Bored with exercise? Virtual reality, immersive fitness might help you.   We all want to keep fit, while the government also says in new exercise guidelines telling us to 'Move more, sit less'. However, only 21 percent of adults are getting the minimum amount of exercise a week needed to get protective health benefits, said Aaron Stanton, Director of the Health Institute at San Francisco State.    "We are not a fit nation. " he said. Exercising for the sake of exercise is not really a great motivator. The more fun moving is， the more likely we'll get ourselves fit.   "Virtually reality exercise is a really, really good at being able to distract you from the fact that you were exercising and letting you just enjoy the game," said Dr Stanton.    However in the past, that could be too expensive for ordinary people like us. VR headset prices range anywhere from $550 (Oculus Go) to $800 (HTC Vive). Some headsets come with a few games loaded but otherwise you need to buy the games separately. You also need a good PC. The overall cost would be around $2000-3000.   But today we are providing a new VR Fitness solution, Thoth VR for Samsung users, start from £50, which is based on Samsung phones and our software system. Very easy to use, comes with a headset & a controller, simply click on:

For Samsung phone users, just download and install a Thoth VR portal APP, and click onto Gear VR (which is included in our Pack, for free! ), done! With Thoth VR, you have the powers to put aside the world as you know it, and go anywhere you want to go.  

This VR health care pack is developed by Thoth Technology and a group of Senior Doctors from Hong Kong Baptist Hospital. A pack includes a controller, a Gear VR helmet, and following games to improve your body health with VR experience, designed by professional fitness instructors:

1) VR Snake Battle （head and neck exercise）,  Eliminate That Pain in Your Neck

Tired of reaching for a bottle of pills to quell your chronic pain? You can exercise your cervical spine while playing the game, controlling a snake battle by moving your neck and head following doctors' guides. Real scenes:

Acute and chronic neck pain are common medical conditions, and the treatment typically includes physical therapy involving daily exercises. Insufficient motivation of people afflicted with neck pain to adhere to the prescribed exercise regimen may delay their recovery. Accordingly, in this VR Snake, we propose a system that motivates the users to perform neck exercises by engaging them in a popular Snake Game within virtual reality (VR) environment. The system measures the users’ neck movements via a few static and dynamic kinematic tests and a novel VR Snake battle, tailored to the neck range of motion of each individual user.

The game is designed to make the users perform rehabilitative neck movements according to the prescribed exercise regimen while playing.

 

2) THOTH VR Cycling：

Strap your controller to one of your feet, and ride on a spinning bike machine. As you cycle up hills, through rings of fire and outer space. You will also rode through WAR scenes, jungles, deserts and fantasy worlds.If you have a Spinning Bike , you can forget you're working out,riding through mountains or a forest without ever leaving the room.

6) THOTH VR Yoga (immersive YOGA practice)

Until now, yoga classes were only available in a studio setting, private practice location and most recently recorded or live streaming videos and apps. Now, with Thoth VR, you can unite through an immersive yoga practice in a 3-dimensional and simulated environment from anywhere in the world. Whether you are a practiced guru, or a beginner yogi just learning downward dog, these VR yoga classes offer a chance to catch a mindful moment and moving meditation from anywhere in the world. The teacher will always be in your field of view, regardless where your head is pointing to. This is a fundamental advantage over practice in the real world. You do not need to exit the posture or the flow of movement in order to see what the teacher is doing. While you practice, your head rotation also determines the angle you will see the teacher from.
