Referring to FIG. 2 in more detail, test information is received from the trainer terminal (S111). Here, the test information includes a trainer identifier, customer information, and an exercise event. Here, the customer information includes the customer's gender, age, customer identifier, occupation, and the like, and the sports events are sports events that the customer wants to receive training for, for example, fitness, golf, volleyball, and badminton.

According to the trainer identifier, the personalized musculoskeletal test items mapped to the trainer are searched in the database, and among the retrieved personalized musculoskeletal test items, the personalized musculoskeletal test items corresponding to the customer information or exercise category are determined and the determined personalized musculoskeletal test items are determined. is provided to the trainer terminal (S113). Here, the personalized musculoskeletal test item is determined as a personalized musculoskeletal test item matching the customer information or exercise item among the trainer's personalized musculoskeletal test items.

Receives the trainer's evaluation index for the personalized musculoskeletal test item (S115), retrieves contents for the personalized exercise guide information mapped to the trainer identifier, customer information, exercise event, and evaluation index in the database unit 137 The searched personalized exercise guide information is provided to the trainer terminal (S117). Here, the personalized exercise guide information is determined as personalized exercise guide information in which customer information, exercise item, and evaluation index match among the trainer's personalized exercise guide information. Depending on the field to which the present invention is applied, customer information or personalized musculoskeletal test items corresponding to an exercise event are not stored in the database unit, or personalized exercise guide information mapped to customer information, exercise item, or evaluation index is stored in the database unit. If it is not registered, the database unit provides preset musculoskeletal test items or preset exercise guide information to the trainer terminal. Personalized musculoskeletal system test items or personalized exercise guide information can be changed and used or registered in the electronic device 1000 .

Figure 3 is a flow chart for explaining a method for generating a personalized exercise consulting management program for the trainer.

Referring to FIG. 3 in more detail, when receiving information about a trainer identifier, customer information (age, gender, etc.), and sports event (eg, golf) from a trainer terminal, first mapping to customer information and sports event. The contents for the pre-set musculoskeletal test items are transmitted to the trainer terminal (S131).

The trainer creates personalized musculoskeletal test items by modifying or editing preset musculoskeletal test items according to his or her experience. The received personalized musculoskeletal examination item is updated and registered with content (S133). 8 shows an example of contents for preset musculoskeletal test items. As shown in FIG. 8 (a), the musculoskeletal test items are largely hand joint test items, ankle joint test items, elbow joint test items, and knee joint test items. It is divided into a total of 8 items, cervical spine test items, shoulder joint test items, thoracolumbar spine test items, and pelvis test items. You can select only some of the musculoskeletal system test items and modify and edit the contents for personalized musculoskeletal system test items. Based on customer information or sports events, the trainer can use the four detailed examination items as they are or select only some of them according to the trainer's experience and can modify and edit the contents for the personalized musculoskeletal examination items.

Meanwhile, based on customer information, exercise items, musculoskeletal test items, and evaluation indices for the musculoskeletal system test items, contents for predetermined exercise guide information stored in the database unit are transmitted to the trainer terminal (S135). The trainer modifies or edits the contents of the preset exercise guide information according to his or her experience to create the contents of the personalized exercise guide information. When the contents of the personalized exercise guide information are received from the trainer terminal, the preset exercise The content for the guide information is updated and registered as the content for the received personalized exercise guide information (S137).

When customer information or sports events are received by the trainer terminal in the future, contents for personalized musculoskeletal examination items matching customer information and sports events are provided, or contents corresponding to customer information, sports events, personalized musculoskeletal examination items, and evaluation indices are provided. It provides contents for personalized exercise guide information. Therefore, the trainer can receive and use a personalized exercise consulting management program.
