Seems like time for an updated review. Whether or not this was the case 2yrs ago and has since changed, I don't know. But it is 10/10 worth the low cost of $30. I've been using it for a week or so now and not run into any of the problems mentioned in this video. Side note, the augmented reality part of it is great too as it helps keep me from stepping on my cat.

If you haven’t done any kind of boxing or kickboxing before then it may be difficult for some to strike the targets properly, thus getting the messaging you’re not doing it correctly. The coaches talk you through how to hit the targets and have proper form. I’ve really enjoyed the game.
The US les Mills classes are not that expensive, but some countries are not. 24hours fitness is less than $50, but some countries, like my country, to take les mills classes, I have to pay over $100 monthly, and spend 4 to 5 hours on the road. To me it is a pretty good deal. The problem is I have to buy a VR computers.
I purchased it and I absolutely love it. I had no issues hitting the targets and there was vibrations felt throughout the game. The coaches tell you when your form is off and when to correct. If you don’t listen to the q’s then you definitely will not get the score or results that you want. As far as the levels, there are multiple levels and a lot of options. They will ask if the workouts were too much or not enough. Depending on your answer the system will adjust accordingly. Trust me, you will love it.
The knees should be fun but they are annoying because the hit ratio is so low. Fun for a quick 20 min warm up. I like their commentary during the workouts as well. Fun and motivating.
You should try looking at your knees when striking the targets. I noticed some other people looking down and their hits seem to register just fine. I noticed your glance is very leveled. Try looking at your knees next time. Thanks for the review
I don't need that much variety in my workouts. I've been using 6 workouts from Bas Rutten's MMA Workout DVD (2 and 3 minute round versions of the Thai Boxing, Boxing and All Round Fighting workouts) on the banana bag for the past 2 decades. I'm interested to see if VR adds anything to solo workouts though, so I'll give it a crack.
idk if maybe they patched some things for the mechanics that he is complaining about but I just jumped in for my first workout and had no issues maintaining the top of the leaderboard
I got lesmiles for free through pico 4 (got ripped off though because like a few months later new owners got like 4 games kek). I sat on the game fora while. Started it like a week ago and DAMN this is nice.
Yes the gamification element is lacking. I don't understand why they haven't created a game somewhat like the original halo mission where you are trying to combat an alien horde, you have a set of light sabers like in supernatural which maybe are good against the larger bosses but have a recharge time as in they get depleted after a minutes use, and they you can fight the smaller aliens hand to hand using boxing (think zombies) and grenades or bow and arrow as in holopoint for flying monsters. The mechanics are all available just no one has combined them yet.
@@raveneden7028 Me too. But I love the App. Fitness in VR saved my life in a way. I never knew how much I’d like cardioboxing. It helps lift me out of depression.
2 questions: 1) Do the trainers talk during a round/session? 2) If so, can you completely mute them? (ie in Supernatural you can only reduce their volume to ~30%)
@@jakubvilanek8214 Nope, i just tried Les Mills again and I couldn't mute these coaches (unless you press the quest volume button all the way down, but then you wouldn't be able to hear the music as well).
@@jakubvilanek8214 Huh, you're right! I can turn the scoreboard and the coaches off now. I think it was there when i made that comment 2 weeks ago. They really need to make a settings button and make it easily visible to see.
Hallo, wo bzw. wie kann man denn da die Einstellungen ändern. Text zB auf deutsch stellen? Ich finde in der Benutzeroberfläche keinen Button dafür. Und wo ist der Ausloggen-Button?
So lately (November, 2023) whenever I start the app on my Oculus 2, I get black screen with 3 dots for a long time. Basically the game never boots. Anyone else having this issue?
if reboot and hard reboot (holding power and volume down for around 30sec) does not work you need to reinstall the game. you can also quickly push oculus button 5 times to send meta a bug report
I wish they would widen the area to hit of the target. Not visually, but just where you are striking. I miss more often than I care to. Really discouraging when you think you are doing well.
I know you are frustrated your points are low, try to improve your technique, you are clearly a fit person, and have strength and power. But your punches looked ineffective. Use your shoulders and hips more. Woth the knees you need to be faster. If i wre you i would probably practice more in intermediate and easy mode. Once you figure technique and speed out you will kill it in advanced, but in the video you are a way off advanced mode. Awesome review though
For me, Rachael is the worst part of Les Milles Bodycombat; She's absolutely cringe with her culturally appropriated catch-phrases. I experience second-hand embarrassment almost everytime I hear her; I wish she wasn't a part of the game or that she would stfu. Don't have this problem with Dan.
just realized that a lot of yall are wasting your time with vr workout because watching yall play the way yall be hitting the targets and doing them knees is definitely not how u should be doing them,most of yall better of going to the gym,ur not even bending your knees when ur hitting the lower targets,sooo whats the point???
Bought body combat and highly enjoy it. Great workout. If you want better boxing workout i would suggest thrill of the fight. This game had my heart rate up high and was pouring sweat. I tried the free trial super natural and did not care for it. It was not enjoyable. I also tried fitrx and found that so much better than super nat.
I bought this the other day and I absolutely love it.

I love it. My goal is to finish first in the leaderboard. That’s what I go for.
Personal preference is Les mills body combat is the best updates monthly. It’s really motivating and it’s a one time purchase
My husband just started using this. He's on day 14 started at 398 lbs is down to 394. He's doing a before and after using it so and it works
Any updates?
I wish him luck

What it came down to for me is if I'm paying a monthly subscription, I might as well sign up for a gym or an actual class.
But theres no sub for this... its a flat purchase

@@youngcthomaspaik2879You only have to buy the VR Headset and the game!! This game isn't even on PC or Steam.
@@calbgreenbeane now I have one. Thank you.
It's a one time of 30$ I just bought it on my pSvr 2

For kicks you don't need to wait till the end, you can make the kick immediately after grabbing the target.
The knees should be fun but they are annoying because the hit ratio is so low. Fun for a quick 20 min warm up. I like their commentary during the workouts as well. Fun and motivating.

Really excited about this new product category
about the grab and hit by your knee, quests don't register the hit down below your helmet. Once I tried to look a bit down and you know, it works
your face cam really sharp. What are you using to record
been useing it for 10 days in a row now
What is your thought I have just noticed this for the first time today.
I really like it. This is a no thrills, serious workout program where you don't have to pay every month for the same thing.
if you watched all the way to the end... my hand and quest survived! 😬
ouch!

It’s tough. It’s great. Very high intensity. You are hitting them incorrectly.
It is so fun. I tend to fog the lenses tho
@@raveneden7028 Me too. But I love the App. Fitness in VR saved my life in a way. I never knew how much I’d like cardioboxing. It helps lift me out of depression.
Does it have beginner levels or is it all high intensity?
Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced
Yes you need better skills and more training... then it becomes really enjoyable and a very good training 😊
Is there a free trial?
I just got that les mills I’m getting better on it it’s bothering me because it’s to slow
2 questions:
1) Do the trainers talk during a round/session?

After 10 minutes, I lose my breath and feels like dying... Man.... I'm so not fit... LOL
Haha. That’s how it always is for a while. Then you look back and laugh at your old self! 👍😉
Pro tip. For the knees imagine smashing it in front of you instead of where it feels natural

Your punches aren't flat and making contact good, just like real punching lol
I wish they would widen the area to hit of the target. Not visually, but just where you are striking. I miss more often than I care to.
Really discouraging when you think you are doing well.
This helps develop proper form and dedication. I also miss sometimes.
Need some wrist weights!
love this but knees are annoying
Naaah... better workouts to be had in SynthRiders (in Force Mode) & BeatSaber. IMHO. (cheaper too)
What do you like better about them?
I know you are frustrated your points are low, try to improve your technique, you are clearly a fit person, and have strength and power. But your punches looked ineffective. Use your shoulders and hips more. Woth the knees you need to be faster. If i wre you i would probably practice more in intermediate and easy mode.

Sweaty vr headset though lol
Get a silicone cover and wipe it down
