Storyboard Description
1. Young lady is lifting dumbbells inside of the gym
2. She frowns as she gets easily distracted and unmotivated whenever weight lifting
3. A gym staff hands her the interactive dumbbell
4. Now she smiles as the changing colors and the goal to get to green, keeps her focused on the workout reps and motivated to complete it
Ta-shea, I love this idea! The immediate visual feedback that the rep is complete would be an excellent motivator. Honestly, it feels like the most difficult part of this project will be making sure the weight is accurate while accounting for the added weight of the technological elements. I would use these!
Hii Ta-Shea I love your idea! I’m excited to see how this turns out. I’m wondering how you will add weight to the dumbbell or if this will be a lighter one? Otherwise I’m super excited to see how this will turn out!! <3
