ABSTRACT:
A portable exercise totalizer for recording total exercise exertion during an exercise period. The exercise totalizer comprises a pulse generator for producing pulses at various predetermined frequencies. A group of activating switches represent respectively various exercise routines, such as walking, jogging, running, sprinting, and the like. At the beginning of the exercise period, an operator actuates the activating switch representing the exercise routine to be performed during the exercise period. The actuation of the activating switch activates the pulse generator and selects the pulse frequency to be produced by the pulse generator during the exercise period. At the end of the exercise period, the operator actuates a deactivating switch to discontinue the generation of pulses by the pulse generator. The selected frequency for the pulse generator represents the level of exercise exertion performed by the operator during the exercise period. A counter records the accumulated total of exercise exertion for the exercise period, which total is displayed visually. When the operator changes the exercise routine during the exercise period, the operator merely actuates another activating switch representing the other exercise routine to be performed.
