## Abstract

Exemplary embodiments of a method and system of an exercise apparatus are provided where an exercise apparatus provides exercise data pertaining to a user's physical activity to an electronic device wirelessly in real time. The exercise apparatus can have an accelerometer for recording exercise data pertaining to a user's physical activity, and a wireless transceiver for streaming the exercise data to an electronic device in real time. The electronic device can be a mobile phone, smartphone, laptop, tablet, or other similar electronic device. The electronic device can have a software application that can display the exercise data to a user.

## Claims
