One of the UK’s leading sports multivitamin companies is offering four people £500 each to complete video game workouts everyday for a month during lockdown.
The initiative has been launched by Lyvit, in a bid to discover the effectiveness of ‘exergaming’. Exergaming is active video gaming that requires physical movements to play, and often uses motion tracking technology to assess performance.
Candidates must workout for an hour a day using a variety of Nintendo Switch games - Ring Fit Adventure, Just Dance 2020, Zumba Burn It Up and Arms, while keeping a detailed health and wellbeing diary recording their weight, mood and energy levels.
