Exergaming combines the fun of video games, cutting-edge technology and other creative tools with proven fitness tactics—such as heart-pumping movement—to help build strength, improve the mind/body connection and increase collaboration while having fun.
It’s well known that interactive games are good for improving cognitive skills – split-second decision making, problem-solving, multitasking and increasing your attention span. But, did you know that exergaming can also improve teamwork? These types of games promote interaction between co-workers by fostering stronger friendships and allowing more open and effective communication to reach an end goal. Exergaming also allows users to experience healthy competition to improve “adversity skills” – pushing ahead when faced with challenges.
Led by Marc Sickel, founder and owner of Fitness for Health and a celebrated innovator in the field of exergaming, Fitness for Health has been reinventing exercise since 1989.
