A system for monitoring the symmetry of a lifting stance, the system including: a platform for supporting a weightlifter during a lift, the platform including support plates which include load sensors; a processor in data communication with the one or more load sensors for receiving and processing weightlifter load data, the processor configured to assess weightlifter symmetry data against a symmetry threshold to provide a symmetry result; and an output module for informing the weightlifter of the symmetry result. Also described is a method for monitoring the symmetry of a lifting stance, including the steps of: receiving data from one or more load sensors on one or more support plates on a weightlifting platform to process weightlifter load data; processing weightlifter load data to provide weightlifter symmetry data; assessing weightlifter symmetry data against a symmetry threshold to provide symmetry result data; and displaying the symmetry result data.

There is disclosed a system for conducting multi-member group competitions involving physical exertion, the system includes a competition server that serves to designate a set of parameters for a competition involving at least two competing groups of individuals engaged in physical activity, the set of parameters defining a win condition requiring physical activity to be completed by at least two separate individuals within each group. The system further receives data representative of physical activity of multiple individuals in a first group, receives data representative of physical activity of multiple individuals in a second group, determines whether the win condition has been satisfied by the first group or the second group, and identifies a winner as the first group or the second group that completed the win condition.

Sensor data is collected from a sensor monitoring a tension generating device of an exercise machine. The sensor data is analyzed to determine whether the sensor data is within a specification. In the event the sensor data is not within a specification, an error stop mode is entered for the tension generating device.

A rehabilitation feedback system is used during rehabilitation of one or more body appendages of a user. The system includes four finger tracking elements and a thumb tracking element supported for movement relative to one another so as to allow a user to performs a gripping motion when the elements are coupled to the fingers and thumb of a user. A biasing member provides a resistance force acting to urge each tracking element towards a starting position thereof. A visual barrier is adapted to hide the hand of the user at a first side of the visual barrier from direct visual sight by the user at a second side of the visual barrier. A sensor at the first side of the visual barrier detects movements of the tracking elements and communicates with an indicator element detectable by the user from a second side of the visual barrier.
