martial arts program that covers five exercises -- highlighting all manner of punches and kicks.
