The Gamercize Sport set-up blocks access to your games console - unless you are working out.

Gamercize Sport connects to your console's controller with a stepper or cycle and stops it working when you are not exercising.

It works with PlayStation one and 2, GameCube and Xbox.

There is a sensor on the Gamercize which detects movement on the exercise machine by way of magnets.

The site (link below) has lots of success story testomonials from fat kids, sorry we mean users, praising the system for giving them the motivation to exercise.

Well, if this is what it'll take to get you moving, then get ordering...
