Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/960,116, filed Sep. 17, 2007.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates generally to personal exercise routine development and, more particularly, relates to a custom exercise video website that permits a user to download exercise video demonstrations with audio instruction and user-selectable musical accompaniment to a PC, iPod® (ipod is a registered trademark of Apple, Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), MP3, or other media playback device.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Exercise routines, such as aerobic exercise routines, strength training routines, and flexibility training routines are available from books, television, DVD's and the Internet. Exercise clubs and gyms provide even more specific exercise opportunities. Following routines provided in books, television, the Internet, clubs, or gyms can often improve an individual's level of fitness. However, these routines are usually predetermined and directed to broad categories of individuals. For example, an exercise routine, such as a strength training program, may be directed to intermediate weight training students and may meet the needs of a twenty-five year old male, but it will seldom meet the specific needs of a twenty-five year old male who has very aggressive weight training goals.
- Routines that are not tailored to an individual's needs often do not help the individual efficiently meet his/her goals. A workout plan from a book also does not provide the motivation that comes from a custom video demonstration designed to address a specific fitness regimen. An individual who is unable to efficiently meet his/her goals due to a lack of a customized exercise program is likely to become discouraged and discontinue his/her exercise routine.
- Thus a customized exercise video website solving the aforementioned problems is desired.
- The custom exercise video website embodies a computer-implemented method for development of a personal fitness/wellness training regimen that is uniquely tailored to an individual user's needs. The website provides a user interface that can accept user inputs related to the user's desire for physical therapy and/or exercise of a body part, muscle group or series of muscle groups. Based on the user inputs, system processing creates a video playlist linking discrete exercise video clips together to form a unique exercise video consistent with the user's abilities, desires, and training goals. A user-selectable running time is also provided. The website provides an option to add a user specified music track to the exercise video. The music volume will automatically adjust down when the audio from the clips is on. The video is formatted in a digital file that can be played by a variety of media players.
- These and other features of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.

To facilitate the dynamic nature of the web pages served up according to the inventive structures and methods described herein, an exemplary web server may be configured to run PHP hypertext preprocessor (PHP) server side scripting, or the Microsoft® Active Server Pages server side scripting (ASP.net), or the like. WhileFIG. 1A illustrates asingle application server 105, web server and application server software may be implemented in a distributed processing environment across a plurality of hardware devices capable of running the website software. - Utilizing web-enabled
device 120, the user may direct his or her web browser to the address or Universal Resource Locator (“URL”) ofserver 105 to access web pages and forms, such as HTML, XTML, Common Gateway Interface (“CGI”), JAVA, JAVASCRIPT, all of which are well known within the art. -
Server 105 provides the user with various drag and drop options to create a customized exercise video by arranging a variety of exercise video clips in a user-specified order of play. The video clips may be in the form of any of many well-known digital video formats, such as Moving Picture Experts Group (“MPEG”), Quick Time container file (“MOV”) or Windows Media Video (“WMV”). The system provides means for downloading the aforementioned files to a user device, such as a personal computer, personal media player, ipod, MP3, or other multimedia playback device. -
User computing system 120 may be any web-enabled device, such as, but not limited to, a personal computer (PC), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a smartphone, or the like. Preferably, the user may view the website on the aforementioned devices and download the video clips to a client application to be mixed with music and re-encoded. - As shown in
FIG. 1B , the website provides a user interface that includesuser login screen 160. The user may gain access to the features of the custom exercise video website by logging into the system with a username and password entry onlogin web page 160. As shown inFIG. 2 , after the website has validated the user's name and password, the website presents an exerciseselection web page 200. -
Exercise selection page 200 may display a list of image hypertext links to multimedia clips describing a variety of exercises, which the user may select. For example, if the “shoulder” exercise is selected by the user, exercises 202 a-202 e may be presented as a list of exercise names, which may be accompanied by corresponding thumbnail images onexercise selection page 200. The website provides a drag and drop feature, which allows the user to drag any of the presented exercise names and/or thumbnails shown across theexercise selection page 200 and drop the selected exercise name and/or thumbnail to videoclip sequencing area 205. - While the exemplary order of play sequencing from start to finish is shown in video
clip sequencing area 205 in a top to bottom manner, it is also contemplated that the order of play may be displayed in a left to right manner, right to left manner, clockwise manner, counterclockwise manner, or the like. The user may drag and drop a desired number of video clips selectable from the exercise group shown in clips 202 a-202 e from theexercise selection page 200 into a desired order of play in the mediaclip sequencing area 205 of theexercise selection page 200. - Moreover, the user may drag and drop a single clip any desired number of times to create a user-determined number of sets of that exercise. Additionally, the user may preview the customized exercise video or media program he/she has just created. As shown in
FIG. 2 , a user selected from video clips 202 a-202 e to create a customized video sequence comprising, in sequential order,video clip 202 d, then video clip 202 b, thenvideo clip 202 a. - The
system 100 optionally may provide a media player 210 on the web page, which may be displayed in preview-download screen area 207. If provided, media player 210 allows the user to preview and then download the customized video movie or media exercise program. The media player 210 may have a play/pause button 211, areverse button 209 a, and an advance button 209 b. - The user may review and edit the customized program outlined in the video
clip sequencing area 205 by using a mouse or other control to delete clips, add clips, or rearrange clip sequences in thesequencing area 205. Once the user is satisfied with his/her exercise media program,download button 213 may be activated to initiate download of the program to the user'scomputing device 120 or a storage device for a media player. - The
website 100 may also provide for downloading a client resident computer program, applet, application, script, or the like, which is capable of adding a user-selected music track to the exercise video. The client application includes automated sound mixing that fades the music down to a background level, thus assuring that sections of the media program having verbal instructions concerning the exercise routine being viewed are in the foreground and clearly audible. - The website may be implemented in software, firmware or some combination thereof. The programming language is not critical because the required video clip sequences and playlist arrangements can be processed using a variety of well-known languages, including “C”, Java, “C++”, C sharp (“C#”) Adobe® FLEX, ASP.net, or the like. Soundtrack software for user development of a soundtrack synchronized to the video clip sequences can be in the form of an Apple® Itunes® interface, such as a Quicktime® API. Additional music media interfaces that can synchronize WAV files, MPG files, MID files, or the like are contemplated as being within the scope of the invention.
- The website implements a computerized method having steps that include: providing a
membership info page 160 to the user; providing login username and password fields to allow the user to sign into the exercise video website associated withmembership info page 160; providing username and password creation fields for new users who do not have an existing username and password; providing atransaction processor server 106 to allow users to purchase exercise video running times in predetermined duration amounts; presenting groups of exercises in the form of hypertext mark-up language (HTML) links selectable by the user; and displaying a plurality of exercise video clips based on a user-selected HTML link that represents a particular exercise group desired by the user. - For example, the left-hand side of
exercise selection page 200 has a list of therapy exercise groups that the user may choose from, including CERVICAL, SHOULDER, WRIST/HAND, BACK/LUMBAR SPINE, HIP/KNEE, ANKLE/FOOT, CORE/TRUNK, and THERAPEUTIC BALL. When the user chooses a specific body area from the list, e.g., SHOULDER, a list of shoulder exercises available will appear in a drop down menu 290. As the user “clicks” on an exercise in the drop down menu 290, a thumbnail of that exercise will appear on the right. As shown inFIG. 2 , the user has selected five shoulder exercises from the drop down menu and the system software has placed their names and corresponding thumbnail pictures 202 a-202 e to the right of the menu 290. Thesystem 100 provides a drag and drop feature that allows the user to add a desired exercise to the video playlist inscreen area 205. - Providing user interface functions, such as drag and drop and media player controls, allows the user to arrange play order of the exercises in any manner, thereby creating a playlist of the video clips (exemplary order of play being 202 d then 202 b then 202 a). Optional provision of a media player allows the user to preview his/her playlist of video clips. Providing an edit function allows the user to add, delete, and rearrange the order of play of the video clips comprising the exercise video movie. Providing a download function allows the user to download the complete exercise video to the user's
computing device 120 or a storage medium for a media player. - A client-side computer program may be provided to allow the user to mix in a user-selected soundtrack. A client-side computer program may also be provided to automatically adjust the music down in portions of the audio or video having verbal instructions relating to the exercise being viewed.
- After the final touch of adding the music soundtrack, the user created exercise program is ready for playback on the user's
device 120.
