Can you recommend any specific games that meet these requirements? I don't have VR, but I remember playing "Super hot VR" and getting a surprisingly good workout from that game.

It sounds like they're talking about pistol whip. If I can promote one myself, Synth Riders can be a hell of a workout. People like comparing it to beat saber. Unlike beat saber, there's no swords, so there's a lot less wrist movement and a lot more arm/full-body movement. It feels a lot like dancing while you're doing it. I'm no great fan of exercise, but if I'm not careful I can exercise myself deep past exhaustion in this one -- especially on the harder difficulty charts. And beyond that there's a mode where you punch the notes instead of trying to catch them. I haven't tried it, but that sounds even more demanding. But aside from anything else, it's just fun! Great option for training cardio, it really works out the arms.

  Whoa! You’re one of the people behind Synth Riders?!! That’s a great game with great music. I like the immersive add-ons and the fact that it looks like you’re actually dancing to onlookers instead of moving weird like in Beat Saber. My only criticism is that I’m not a fan of the Swing EDM music.

Beat Saber Thrill of the Fight Synth Riders Pistol Whip Body Combat Les Mills XR Dance Supernatural (paid subscription) Fix XR (paid subscription) Holotfit (paid subscription) works with rowing machines Racket Club Until you fall Blade and Sorcery Dragon Fist Kung fu (if you want to go all the way with Pc and don’t mind wires, this one supports foot tracking) Blast on! Stride Battle talent Space pirate trainer Racket NX Gorilla tag Stride Blacktop Hoops Masters of Light Mothergunship forge There’s so many other games that I missed listing. Really any action VR game where you’re the first person hero will get you moving enough as a habit. You are now the character instead of a puppet master controlling one via buttons. Need to duck or crouch? You will feel it and sweat sooner or later.
