Abstract

A method for displaying live and archived exercise classes comprising displaying information about exercise classes that can be accessed by a first user via a digital communication network on a display screen at a first location, wherein the first user can select either a live class or select among a plurality of archived classes, outputting digital video and audio content comprising the selected class, detecting performance parameters for the first user at a particular point in the selected class, displaying at least one of the performance parameters on the display screen, and displaying performance parameters from a second user at a second location on the display screen such that at least one of the performance parameters from the first user and at least one of the performance parameters from the second user at the same point in the class are presented for comparison.

A method for displaying live and archived exercise classes comprising:

displaying information about available live and archived exercise classes that can be accessed by a first user via a digital communication network on a display screen at a first location, wherein the first user can select either a live exercise class or select among a plurality of archived exercise classes;
receiving a selection of one of the available live or archived exercise classes by the first user;
outputting digital video and audio content comprising the selected exercise class at the first location to the first user;
determining one or more performance parameters for the first user at the first location at a plurality of points in the selected exercise class;
displaying at least one performance parameter for the first user at the first location on the display screen;
and
dynamically displaying one or more performance parameters for a second user at a second location on the display screen at the first location such that at least one of the performance parameters for the first user at the plurality of points in the selected exercise class and at least one of the performance parameters for the second user at the same points in the selected exercise class are presented for comparison on the display screen at the first location.

A method for providing live and archived exercise classes to remote users comprising:

providing information about available live and archived exercise classes that can be accessed via a digital communication network by a first user using a first computer at a first remote location for display at the first remote location via an interface that includes a display screen, wherein the first user can select either a live exercise class or select among a plurality of archived exercise classes to be displayed on the display screen;
receiving from the first user a selection of one of the available live or archived exercise classes for display on the display screen at the first remote location;
providing digital video and audio content comprising the selected exercise class to the first computer at the first remote location for display to the first user on the display screen;
receiving one or more performance parameters for the first user at the first remote location at a particular point in the selected exercise class;
providing at least one current performance parameter for the first user for display on the display screen at the first remote location ;
receiving one or more performance parameters for one or more other users at one or more other remote locations at the same point in the selected exercise class;
