Embodiment Construction

[0029]FIG. 1 illustrates a perspective view of one embodiment of the invention 10 adapted as a box jump. The lighted contact display 12 is affixed to the top of the box jump 10, which displays a numeral 14 corresponding to the number of contacts made by a user with the surface of the lighted contact display 12.

[0030]FIG. 2 illustrates an exploded view of the components of FIG. 1. The lighted contact display 12 comprises a layered display lens / top face 16 with display cutouts 17 covering a contact foil 18 placed on top of a perimeter foam off-set pad 20, which separates the sensor pad 22. These are supported by a steel plate 24 resistant to repetitive exercise contacts providing rigidity to the lighted contact display 12 covering and protecting the main board 26 with aligned cut-outs 17 to allow the numerals 14 of the main board 26 to be visible. These layered components of the lighted contact display 12 are secured together with fasteners 28.
