The EnterTrainer: New Invention “Powers†TVs with exercise
January 26th, 2006
PowerUp Fitness (Philadelphia, PA) announces a new wireless household accessory that converts any exercise machine into a virtual power generator for TVs video games and stereos. While “exer-tainment†video games gain popularity, this new personal cardio trainer broadens opportunities for those who seek to motivate exercise with electronic entertainment. The EnterTrainer® Cardio-TV-Trainer is available online at TheEnterTrainer.com for the suggested retail price of $99 (dealer inquiries welcome.)
The EnterTrainer® combines a wireless heart monitor and a universal remote control and may be used with any type of fitness equipment or activity. In response to exercise, The EnterTrainer® turns on any TV and maintains volume in direct relation to heart rate. If heart rate goes below a chosen workout target zone, the volume gradually lowers and ultimately the TV turns off. The TV power and volume are restored once the desired workout level is again achieved. The device, about the size of a softball, can be mounted on exercise machines or placed nearby for activities such as push-ups, weight training, jump rope or while exercising to a video routine. Personalized workout levels are calculated based upon user age and workout goals (aerobic, fat burn or cardio) or heart rate target may be set manually.
Doctors agree that obesity is the number one health concern facing Americans today. Exercise and diet are the solution. Exercise is proven to not only address weight issues, but also fights depression and elevates the body’s metabolism throughout the day.
For parents feeling guilty about their kids’ health and electronics obsessions, The EnterTrainer® is used as a motivational tool enabling parents to offer a fun way for kids to enjoy their favorite pastime while getting the exercise their doctors recommend.
The EnterTrainer® includes an enhanced wireless heart monitor (compatible with any heart rate interactive equipment) mounting materials, free tech support, 90-day warranty and easy user guide. It is available only at www.theEnterTrainer.com or by calling 1-TV Turns You On (1-888-876-7968.)
