Motivatrix MX10 Workout Master is a [complete workout machine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ottogano) from Exergame Fitness. The MX10 Workout Master creates a personal program depending on feedback from various sensors. Choose from cardio, aerobic, or maximum challenge workouts. [Internal games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gamebased-fitness) are available to add some fun to the workout routine. The sensors can even measure your [flailing arms and can gauge speed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rebuff-reality-bodylink), calories and weight. The cost? It's $12,500.

**Implications** - In North American society, children are becoming more overweight due to the popularization of the Internet and video games.
