The invention encourages optimal exercise, particularly of the aerobic type, for cardiovascular fitness. The user powers an exerciser, such as a treadmill, simulated cycling or rowing, and the like, and a monitor displays the users speed and distance accomplished. A variable speed outdoor exercising scene (such as a person rowing a boat) is shown to the user when the monitor is a TV set. The users speed signal controls the speed of a videotape cassette player to proportionately change the speed of the outdoor exercising scene. The speed signal is converted to the reciprocal of speed i.e., minutes per mile and the distance is displayed to hundredths of miles. The latter two signals are converted to BCD digits and superimposed on the video through a TV positioning and generation circuit for display on the scene. The heart beat is picked up electrically or by infra red and converted into three digits of beats per minute, and also superimposed on the video for display on the monitor. In addition, the users pulse rate or heart beat is displayed.
