A few days ago, we shared with you the rapid rise of Fitness Boxing’s sales ranking on Amazon Japan, which happened right after many Fitness Boxing videos went viral on Twitter.

Today, it appears that Fitness Boxing has completely ran out at all Yodobashi Camera locations in Japan. Yodobashi is a very popular and huge electronic retailer, and the moment they sell out of anything it becomes a ripple effect in Japan.

So what is the reason behind the sudden increase in Fitness Boxing sales? Japanese gamers who have been playing Fitness Boxing for a month are reporting they have lost 2.9kg to 4.8kg in the span of one month. That’s pretty incredible for a workout game!

Twitter user @bibresin lost 4.8kg by playing Fitness Boxing for 35 minutes everyday.

フィットボクシング、31日目。今日で1ヶ月！ここまで毎日やって来たが、やめようとか面倒とは思わなかった。仕事が危ない時には時間を短くしたが、運動後の解放感が気持ち良く、35分コースを続けた。体重は、1ヶ月で-4.8kgだ。生活を改めた。#fitboxing#フィットボクシング pic.twitter.com/kr3stAjqxq

So if you’re looking to lose weight, perhaps Fitness Boxing would be a better investment than a gym membership.
