Fitness potential
Apex Construct is a space scale, sit and stand VR game that allows you to do a light upper body workout. This is a space scale so you can move as much as you can without bumping into things, and you can always crouch or fall out while shooting, which will benefit your lower body.

ARK Park
ARK Park is based on the original PC game ARK: Survival Evolved and is an open world, action and adventure game with elements for shooting, collecting and creating. You will be transported to a futuristic world where dinosaurs, ranging from tiny monkeys to T-Rex, are paramount.
Fitness potential
This is a first person, space scale, and multiplayer game where players fight or collect dinosaurs and eggs before they eat you. There are places to shoot dinosaurs and even some yetis like the old school game (um, 2017). Players can sit or stand while they play, making it an accessible game that uses your torso in spear attacks when you have power behind bumps and shoot when you have been doing it for a while. If that’s too easy for you, add a Weight vest or gloves. Crouching down to collect items or dodging attacks gives you lower body workout with longer play.
Do you want to fight dinosaurs and other monsters in VR to get some exercise? Play: Island 359 and DMD Mars Mission.

Fitness potential
With 4 levels of combat for shooting and killing monsters and bosses, this is an upper body game great for lower body actions when dodging or crouching on a room scale (dodge control system doesn’t count for practice, sorry).

This is a VR rhythm game where you will listen to electrifying music as the balls make their way to the beat platform.

Fitness potential
This is a single player rhythm game where your upper body gets all of the practice as you quickly hit the panels in front of you. Play in 3 difficulty levels: Easy, Normal and Hard. This makes it a good entry-level game that can increase the intensity over time. Rhythm games like this are great for coordination and can be a great add-on game for arm day.
