1. An exercise system configured to gather and quantify data related to energy expenditure during physical activity, the exercise system comprising:

  • at least one force sensing node configured to gather data related to energy expenditure during physical activity, the at least one force sensing node comprising;

    at least one force sensor configured to generate a first output signal responsive to force being exerted by at least one body part on the at least one force sensing node during physical activity; and

    a first communications apparatus configured to transmit the first output signal; and

    a portable hub that is physically separate and distinct from the at least one force sensing node, the portable hub being configured to quantify data related to energy expended during physical activity, the portable hub comprising;

    a second communications apparatus configured to receive the first output signal from the first communications apparatus of the at least one force sensing node; and

    a processor configured to execute one or more computer program modules, the one or more computer program modules comprising;

    an exercise analysis module configured to determine one or more exercise parameters based on the first output signal generated by the at least one force sensor of the at least one force sensing node.
