Hands-free exercise device combining: weights; an electronic vital signs monitoring device with interactive capabilities and a controllable interface with an electronic or instrumental percussive music source, adapted to be worn about the user's body resulting in new method of conducting an exercise program. User varies weight to adjust muscle load during a range of motion. Simultaneously, sound is movement activated: depending on placement, user learns to exercise de-conditioned muscle groups by learning how to produce sound. During exercise, device monitors/records user's vital signs to objectively determine exertion level in real time, and calculate long term progress. Device can automatically adjust tempo, challenging user to respond with concordant change in exercise pace so that actual exertion level will increase or decrease to desired levels. Device can respond to exertion, notifying user when a threshold of exertion is reached by switching the type of instrumental sound, providing indicative audible cue.
