Abstract: A system for controlling exercise equipment based on user pace and motion analysis is disclosed. The system includes a control unit communicatively coupled with a center of mass (COM) sensor and one or more additional sensors. The COM sensor is configured to track a position of a body of a user on the exercise equipment over time. The one or more additional sensors are configured to track off-center movements of the user over time. The control unit is configured to modulate an adjustable parameter of the exercise equipment based on a plurality of measurements of the user's body position and off-center movements collected by the COM sensor and the one or more additional sensors over time.
