Gadgets get couch potatoes moving

"LAS VEGAS, Nevada (AP) -- Consumer electronics companies commonly cater to couch potatoes by pitching bigger television sets, more mesmerizing video games and remote controls that can even place online orders for pizza."

But a small cadre of entrepreneurs at the world's largest technology exposition hope their gizmos make you work up a sweat.Company executives insist that exergaming or exertainment the marriage of physical exercise and video gaming is becoming a hot new device, and they are saying this will help the nation to fit instead of being an overweight country.The four day international Concumer Electronic show and cardio show ended on Sunday and also it was the first ever cardio playzone for fitness. A lot of people enjoyed the machines. I think they are trying to make working more fun for people I think its waste of money. You should just go to a local gym and work and its cheaper and don't have to pay $800 for a machine that will brake down. So stick doing sit ups or using reguler work out machines.
