Using it 4 times a week with fitness apps for cardio. I prefer running but VR fitness is fantastic for when it's too cold to go out running

For what kinds of exercises? Does your headset support seeing your surroundings while you exercise, or do you do static sports (treadmill, indoor bicycle)?
I'm not the OP but i play Thrill of the fight (boxing simulator). For anyone that thinks videogames can't be excercise i suggest you try to do 3 fights in a row on endurance in ToTF.
Mixed reality really can add value to the workout. I even prefer the open design of the Quest Pro over using it with the face guard
same for me. Nearly daily for fitness.

Although I do have a reason since we are developing our own game VRWorkout (hand tracking based full body exercises and mixed reality for safety), I still get a regular crowd of people joining me in our multiplayer workouts
