Questions people ask
Does VR fitness count as real exercise?
Active VR titles can produce meaningful energy expenditure comparable to conventional workouts, but intensity varies widely by game and effort.
Do brain-training games make you smarter?
The strong claims outrun the evidence: you mostly get better at the game itself. Physical exercise has better-supported cognitive benefits.

No. HealthGaming.com is educational, not professional advice. Check with a clinician before new exercise programs, including virtual ones.
