1. A system comprising:
- a wearable band including at least one sensor and a transmitter, wherein the transmitter is adapted to transmit biometric and other information measured by the at least one sensor; and
a mobile device in communication with the wearable band and adapted to receive the biometric and other information from the wearable band and to execute an application wherein the application includes instructions operable to;
display an image representing an object at a first elevation; and
responsive to received biometric and other information from the at least one sensor, change the image to represent movement of the object from the first elevation towards a second goal elevation.

Abstract
In a first aspect, a system for playing a video game is provided that includes (1) one or more sensors adapted to monitor one or more biometric parameters of a user and communicate the one or more monitored biometric parameters (MBPs); (2) a computing device adapted to communicate with the one or more sensors and to receive the one or more communicated MBPs; and (3) a video game having an avatar adapted to move an object on an incline, the video game adapted to execute on the computing device. The video game is adapted to control the avatar to perform an action in the video game based in part on the received one or more communicated MBPs. Numerous other aspects are provided.
