The interactive fitness equipment as used in Game Gym in the Philippines
    SOUTHAMPTON, ENGLAND, January 14, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- At the gym, kids make friends, are motivated to exercise through group play, video games and interactive equipment while developing good motor skills and body coordination.

No interactive gym can be complete without Gamercize interactive fitness gaming so Game Gym founder, Richard Barria flew equipment halfway around the globe in time for the grand opening.

"The good thing about Gamercize is its wide range of use. You can play any PlayStation game here. unlike the stationary bikes where the only games you play are car chases and racing, with Gamercize, you can play Fight simulations, Basketball, Car chases, everything.

Gamercize is not complicated to use. We have 5 year old kids already using it. On average kids play for more than 10 minutes on the Gamercize before being asked (by our trainers) to allow other kids to use it.

The kids love Gamercize, and we change the games often so as not to be repetitive. Most of the time, they didn't notice that they are perspiring. They are "into" the game so much to feel tired," Barria adds.

The idea for Game Gym came from Barria's experience with his own children which proved exercise to be a useful therapy for hyperactivity The gym is popular with children of all ages and abilities, making it a popular destination for events such as children's birthday parties.

Gamercize CEO, Richard Coshott supports the new venture saying, "We have seen a great number of installations in the US, UK and across the globe, including far away places such as Israel and Brazil, so I'm pleased Gamercize is featured in the very first exergaming gym for the Philippines. Richard Barria has identified a gap in the market and fills a growing need for fitness to be fun, especially for children. I like his ideas and approach, which I am sure a number of people will seek to replicate."

The Game Gym's website is www.gamegym.multiply.com.
