41 Days of Fitness with Oculus Quest 3: A Game-Changer for Home Workouts | July 21 2026, 01:09

Oculus Quest 3 workouts. Day 41. 40 minutes a day. All systems go! Basically, I highly recommend spending a few hundred dollars on such fitness. It especially helps with switching tasks between projects and weight disappears quickly. Not least because of Oculus I am 10 kg lighter 🙂 In other words, if you work from home, finding 30-40 minutes for several sessions is usually not difficult, and it’s really fun! In the video, I’m passing an 8-minute Advanced level with weights on my arms and torso – 3 kg on the arms, another 10 on the shoulders. Well ok, I do it after three more such levels (off-camera), but I’m already used to it, and still, about 20-25 minutes is enough to be dripping sweat on my shoulder and shirt.

In the video is the game FitXR. There are actually a lot of such games. I just started with this one, and it keeps statistics and all that – vendor lock, basically. There are games that I can’t even properly start – it’s a simulator of a gravity board, the speed of which is determined by the frequency of squats, while you try to stay in lane with the joystick. Quite a dizzying thing, a challenge for the vestibular apparatus. But the main thing is the muscles give up – after a few minutes of very fast squats, you don’t want to play anymore, but people are chopping at it, apparently, need more training.

When we went to Florida, I managed to play between beds – overall, you don’t need much space. But the room at home is large, 6×6 meters, almost no furniture, so you can even play in a level where you need to run around the room and hit virtual buttons hanging in the air. This is augmented reality, through the mask you see quite clearly everything around, and these animated buttons during a very short time allow you to press them (but you first have to quickly find them, then run to them).
