How to play

If your system does not have hand tracking support you can strap the controllers to your wrists, for example with knuckle straps:

Here are other options to use controllers:

If you are just trying it out for the first time you can hold the controllers in your hands, just don't expect to be able to hit the hand cues during the pushups and probably avoid the burpees.
Once you are comfortable and want to move forward with a more serious workout either use VIVE Trackers with wrist straps or strap the controllers to your wrists in a safe manner.

VIVE wands are a bit trickier. One method that works quite well is to use a forearm guard usually used in archery and fixing the controller with Velcro to it. Those forearm guards are usually rather cheap (~$20) and are quite a good option to fix a VR controller to the forearm.

Try to hit the hand cues to the beat of the music.
The head cue has to be touched with your head. Just touch it, you don't need for headbutting
Run in place to receive point multipliers!
If you want to switch out an exercise during play double-tap the new exercise twice in the exercise selector to your right.

The optimal time to hit the cues is when the marker that rotates around the cue touches the second one.

Upon starting you will see several different blocks. Touch one of them at the desired difficulty spot to select a level and difficulty. To disable exercises switch them on/off with the switches to your left.

Exiting a stage during play: On the top of the left blue pole is a sign to exit a stage.

Play with your own music in Freeplay mode* Put on some music in the background and hit the blue drum in the main menu to the beat of the music. Once the beat is set, select one of the freeplay modes to your right. They will send the cues according to the BPM you set but without playing any music.

Please please DO NOT use this workout! As a personal trainer and clinical exercise physiologist, I urge you to NOT use this game. The base moves are good workout moves that will get you results - but they should NOT be used in a VR like this! As you are technically blindfolded when doing these exercises, you have no way to control your form - which is the most important part of your workout. The game make you jump from laying down to standing up very fast, and it is straight up dangerous to follow these moves while blinded inside a headset. I am a HUGE fan of VR workouts and VR fitness - but this is NOT the way.

I know I'll get fitter playing this game. What the hell is a burpee? What is this one handed push-up nonsense? Squats I'm good with, running is fine, jumping without hands above my head is great. Punching the discs is fine. The points system is mad, I couldn't compete in a points table in this unless there's a dad-bod mode tiered system for middle-aged e-sport leagues. This game has taught me much about my fitness levels. 1) I'm not fit enough to complete 30 minutes inside this game with a high score. 2) it doesn't matter, because even if I do half of what the game is asking of me, I'm still moving and that's an improvement on sitting on my arse at the desk. VR fitness is amazing, and so is VRWorkout. I'm streaming my 30 minute sessions on Twitch live at 12noon GMT / 1pmBST in the summer or 1pm GMT in the winter time, and VRWorkout is a regular part of the cycle. The customisations of the routines, music and even in a relatively small play space is great. As long as I don't smash my head off the wall or ceiling and remember to orientate my burpee (seriously, wtf is a burpee, why do people invent these things? Don't people live in houses with low ceilings?) The graphics are perfect, like a 1980s gym in Tron, with hints and tips to keep you moving. Don't get put off, this will break a sweat if you push it. I'm sure even those who can do fifty push-ups a day for weeks on end will still be able to get a decent challenge on this. Definitely worth picking up, and even if you do just five minutes a day to get you started, you'll feel the benefit after the initial complaints from your body when you try, at speed, to merge a push-up with a squat and a jump.
