Patent attributes
A fitness tool is described. The tool includes a grip component and a handle component. The handle component includes sensors and the grip component includes an electronics unit. The electronics unit includes a fitness application. The fitness application receives a signal from a button located on the grip component to signal that the user is performing an exercise. The fitness application also receives a measurement of force applied to the handle component from the sensors. The fitness application processes the signal and the measurement of force and then transmits the signal, the measurement of force, and other exercise metrics to a computing device. The user interacts with another application on the computing device to view, track, and modify these exercise metrics.
