Patent ID: 7470216

Claim:
A method of performing intra-repetition exercise, comprising the steps of: a. engaging a part of an exerciser to an exercise device; b. initiating operation of an intra-repetition performance indicator responsive to travel of said exercise device; c. generating an intra-repetition performance indicator image which provides: i. a target indicia which travels in a target indicator field in correspondence with a pre-established target speed of intra-repetition travel of said exercise device in a first phase of an exercise and in a second phase of said exercise; and ii. an actual performance indicia which travels within an actual performance indicator field in correspondence with actual speed of intra-repetition travel of said exercise device in said first phase of said exercise and in said second phase of said exercise in response to said exercise of said exerciser engaged to said exercise device; d. generating travel of said target indicia within said target indicator field in correspondence with said pre-established target speed of intra-repetition-travel of said exercise device in said first phase of said exercise and in said second phase of said exercise; e. generating travel of said actual performance indicia within said actual performance indicator field in correspondence with actual speed of intra-reptition travel of said exercise device in said first phase of said exercise and in said second phase of said exercise in response to said exercise of said exerciser engaged to said exercise device; f. comparing travel of said actual performance indicia within said actual performance indicator field with travel of said target indicia within said target indicator field; and g. altering actual speed of intra-repetition travel of said exercise device in response to said exercise of said exerciser engaged to said exercise device when travel of said actual performance indicia within said actual performance indicator field fails to compare with travel of said target indicia within said target indicator field.
