Excellent workout but won't count my reps. I tried moving all over, and moving the sensor bar but and it only counts for certain exercises. It took me about 15 minutes to do "10" tricep extentions, when i actually did like 50. any suggestions?

YesCatherine Holecko, Family Fitness Guide, says:
Hi Ashley, I had a similar problem with the triceps and found I was wearing the arm sensor upside down. It's really hard to remember which way is the right way. I think I am going to mark mine with a Sharpie. I also occasionally have a problem getting the game to track my reps on the foot fires. It is exhausting doing more than double the required number when they aren't being counted right! I have to stand in just the right spot in the room, pretty far away from the sensor. Hope that helps!
