The Bulls/Sox Training Academy announced that they will be hosting an Exergaming session for kids. In Exergaming 101 participants will be competing against themselves and others while doing games that focus on movement, reaction time, climbing, and quickness. The Exergaming 101 session will be held at the Bulls/Sox Academy, located at 6200 Riverbend Drive in Lisle.

Exergaming fitness is a radical and hi-tech approach to tackling the childhood obesity epidemic through THE VAULT powered by Motion Fitness. The class will consist of 40 minutes of structured gaming followed by 20 minutes of free play.

THE VAULT is the most unique exercise and gaming experience in America. The overall vision is to make a positive difference in the lives of today’s generation and generations to come.
