The majority of people associate exercise with cold school days spent out of the playing field with a skipping rope or football. Thankfully for most people, these days are behind them, and there now are myriad different ways to get your recommended weekly dose of fitness. The technological revolution marked an important step forwards in how people started to think about exercise and how practical it could be.

Wii Fit – The Wii fitness console, as well as being primarily for playing games, has also capitalised on the fitness market and has redefined the way that many people exercise at home. You can perform yoga using the Wii Fit Board and even have your own personally trainer cracking the whip. The latest product for the Wii is the ‘Your Shape’ trainer that uses digital camera movement recognition to tell you if you are exercising correctly.

Nike+ - This very clever gadget saw Nike team up with Apple’s ipod to offer runners a way to track exactly how far and fast they were running, as well a whole host of other features. The small device that you place in your shoe works using wireless electrical components that relays information about your running to your ipod. You can later download this information to your home computer and keep track of your running performance and progress. You can even set your ipod to adjust the pace of the songs its plays based on the pace of your running…very clever.

Project Natal – This evolution for the Xbox takes interactive gaming to the next level and like the Wii Fit, there is a serious fitness focus that comes with it. The concept of Project Natal is based upon an incredible receptive digital camera much like the Wii one, but this camera has facial recognition and much more sensitive movement tracking. You can fight Mike Tyson from the comfort of your living room or play a round of golf without needing to buy any clubs.
