Abstract
A movement analysis system may use a force sensing mat to record a pattern of applied force from the user's feet as the user undergoes a series of directed movements. The movements may be directed by the system through indicator lights in the mat and/or directions provided on a display screen. The user's response to these directions may be recorded and analyzed to derive indications of the best exercise regime based on the user's capabilities.
