A method and apparatus for accurate and convenient feedback to a user concerning activity level performance. Features of the invention include visual (18, 19) and audible (16) outputs indicating a current level of activity. Another feature includes varying the rate of an audible tone output to reflect an actual and current activity level. In one embodiment an audible output is provided when a user's activity level reaches a desired minimum threshold within a given period of time.
