  However, in Patent Document 1, an exercise that meets a user's goal is mechanically selected and provided. For this reason, an exercise with the same content is introduced to the user every time, and the user gets bored with the exercise.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above problems. An object of the present invention is to provide an exercise support apparatus, an exercise support method, and a program capable of presenting lesson information combining a plurality of exercises that reflect exercise loads in which different stages of loads are set based on body composition. .

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided an exercise support device for supporting exercise by presenting lesson information indicating exercise for moving a body part, the first acquisition means for acquiring age information indicating age, and the body A second acquisition means for acquiring body composition information indicating a composition, and an exercise load representing a load on the body, wherein the magnitude of the load is divided into a plurality of stages according to the age information acquired by the first acquisition means The first setting means for setting the settable exercise load to be smaller as the age is higher, and the exercise load set by the first setting means is acquired by the second acquisition means. According to body composition information , it can be set in a plurality of stages, the second setting means for setting the exercise load to be a larger load as the body composition information shows a value close to a standard, and the first setting Means Generating means for generating a plurality of the lesson information by combining the motion that reflects the exercise set by fine said second setting means comprises a, each movement, the load on the body with the execution of the movement The exercise levels divided in magnitude are set, and the generation means is a ratio of the number of exercises combined as the lesson information, and the exercise set by the first setting means and the second setting means based on the percentage set in the motion level for each depending on the load, a plurality of the combination of exercise level of exercise it and generates the lesson information exercise support apparatus is provided.

  In the first aspect, the magnitude of exercise load can be set according to age and body composition. Since an appropriate exercise load according to physical strength is set, the user can perform the exercise shown in the lesson information without difficulty. Moreover, a 1st aspect sets the exercise load which changes with the fluctuation | variation of a body composition. The lesson information that reflects it is different from that before the body composition changes. For this reason, it is possible to suppress the user from getting bored with the lesson information due to the presentation of only the exercise with the same content.

In the first aspect, the body composition indicated by the body composition information is a BMI value and a blood pressure value, and the second setting means has the BMI value smaller than a first predetermined value and the blood pressure value is a second predetermined value. If the value is smaller than the value, the load represented by the exercise load is set to a higher level, and the BMI value is either the first predetermined value or more, or the blood pressure value is the second predetermined value or more. In such a case, the load represented by the exercise load may be set to a middle level lower than the upper level. Further, the second setting means, at the BMI value said first predetermined value or more and the load the blood pressure value in the case of the second predetermined value or more, expressed in the exercise, moderate The lower level may be set.

  When the BMI value and the blood pressure value information are used as the body composition information and both are smaller than the predetermined value, the first aspect can set the exercise load at a higher level. On the other hand, if it is higher than the predetermined value, the exercise load can be set to a middle level. Furthermore, if both are high, the exercise load can be set to a lower stage. Different exercise loads can be set in response to gradual changes in body composition. Therefore, in the first mode, by using two types of body composition information that is difficult to change and reflecting a transitional change, it is possible to suppress the presentation of the same exercise for a long time, and the user gets bored with the lesson information. Can be suppressed.

  In the first aspect, the length of the exercise time, which is the time for performing the exercise indicated in the lesson information, is determined as the exercise load according to the stage of the load set by the first setting means and the second setting means. You may further provide the 1st determination means to do. In the first aspect, the magnitude of the exercise load can be adjusted by the length of the exercise time. Thereby, it can suppress that the exercise | movement of the same content as a lesson information reflecting exercise load for a long term is shown. Therefore, user fatigue can be suppressed.

  In the first aspect, the first determining means determines a rest time for resting the body, and the generating means is a plurality of exercises reflecting the exercise load based on the determined exercise time and the rest time. The lesson information may be generated in combination with a break. By incorporating the break time into the lesson information, the user can recover from fatigue and continue exercising. Therefore, the 1st mode can raise the effect which arises in a user's body by execution of exercise more.

  In the first aspect, the body part is moved according to the plurality of exercises indicated in the lesson information according to the age acquired by the first acquisition unit and the body composition acquired by the second acquisition unit. There may be further provided third setting means for setting the operation speed at the time. In the first aspect, the third setting means may increase or decrease the operating speed according to the age, while decreasing the operating speed according to the body composition.

  The first aspect can increase or decrease the operation speed according to age. Therefore, the effect of the exercise obtained according to the operation speed can be enhanced. Also, the operation speed can be reduced according to the body composition. Therefore, the user can perform the exercise shown in the lesson information without difficulty.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. In this embodiment, an exercise support apparatus 2 that distributes exercises will be described as an example with reference to the drawings. The drawings to be referred to are used to explain technical features that can be adopted by the present invention. For this reason, it is not the meaning limited to drawing to refer, but is only an explanatory example.

  First, the schematic configuration of the exercise support apparatus 2 will be described with reference to FIG. The exercise support device 2 shown in FIG. 1 is a device that can deliver exercises to the terminal device 5. For example, the exercise support apparatus 2 is a well-known personal computer (PC). The terminal device 5 is operated by the user 41. The exercise support apparatus 2 is executed by installing an exercise support program to be described later. As a result, the exercise support device 2 creates an exercise combining exercises that match the purpose of the exercise (object information) input by the user 41 in the terminal device 5 and transmits the exercise to the terminal device 5.

  Next, an outline of an exercise created in accordance with the execution of an exercise support program described later in the exercise support apparatus 2 having the above configuration will be described. In the present embodiment, the exercise is a series of exercises obtained by combining a plurality of exercises of one unit. Exercise is continued for a predetermined time. One unit of exercise is an exercise combining one type or a plurality of types of specific exercises such as a march and a side step. The operation content is set so that one unit of exercise is completed in a short time of about 5 minutes. The user 41 is presented with a CG (computer graphics) video as a model for the user 41 to exercise. The CG image is an image in which an instructor 42 that performs an example of an exercise that moves a body part is reproduced by CG. The exercise support device 2 distributes CG video data that the instructor 42 exercises to the terminal device 5. The exercise data is streamed in a container format such as MP4 or 3GPP. The terminal device 5 reproduces the received data and displays it on the monitor 67 or the like. The user 41 performs exercise using the exercise performed by the displayed instructor 42 as a model.

  The exercise data is not limited to CG video data. For example, the contents of the exercise may be distributed as digital data that can be transmitted to the user by voice or text display. Alternatively, exercise CG data performed by the instructor 42 may be used. In this case, a 3D display program corresponding to the format of CG data is installed in the terminal device 5. And CPU of the terminal device 5 should just reproduce the CG image | video in which the instructor 42 models exercise. The exercise data is not limited to the streaming format, and may be distributed in a download format.

  The exercise support device 2 includes a CPU 21 that controls the control. A ROM 22, a RAM 23, and an input / output interface 25 are connected to the CPU 21 via a bus 24. The ROM 22 is a read-only storage device that stores programs such as BIOS executed by the CPU 21. The RAM 23 is a readable / writable storage device that temporarily stores data.

  A hard disk drive (HDD) 3, a disk drive 28, a communication unit 30, a display control unit 26, a keyboard 31 and a mouse 32 are connected to the input / output interface 25. When the disk ROM 29 is inserted, the disk drive 28 reads data and programs from the disk ROM 29. The disk ROM 29 is a storage medium that stores data, such as a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM. An OS, an exercise support program (described later) and the like for operating the PC as the exercise support device 2 are stored in the disk ROM 29 and provided.

  An OS, an exercise support program, and the like read from the disk ROM 29 are installed in the HDD 3. In addition to the OS and programs, various tables and data used in the exercise support program are stored. Note that the OS, the program, and the like may be provided by being stored in another storage medium such as a flash ROM. Alternatively, it may be provided by downloading from another computer (not shown) connected via the network 10 such as the Internet.

  The display control unit 26 performs a drawing process for displaying on the monitor 27 an operation screen such as an OS or a program operated by the exercise support apparatus 2. The keyboard 31 and the mouse 32 are used when performing an operation on an operation screen such as an OS or an exercise support program operated by the exercise support device 2. The communication unit 30 is an interface for performing communication via the network 10 such as the Internet.

  Next, the terminal device 5 is a device that can be connected to the network 10 and can receive and reproduce exercise data distributed by the exercise support device 2. Examples of the terminal device 5 include a PDA, a mobile phone, a smartphone, a personal computer, a network-compatible monitor, and a game machine. In the present embodiment, a network-compatible monitor that can be connected to a network 10 such as the Internet and can communicate with the exercise support device 2 will be described as an example of the terminal device 5.

  The terminal device 5 is equipped with a microcomputer (not shown). The microcomputer reproduces the exercise data (CG image data in this embodiment) received from the exercise support device 2 and displays the CG image on the monitor 67. Also, music is output from the speaker 64. The user 41 performs an exercise to move the body part in accordance with the exercise image and the music. In addition, the user 41 uses a console 62 such as a remote controller to input personal information, a purpose of exercise (described later), and the like. The terminal device 5 transmits information input by the user 41 to the exercise support device 2 via the network 10. In addition, you may output the image | video and music of an exercise | movement to the monitor 27 and speaker (not shown) of the exercise assistance apparatus 2. FIG. In this way, it is possible to support the user's exercise by using only the exercise support device 2 without using the terminal device 5.

  Next, an outline of an exercise created in accordance with the execution of an exercise support program described later in the exercise support apparatus 2 having the above configuration will be described. Exercises are created by combining multiple exercises of one unit. The exercise can be classified according to the exercise classification (hereinafter also referred to as “genre”). Examples of genres include “Aero (Aerobics) or Step”, “Melee”, “Circuit” and the like. The genre is composed of movements with the same characteristics. Therefore, exercise is divided by genre.

  The exercise support apparatus 2 having the above configuration employs a plurality of genres according to the purpose of exercise of the user 41. The exercise support apparatus 2 constitutes an exercise mainly including exercises included in a predetermined genre from among the genres. Since the user 41 receives an exercise according to the purpose of the exercise, several kinds of exercises are prepared in advance so as to be selectable. Specific examples of the purpose of exercise include improvement of metabolic (metabolic syndrome), shape up, and strength enhancement.

  In addition, a genre suitable for achieving the purpose is associated with the purpose of the exercise in advance. In the exercise support program described later, the frequency of adopting the genre for exercise is set in advance for each purpose of exercise. The adoption frequency is set so that a genre suitable for the purpose of the exercise of the user 41 is adopted for exercise at a higher frequency (ratio) than other genres. That is, the exercise mainly includes an exercise in which the user 41 can easily achieve the exercise purpose. In addition, the exercise includes a secondary exercise even if the exercise is difficult for the user 41 to achieve the exercise purpose.

  In addition, the exercise support device 2 according to the present embodiment ranks the physical strength of the user 41 in five levels according to age and body composition. Then, exercise of a level corresponding to the rank (hereinafter referred to as “exercise level”) is included in the exercise configuration. The exercise level is obtained by dividing the magnitude of the load (exercise load) applied to the body of the user 41 with the execution of the exercise. The higher the exercise level, the greater the exercise load on the user 41. Each genre has a plurality of exercises. Each exercise has its own exercise level. In the present embodiment, the BMI value and the systolic blood pressure value of the user 41 are referred to as the body composition.

  For example, there is an exercise whose genre is “Aero or Step” and whose exercise level is level 1. This exercise is created by combining low-impact exercises that are considered to have a relatively small exercise load on the user 41. Examples of low-impact exercises include “March” and “Mambo Step”. Similarly, for example, there is level 4 exercise in which the genre is “aero or step” and the exercise level is four steps higher than level 1. This exercise is created by combining high-impact exercises that are considered to have a relatively large exercise load on the user 41. Examples of high-impact exercises include “rocking hose” and “twist”.

  In the exercise support program, the operation timing of the exercise operation is adjusted according to the age and body composition of the user 41. Specifically, the BPM of the music used for the exercise is changed according to the age and body composition of the user 41. If the BPM increases (increases), the operation timing of the exercise operation is accelerated, and the exercise load applied to the user 41 is increased. Further, if the BPM decreases (decreases), the operation timing of the exercise operation is delayed, and the exercise load applied to the user 41 is reduced. Thus, by changing the exercise level and BPM of exercise, an appropriate exercise load corresponding to the physical strength of the user 41 is set, and the user 41 can exercise without difficulty.

  On the other hand, the exercise support device 2 of the present embodiment does not fix the correspondence between the rank of the user 41 and the exercise level. The exercise support apparatus 2 creates an exercise including an exercise at an exercise level appropriate for the rank of the user 41 and an exercise at a level close to the exercise level. More specifically, when the exercise support apparatus 2 creates an exercise, the exercise support apparatus 2 determines an exercise of an exercise level suitable for the rank of the user 41 as the main exercise. In other words, the main exercise is an exercise having an exercise level appropriate for the rank of the user 41 or equivalent to the rank of the user 41. In addition, a motion of a level close to the motion level of the main motion is determined as a secondary motion. In other words, the secondary movement is a movement whose movement level is different from that of the main movement. The secondary exercise may be exercise with an exercise level lower than the rank of the user 41. Alternatively, the secondary exercise may be an exercise with an exercise level higher than the rank of the user 41. Then, the main exercise is adopted in the exercise configuration with a frequency that is greater than that of the auxiliary exercise. In this way, the exercise is created by combining the main exercise and the secondary exercise. As a result, the user 41 can perform an exercise including a main exercise with an exercise level appropriate for the rank and a secondary exercise with an exercise level close to the main exercise.

  Hereinafter, an exercise support program executed by the exercise support apparatus 2 will be described. First, the timetable determination table referred to in the exercise support program will be described. The HDD 3 of the exercise support apparatus 2 stores a timetable determination table shown in FIG. 2 in a predetermined storage area. Although not shown, a table for setting the frequency of genre adoption according to the purpose of exercise is also stored in a predetermined storage area of the HDD 3.

  The timetable determination table is a table for determining a timetable for setting the execution order and the number of executions of the exercises constituting the exercise. The exercise execution order and the number of executions are set according to the exercise time set according to the rank of the user 41. In the timetable determination table, exercises that can employ an exercise of about 5 minutes as many times as possible according to the exercise time are registered. For example, if the exercise time is 40 minutes, the exercise of 5 minutes can be executed 8 times, so an exercise that can employ 8 exercises is provided.

  In exercise, a warm-up exercise (WU) is performed at the start of the lesson. At the end of the lesson, a cool-down exercise (CD) is held. Furthermore, in the exercise, a break time (BK) for resting the body during the exercise time is acquired. In the exercise time determination process of the exercise support program, which will be described later, the interval for taking a break time is determined according to the exercise type and rank. In the timetable determination table, exercises that allow exercise and CD, BK, and WU to be executed in an appropriate order are registered in accordance with the length of exercise time and the acquisition interval of break time.

  The exercise type is designated as a genre to be incorporated into the exercise from two types desired by the user 41. Specifically, the exercise type 1 is a genre that includes many exercises that perform relatively intense exercise. Examples of the exercise type 1 genre include “aero or step”, “combat”, “circuit”, and the like. Also, the exercise type 2 is a genre that includes many exercises in which the exercise operation moves relatively slowly. Examples of the exercise type 2 genre include “yoga” and “stretch”.

  Next, the operation of the exercise support device 2 according to the execution of the exercise support program will be described with reference to FIGS. Hereinafter, each step of the flowchart is abbreviated as “S”.

  The main process (not shown) of the exercise support program is automatically executed when the OS of the exercise support apparatus 2 is activated, and performs processes such as user registration and login. When the user 41 receives an exercise presentation from the exercise support device 2, the user 41 operates the console 62 of the terminal device 5 to log in to the exercise support program. When the user 41 performs an operation for receiving an exercise presentation on the terminal device 5, the exercise creation process shown in FIG. 3 is called in the main process of the exercise support program.

  In the exercise creation process shown in FIG. 3, the CPU 21 of the exercise support apparatus 2 calls a rank determination process (S1). In the rank determination process illustrated in FIG. 4, the CPU 21 performs a process of requesting the user 41 to input age information (S11). The microcomputer (not shown) of the terminal device 5 receives an instruction based on the above processing in the exercise support device 2 and displays an age input screen on the monitor 67. The microcomputer waits for the age to be input by the operation of the user 41. The microcomputer transmits the input age information to the exercise support apparatus 2 via the network 10. The CPU 21 of the exercise support apparatus 2 stores the received age information in the RAM 23.

  Next, the CPU 21 performs a process for requesting the user 41 to input body composition information (S12). The microcomputer of the terminal device 5 receives an instruction based on the above processing in the exercise support device 2 and displays an input screen for information on body composition (BMI value and systolic blood pressure value) on the monitor 67. The microcomputer waits for the body composition information to be input by the operation of the user 41. The microcomputer transmits the input body composition information to the exercise support device 2 via the network 10. The CPU 21 of the exercise support device 2 stores the received body composition information in the RAM 23.

  CPU21 performs judgment processing of S13-S23, and ranks user 41 into five steps based on age and body composition. When the age is less than 40 years old (S13: YES), the BMI value is less than 25 (S14: YES), and the maximum blood pressure value is less than 160 (S16: YES), the CPU 21 sets the rank of the user 41 to 1 (S17).

  If the age is less than 40 years old and the BMI value is less than 25 but the maximum blood pressure value is 160 or more (S13: YES, S14: YES, S16: NO), the CPU 21 determines the rank of the user 41 as 2 (S26). . If the age is less than 40 years old and the maximum blood pressure value is less than 160 but the BMI value is 25 or more (S13: YES, S14: NO, S19: YES), the CPU 21 determines the rank of the user 41 as 2 (S26). . If the BMI value is less than 25 and the maximum blood pressure value is less than 160, but the age is between 40 and 60 (S13: NO, S17: YES, S18: YES, S19: YES), the CPU 21 ranks the user 41. 2 is determined (S26).

  If the age is between 40 and 60 and the BMI value is less than 25, but the systolic blood pressure is 160 or more (S13: NO, S17: YES, S18: YES, S19: NO), the CPU 21 ranks the user 41. 3 is determined (S27). If the age is between 40 and 60, and the maximum blood pressure is less than 160, but the BMI value is 25 or more (S13: NO, S17: YES, S18: NO, S22: YES), the CPU 21 ranks the user 41. 3 is determined (S27). If the BMI value is less than 25 and the systolic blood pressure value is less than 160, but the age is 60 years or older (S13: NO, S17: NO, S21: YES, S22: YES), the CPU 21 determines the rank of the user 41 as 3 (S27).

  If the age is 60 years or older and the BMI value is less than 25 but the systolic blood pressure value is 160 or more (S13: NO, S17: NO, S21: YES, S22: NO), the CPU 21 determines the rank of the user 41 as 4 (S28). When the age is 60 years or older and the maximum blood pressure value is less than 160, but the BMI value is 25 or more (S13: NO, S17: YES, S21: NO, S23: YES), the CPU 21 determines the rank of the user 41 as 4 (S28).

  When the age is 60 years or older, the BMI value is 25 or more, and the maximum blood pressure value is 160 or more (S13: NO, S17: NO, S21: NO, S23: NO), the CPU 21 determines the rank of the user 41 as 5. (S29). After determining the rank of the user 41 as described above, the CPU 21 returns to the exercise creation process of FIG.

  Next, the CPU 21 calls an exercise time determination process (S2). In the exercise time determination process shown in FIG. 5, the CPU 21 performs a process for requesting the user 41 to input an exercise purpose and exercise type (S 31). The microcomputer (not shown) of the terminal device 5 receives an instruction based on the above-described processing in the exercise support device 2 and displays a selection screen for the exercise purpose and exercise type on the monitor 67. The microcomputer waits for an exercise purpose that matches the purpose of the user 41 to be selected from a plurality of types of exercise purposes prepared by the operation of the user 41. Further, the microcomputer waits for the exercise type performed by the user 41 to select the exercise type to achieve the purpose of the exercise by the operation of the user 41 (S31). The microcomputer transmits the selected exercise purpose and exercise type information to the exercise support apparatus 2 via the network 10. The CPU 21 of the exercise support apparatus 2 stores the received exercise purpose and exercise type information in the RAM 23.

  The CPU 21 checks whether or not the stored exercise type is 1, and if it is exercise type 1 (S32: YES), the CPU 21 performs the determination process of S33 to S37. Then, the CPU 21 determines the length of the exercise time (S44 to S49) and the interval for acquiring the break time according to the rank (S51 to S56). If the stored exercise type is 2 (S32: NO), the CPU 21 performs the determination process of S38 to S42. Similarly, the CPU 21 determines the length of the exercise time (S57 to S62) and the interval for taking the break time according to the rank (S63 to S68).

  If the exercise type is 1 (S32: YES) and the rank is 1 (S33: YES), the CPU 21 sets the exercise time to be selectable as 40 minutes, 30 minutes, or 20 minutes (S44). Further, the CPU 21 determines to acquire a break time once every 40 minutes (S51). If the rank is 2 (S33: NO, S34: YES), the CPU 21 sets 40 minutes, 30 minutes, or 20 minutes as an exercise time so that it can be selected (S46). Further, the CPU 21 determines to acquire a break time once every 30 minutes (S52). If the rank is 3 (S33: NO, S34: NO, S36: YES), the CPU 21 sets the exercise time to be selectable as 30 minutes or 20 minutes (S47). Further, the CPU 21 determines to acquire a break time once every 20 minutes (S53). If the rank is 4 (S33: NO, S34: NO, S36: NO, S37: YES), the CPU 21 sets 30 minutes or 20 minutes as an exercise time so that it can be selected (S48). Further, the CPU 21 determines to obtain a break time once every 15 minutes (S54). If the rank is 5 (S33: NO, S34: NO, S36: NO, S37: NO), the CPU 21 sets the exercise time to 20 minutes (S49). Further, it is determined to acquire a break time once every 10 minutes (S56). CPU21 memorize | stores the length of the set exercise time and the acquisition interval of the determined rest time in RAM23.

  On the other hand, when the exercise type is 2 (S32: NO) and the rank is 1 (S38: YES), the CPU 21 sets the exercise time to be selectable as 50 minutes, 40 minutes, or 30 minutes (S57). . Further, it is determined that the break time is acquired once every 50 minutes (S63). If the rank is 2 (S38: NO, S39: YES), the CPU 21 sets 50, 40, or 30 minutes as an exercise time so that it can be selected (S58). Further, the CPU 21 determines to acquire a break time once every 30 minutes (S64). If the rank is 3 (S38: NO, S39: NO, S41: YES), the CPU 21 sets the exercise time so that 40 minutes or 30 minutes can be selected (S59). Further, the CPU 21 determines to acquire a break time once every 20 minutes (S66). If the rank is 4 (S38: NO, S39: NO, S41: NO, S42: YES), the CPU 21 sets the exercise time to be selectable as 40 minutes or 30 minutes (S61). Further, the CPU 21 determines to acquire a break time once every 20 minutes (S67). If the rank is 5 (S38: NO, S39: NO, S41: NO, S42: NO), the CPU 21 sets the exercise time to 30 minutes (S62). Further, the CPU 21 determines to acquire a break time once every 15 minutes (S68). CPU21 memorize | stores the length of the set exercise time and the acquisition interval of the determined rest time in RAM23.

  After determining the length of the exercise time and the interval for taking the break time as described above, the CPU 21 performs a process for requesting the user 41 to select an exercise time (S69). The microcomputer (not shown) of the terminal device 5 receives an instruction based on the above process in the exercise support apparatus 2, and displays on the monitor 67 the exercise time set to be selectable in the process of S44 to S48 or S57 to S61. Display the selection screen. The microcomputer waits for the exercise time to be selected by the operation of the user 41. The microcomputer transmits the selected exercise time to the exercise support apparatus 2 via the network 10. The CPU 21 of the exercise support device 2 stores the received exercise time in the RAM 23. The CPU 21 returns to the exercise creation process of FIG.

  Next, the CPU 21 executes a genre determination process (S3). The CPU 21 refers to the above-described table for setting the employment frequency (not shown). The CPU 21 acquires a plurality of genres corresponding to the purpose of the exercise input in S31 (see FIG. 5) and their adoption frequencies, and stores them in the RAM 23. Next, the CPU 21 refers to the timetable determination table (see FIG. 2). The CPU 21 determines an exercise timetable on the condition of rank, exercise type, exercise time, and number of breaks, and stores it in the RAM 23. Note that the number of breaks is calculated based on, for example, the interval for taking a break within the exercise time. For example, under the conditions of rank 2, exercise type 1, exercise time 40 minutes, and number of breaks, the CPU 21 determines an exercise having the timetable shown in FIG.

  And based on the some genre acquired according to the objective of exercise | movement, and those adoption frequency first, CPU21 determines the genre of the exercise | movement employ | adopted for a timetable. For example, in the case of the exercise having the timetable of FIG. 6, the CPU 21 can adopt the genre in the second, third, fourth, fifth, eighth, ninth and tenth in the execution order. CPU21 determines the genre employ | adopted according to each execution order according to adoption frequency. For example, the genres acquired according to the purpose of exercise are “aero or step” (abbreviated as A), “combat” (abbreviated as K), “circuit” (abbreviated as C), and the frequency of adoption of “A” Is higher than the frequency of adoption of “K” and “C”. In this case, for example, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the CPU 21 employs “A” having a high adoption frequency in the second, third, fourth, and fifth order in the execution order. Then, the CPU 21 employs “K” and “C”, which are less frequently employed than “A”, in the seventh, eighth, and ninth and tenth orders in the execution order, respectively.

  In the exercise creation process of FIG. 3, the CPU 21 next calls a BPM determination process (S4). In the BPM determination process shown in FIG. 7, the CPU 21 increases or decreases the BPM value according to individual conditions of age, BMI value, and systolic blood pressure value. In the present embodiment, the increase / decrease of BPM is assumed to be ± 5 according to each condition.

  First, the CPU 21 increases or decreases the BPM according to the age of the user 41. If the age is less than 40 years (S71: YES), the CPU 21 increases BPM by 5 (S72), and proceeds to S73. If the age is between 40 and 60 (S71: NO, S78: YES), the CPU 21 proceeds to S79 without increasing or decreasing the BPM. When the age is less than 40 (S71: NO, S78: NO), the CPU 21 decreases BPM by 5 (S84), and proceeds to S86.

  The CPU 21 increases or decreases the BPM according to the age, and then increases or decreases the BPM according to the BMI value. In the present embodiment, the CPU 21 does not increase the BPM according to the BMI value, but decreases it. When the BMI value is 25 or more, the CPU 21 decreases the BPM by 5 (S73: NO, S74 / S79: NO, S81 / S86: NO, S89). When the BMI is less than 25 (S73: YES / S79: YES / S86: YES), the CPU 21 does not increase or decrease the BPM, and proceeds to S76, S82, and S87, respectively.

  The CPU 21 increases or decreases BPM according to the BMI value, and then increases or decreases BPM according to the systolic blood pressure value. Similarly to the above, the CPU 21 does not increase the BPM according to the systolic blood pressure value, but decreases it. When the maximum blood pressure value is 160 or more, the CPU 21 decreases BPM by 5 (S76: NO, S77 / S82: NO, S83 / S87: NO, S88 / S91: NO, S92), and proceeds to S93. When the maximum blood pressure value is less than 160 (S76: YES / S82: YES / S87: YES / S91: YES), the CPU 21 proceeds to S93 without increasing or decreasing the BPM.

  The CPU 21 associates the BPM increase / decrease width (size) performed in the processes of S71 to S92 with the genre employed in the exercise timetable determined in S3, as shown in FIG. In the example of FIG. 6, the CPU 21 sets +5 as an increase / decrease value of the BPM for each genre adopted in the execution order 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

  In the exercise creation process of FIG. 3, the CPU 21 calls the exercise level determination process (S6). In the exercise level determination process shown in FIG. 8, the CPU 21 determines the exercise level (S106 to S111) according to the rank of the user 41 (S101 to S104). As described above, the CPU 21 determines the exercise of the exercise level appropriate for the rank as the main exercise. Moreover, CPU21 determines the exercise | movement of the level close | similar to the exercise level of a main exercise | movement as a submotion. Then, the CPU 21 assigns the main exercise to each of the genres adopted in the timetable in S3 at a rate higher than that of the sub exercise.

  Specifically, when the rank of the user 41 is 1 (S101: YES), the CPU 21 sets the exercise at the exercise level 4 as the main exercise (indicated by ★ in FIG. 8). CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates main exercise to a genre as 80%. Further, the CPU 21 sets the exercise at the exercise level 3 as a sub exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates a secondary exercise to a genre to 20% (S102).

  When the rank of the user 41 is 2 (S101: NO, S103: YES), the CPU 21 sets exercise of exercise level 3 as the main exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates main exercise to a genre to 70%. Moreover, CPU21 makes exercise of exercise level 2 and exercise level 4 a subsidiary exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates a secondary exercise to a genre, exercise level 2 is 10%, and exercise level 4 is 20% (S104).

  When the rank of the user 41 is 3 (S101: NO, S103: NO, S106: YES), the CPU 21 sets exercise of exercise level 3 as the main exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates main exercise to a genre to 70%. Moreover, CPU21 makes exercise of exercise level 2 and exercise level 4 a subsidiary exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates a secondary exercise to a genre, exercise level 2 is 20%, and exercise level 4 is 10% (S107).

  When the rank of the user 41 is 4 (S101: NO, S103: NO, S106: NO, S108: YES), the CPU 21 sets exercise of exercise level 2 as the main exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates main exercise to a genre to 70%. Moreover, CPU21 makes exercise of exercise level 1 and exercise level 3 a subsidiary exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates a secondary exercise to a genre, exercise level 1 is 20%, and exercise level 3 is 10% (S109).

  When the rank of the user 41 is 5 (S101: NO, S103: NO, S106: NO, S108: NO), the CPU 21 sets exercise of exercise level 1 as the main exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates main exercise to a genre as 80%. Moreover, CPU21 makes exercise of exercise level 2 a sub-exercise. CPU21 sets the ratio which allocates a secondary exercise to a genre to 20% (S111).

  Thus, CPU21 sets the ratio of the main exercise | movement and a secondary exercise | movement allocated to a genre according to the rank of the user 41. FIG. Then, the CPU 21 assigns the main exercise or the sub-exercise to each of the genres adopted in the timetable according to the set ratio (S112). That is, CPU21 sets the exercise | movement according to the genre and the exercise level to each genre of the timetable, and completes the timetable. The CPU 21 returns to the exercise creation process of FIG.

  Next, the CPU 21 performs exercise creation and distribution processing (S7). The CPU 21 reproduces the motion of each exercise constituting the exercise with CG according to the completed timetable. The CPU 21 creates a CG image in which the instructor 42 performs a model exercise. Note that a specific method for creating a motion video by CG is well-known, and a description thereof will be omitted. Moreover, CPU21 changes BPM of the music played as BGM as determined by S4. The CPU 21 creates exercise data by matching the operation timing of the exercise operation of the instructor 42 with the BPM of the music. The CPU 21 distributes the exercise data to the terminal device 5 of the user 41. As shown in FIG. 1, the user 41 performs an exercise to move the body using a CG image distributed from the exercise support device 2 and displayed on the monitor 67 as an example. The CPU 21 returns to the main process of the exercise support program.

  As described above, the exercise support device 2 of the present embodiment can set a rank according to age and body composition. Since an appropriate rank according to physical strength is set, the user can perform the exercise shown in the exercise without difficulty. In addition, the exercise support apparatus 2 sets different ranks depending on body composition fluctuations. The exercises that reflect it are different from those before the body composition changes. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the user from getting bored with the exercise due to the presentation of only the exercise with the same content.

  When the BMI value and the blood pressure value information are used as the body composition information and both are smaller than the predetermined value, the exercise support device 2 can set the exercise load at a higher level. On the other hand, if it is higher than the predetermined value, the exercise load can be set to a middle level. Furthermore, if both are high, the exercise load can be set to a lower stage. Different exercise loads can be set in response to gradual changes in body composition. Therefore, the exercise support apparatus 2 can suppress the presentation of the exercise with the same content for a long period of time by using two types of body composition information that are difficult to change to reflect the transient change, and the user gets bored with the exercise. Can be suppressed.

  The exercise support device 2 can adjust the load applied to the user by exercise according to the length of exercise time. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the exercise with the same content for a long time as an exercise. Therefore, the tiredness of the user 41 can be suppressed. In addition, the exercise support apparatus 2 incorporates the break time into the exercise, so that the user can recover from fatigue temporarily and continue the exercise. Therefore, the exercise support device 2 can further enhance the effect generated on the user's body by the exercise. Moreover, BPM can be increased or decreased according to age. Therefore, the effect of exercise obtained according to BPM can be enhanced. Moreover, since the exercise support apparatus 2 can reduce BPM according to the body composition, the user can perform the exercise shown in the exercise without difficulty.

  The exercise support apparatus 2 can generate an exercise by combining the main exercise and the auxiliary exercise in a state in which the main exercise is included in the exercise configuration at a larger ratio than the auxiliary exercise. If there is no change in age and body composition, the rank does not change, and an exercise with the same load according to the rank may be presented for an extended period of time as an exercise. In such a case, the exercise support device 2 can generate lesson information including not only the main exercise that can obtain the load reflecting the rank but also the secondary exercise that reflects the rank smaller or larger than the main exercise.

  In addition, the structure and operation | movement of the exercise assistance apparatus 2 of this embodiment demonstrated above are examples. It goes without saying that the present invention can be variously modified. For example, the BMI value and the systolic blood pressure value are listed as body composition information, but this is only an example. As body composition information, for example, heart rate, bone density, body fat percentage, and the like may be targeted. In addition, more information including these pieces of information may be used as a reference for setting exercise load.

  In the exercise time determination process, the exercise time is set to be selectable for 50 minutes, 40 minutes, 30 minutes, and 20 minutes depending on the rank and exercise type. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the exercise time may be arbitrarily set in units of finer time. The rank level is not limited to five levels. The rank may be set at more stages. Or you may enable it to set a rank in a less stage. Also, the exercise level is not limited to four levels. The exercise level may also be set at more stages. Or you may enable it to set in a fewer step.

  The adoption of genres for the timetable was decided based on the frequency of adoption. Not limited to this, it may be determined by selecting a plurality of timetables in which a genre is adopted from a table prepared in advance according to the frequency of adoption of the genre. Similarly, the assignment of the main motion and the sub-motion may be selected from a table in which a plurality of timetables to which the main motion and the sub-motion are assigned are prepared according to the ratio set in advance according to the rank.

  In the present embodiment, the exercise corresponds to “lesson information”. In S11, the CPU 21 that acquires the age information input by the user 41 corresponds to the “first acquisition unit”. The CPU 21 that acquires the body composition information input by the user 41 in S12 corresponds to the “second acquisition unit”. In the process of determining the rank of the user 41, in S13 and S17, the CPU 21 that sets the rank according to the age using the age as a criterion is equivalent to the “first setting means”. In the process of determining the rank of the user 41, in S14, S16, S18 to S23, the CPU 21 that sets the rank according to the body composition using the body composition (BMI value and systolic blood pressure value) as a criterion is “second setting means”. Is equivalent to. In S112, the CPU 21 that generates the exercise by assigning the exercise of the main exercise and the exercise of the sub-exercise to the exercise timetable corresponds to the “generating means”.

  The BMI value “25” corresponds to the “first predetermined value”, and the systolic blood pressure value “160” corresponds to the “second predetermined value”. In S <b> 2, the CPU 21 that executes the exercise time determination process corresponds to “first determination means”. In S <b> 4, the CPU 21 that executes the BPM determination process corresponds to a “third setting unit”. In S <b> 6, the CPU 21 that executes the exercise level determination process corresponds to “second determination means”.
