Today, you can get professional exercise assistance with a little help from your iPod, video-game console and TV.

On your game system. Who said video games make you fat? EyeToy Kinetic for PlayStation 2 has a personal trainer to lead you through lunges, squats and more as your image is projected on-screen. In one mode, you kick, punch and pummel objects to earn points ($49.99; us.playstation.com). With Yourself! Fitness, for an Xbox or PlayStation 2, you get a fitness analysis, over 500 exercises and workouts with personal trainer Maya, and meal plans ($29.99-34.99; yourselffitness.com).

On your music player. With iTrain, download audio workouts to your MP3 player to rev up your strength-training or make the most of your time on a treadmill, stair climber or exercise bike ($.99-$7.99 per workout; iTrain.com). Audio workouts from Cardio Coach trainer Sean O'Malley will have you fit in no time ($14.95; cardiocoach.com). Use PumpPod on a video-enabled iPod and get images and instructions for cardio and strength moves ($19-49; pumppod.com).

On your TV or PC. Get customized workout DVDs sent to your door from Push. Fill out the online form and you'll receive a three-workout disc each month. Learn from pros, including Bob Harper of The Biggest Loser fame ($75 for 3 months; push.tv).
