Systems and methods for gamification of exercise routines

A non-transitory computer readable medium containing instructions that when executed by at least one processor causes the at least one processor to perform operations for gamifying a physical exertion session, the operations comprising:

• receiving signals indicative of exercise equipment movement repetitions, the signals corresponding to at least one property of manual exercise movements;
• presenting via a display, a controllable element corresponding to the manual exercise movements, the controllable element being movable along a first axis;
• presenting via the display, a plurality of pacing elements movable along a plurality of second axes transverse to the first axis, wherein movement of the pacing elements corresponds to a desired pace of the exercise equipment movement repetitions;
• based on the received signals, regulating movement of the controllable element along the first axis in a manner corresponding to speeds of the manual exercise movements;
• determining collisions between the controllable element movable along the first axis and the plurality of pacing elements movable along the plurality of transverse second axes, the collisions indicating that the speeds of the manual exercise movements match the desired pace of the exercise equipment movement repetitions;
• and
• upon determination of a collision, causing a collision indication to appear on the display.
