Systems and methods for cloud mediated exertion challenges
User-initiated and cloud mediated exertion challenge operations are disclosed. A sensor captures first sensor data reflecting a first subject performing a first exertion, the sensor data reflecting at least one parameter associated with the first exertion. The first sensor data is converted into a challenge, and the challenge is transmitted to a selected second subject. An electronic acceptance of the challenge is received from the second subject, and a second sensor captures second sensor data reflecting the second subject performing a second exertion. An electronic comparison of the first sensor data and the second sensor data confirms that the second exertion complies with the at least one parameter, and then metrics of the first sensor data and the second sensor data are compared to determine a challenge dominator. A report is output to the first subject and the second subject identifying the challenge dominator.
