Filed:

Feb 10, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/024399

Inventors:

Thomas McLaughlin - Briarcliff Manor NY, US

International Classification:

A63F 13/06

US Classification:

463 37

Abstract:

An exercise control device adapted to be activated by vigorous exercises such as push-ups and leg squats comprises a joystick having electronic outputs for controlling the movement of an element of a video game. An elongated tether is connected at one end to the joystick and at its opposite end to the body of a user whereby lateral movements of the user's body cause movement of the video game element dependent on the direction of such lateral movement. Movement of the user's body transverse to such lateral movements controls switches in the joystick whereby both lateral and transverse movements of the user can be used to play the video game. A pair of controlled input devices produce signals which can also be used in playing the video games. Such devices may be operated by the user's hands or feet.
