A console for an exercise machine has a console housing providing a user interface for controlling the exercise machine and a media rack removably attached to the console housing and having a shelf sized to support a media item. At least one touch input element is on the media rack and is operable to control an auxiliary device on the exercise machine.

A push button encoder comprises a push button, a base that supports the push button, and a printed circuit board. Pushing the push button engages the printed circuit board and thereby causes the printed circuit board to output an electrical signal. A spring resiliently supports the printed circuit board with respect to the base such that the printed circuit board is movable with respect to the base when the push button is pushed.
