A system for recording use of exercise equipment comprises an item of exercise or gym equipment 2 having a machine readable identification 1 such as a QR code or near field communication chip associated with the exercise equipment. A remote server stores information regarding potential use of the exercise equipment. A handheld device such as a smartphone or tablet computer 3 capable of reading the identification tags is connected to the server via a communications network. Upon reading the identification tags, the handheld device is directed to communicate with the remote server to initiate a user session and to display on the handheld device information regarding potential use for the associated exercise equipment. A user may also input data recording the user's use of the exercise into the handheld device and this data is stored in a second memory location either on the server or on an additional server. |
