      well I wouldn’t say great because your mobility is still a bit limited with a headset and it gets hot really fast. But, it’s a great way to gamify exercise and that works for many people

        True, I’m always absolutely drenched working out in VR, but I personally don’t mind. If you really wanna get into it, there are also all kinds of fans and vents that are supposed to keep you cool(er).

        Sure, having actual personal trainers and physically being in a gym without a headset strapped to your face would be preferable. But it’s certainly a lot more engaging and fun than, for example, doing Apples Fitness+ stuff in front of a TV.
