- Weight training, which is also called Isotonic training, is a type of strength training for developing the strength and size of skeletal muscles. It uses the weight force of gravity to oppose the force generated by muscle through concentric or eccentric contraction. Weight training uses a variety of specialized equipment to target specific muscle groups and types of movement, wherein weight machines are most popular and widely used.
- In general, a coach or trainer plans an exercise menu or program based on physical conditions of a trainee and the specific muscle groups which the trainee wants to develop, and the exercise menu may include a type of exercise, a movement, a weight, a number of repetitions, and a number of sets. Under a circumstance that the trainee can use the equipment correctly, the trainee may perform the weight training by himself according to the exercise menu. After the weight training is finished, the trainee may report to the trainer about his achievement to discuss whether a difficulty of the exercise menu is proper or not, such that the trainer may accordingly modify and plan the exercise menu for the next weight training.
- However, there maybe a communication gap between the trainee and the trainer due to a lack of numerical reference records for the weight training, such as the type of exercise, the movement, the weight, the number of repetitions, and the number of sets that the trainee actually performed during the weight training. When using only verbal discussions, the trainee and trainer may not be able to objectively judge whether contents and the difficulty of the exercise menu is proper or not.

The connection status D_stu is used for indicating whether thecommunication unit 11 of theexercise recording device 10 is communicating withother communication units communication unit 11 is connected with other communication units or thecommunication unit 11 has transmitted/received data successfully when the connection status D_stu emits a blue light; and thecommunication unit 11 is not connected to any communication unit or thecommunication unit 11 fails to transmit/receive data when the connection status D_stu emits a red light. Therefore, the connection status D_stu may indicate whether theexercise recording device 10 has successfully transmitted/received data to ensure an intactness of the exercise record E_rcd. - Furthermore, the
processor 12 may generate the display signal D_sig according to the current exercise record E_rcd to display an exercise progress E_prg on thedisplay 15. The exercise progress E_prg is used for indicating a progress of an exercise item that the trainee is performing. For example, half or over half of the exercise item has been performed (e.g. the trainee has performed eight times of the suggested number of repetitions fifteen times) when the exercise progress E_prg emits a yellow light; one quarter of the exercise item is left to be completely performed (e.g. the trainee has performed twelve times of the suggested number of repetitions fifteen times) when the exercise progress E_prg emits an orange light; and the exercise item has been completely performed (e.g. the trainee has performed fifteen times) when exercise progress E_prg emits a green light. In addition, the exercise progress E_prg may be denoted with a block or cube representing a specific exercise item, which means the more green cubes there are, the more exercise items have been completely performed. - Please refer to
FIG. 2 andFIG. 3 at one time,FIG. 3 illustrates theexercise recording device 10 and a partial appearance of theexercise equipment 20. Take a weight machine for example, the weight machine is generally equipped with a plurality of stacks having a same weight, the trainee may move a location of a latch to adjust a number of stacks and determine a strength or loading of each movement. The plurality ofcommunication units 21 may be respectively disposed on one of the stacks or at locations corresponding to one of the stacks of theexercise equipment 20 to transmit the strength or loading of each movement to theexercise recording device 10. - In
FIG. 2 , theexercise recording device 10 further includes aholder 16 for holding theexercise recording device 10, such that theexercise recording device 10 may be attached to or removed from theholder 16. InFIG. 3 , the trainee may remove theexercise recording device 10 from theholder 16 and place theexercise recording device 10 onto alatch 22 of theexercise equipment 20 before using theexercise equipment 20, which is assumed to be a weight machine. Thecommunication unit 11 may read the equipment information W_info to record a machine code of theexercise equipment 20 and a weight (e.g. eight kilograms of the stacks) by communicating with thecommunication unit 21 of theexercise equipment 20. In addition, when using a treadmill, the trainee may place theexercise recording device 10 onto theholder 16 to wear theexercise recording device 10 on his or her wrist. - In general, every time that the trainee performs one movement on the weight machine, the stacks of the weight machine are vertically lifted and dropped once, which allows the trainee to train his muscle by repeatedly performing the movement. The
gravity sensor 14 is used for sensing a vertical movement to generate the sensing signal G_sig, such that theprocessor 12 accumulates a number of repetitions according to the sensing signal G_sig. For example, as the trainee performs one movement, thegravity sensor 14 may sense one vertical movement and output the sensing signal G_sig to theprocessor 12. Theprocessor 12 may accumulate the number of repetitions once the sensing signal G_sig is received to display a current number of repetitions on thedisplay 15, i.e.FIG. 2 illustrates thirteen times of the current number of repetitions. - On the other hand, some of the weight machines are designed for multifunction, which allows the trainee to train different muscle group by different usages, but the stacks are the same. In other words, an exercise machine having a machine code and a set of stacks may be used to perform multiple exercises, and thus different types of exercise are introduced. Hence, to identify different types of exercise, additional communication units may be disposed on the
exercise equipment 20 for transmitting the equipment information W_info indicating the type of exercise to theexercise recording device 10. As shown inFIG. 4 , theexercise equipment 20 further includes a plurality ofcommunication units 23 for transmitting the equipment information W_info indicating the type of exercise to theexercise recording device 10. - In such a structure, during the weight training, the
exercise recording device 10 may guide the trainee to perform suggested exercise items according to the exercise menu E_menu, and theexercise recording device 10 may instantly demonstrate information such as an exercise progress and an achievement rate to record the exercise record E_rcd thorough the weight training. Of course, the trainee may adjust the weight of the stacks based on physical conditions during the weight training. - After the trainee has completed the weight training, the exercise menu E_menu and the corresponding exercise record E_rcd may be transmitted to the
exercise database 30 by thecommunication unit 11 of theexercise recording device 10. Theexercise database 30 may receive theexercise recording device 10 by thecommunication unit 31 to store in the storingunit 33. As a result, the trainer may plan the content of the next exercise menu E_menu according to the current exercise menu E_menu and the exercise record E_rcd, so as to meet practical requirements of the trainee. - Specifically, please refer to
FIG. 5 , which is a schematic diagram of an exercise menu E_menu according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown inFIG. 5 , a first exercise item indicated by the exercise menu E_menu is warm-up, and the type of exercise/machine code is E, the duration is five minutes and the movements includes head stretch, arm twist and abdominal stretch. A second exercise item indicated by the exercise menu E_menu is running, and the type of exercise/machine code is R3, the duration is thirty minutes, and the movements includes level one to level five, level five to level fifteen, level two to level ten. A third item indicated by the exercise menu E_menu is leg kick, and the type of exercise/machine code is L2, the duration is fifteen minutes, the number of repetitions is five, the weight is four pounds, and the number of set is three. A fourth exercise item indicated by the exercise menu E_menu is dumbbell, and the type of exercise/machine code is H4, the duration is eighteen minutes, the number of repetitions is six, the weight is five pounds, and the number of set is three. In addition, the exercise menu E_menu also indicates a rest time between two exercise items. For example, a rest time between the running and the leg kick is five minutes, a rest time between the leg kick and the dumbbell is three minutes. - Please refer to
FIG. 6 , which is a schematic diagram of an exercise record E_rcd according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown inFIG. 6 , corresponding to the exercise menu E_menu shown inFIG. 5 , the exercise record E_rcd records that the trainee has completed the running, leg kick and dumbbell items, and the achievement rate shown in the display is one hundred percent. - Moreover, the
communication unit - To sum up, the exercise recording system of the present invention may collect exercise records and transmit exercise records to the exercise database with the exercise recording device, so as to provide the numerical data (e.g. movement, a number of repetitions, a number of sets, duration, a type of exercise, a machine code and weight that the trainee is actually performed during the weight training) to both of the trainee and the trainer, which may improve a communication barrier between the trainee and the trainer. As a result, the trainer may objectively review the achievement rate of the weight training according to the current exercise record to plan the next exercise menu. Or, the trainee may also review the current exercise record and ask for further requirements to reach better efficiency and effectiveness of the weight training.
- Those skilled in the art will readily observe that numerous modifications and alterations of the device and method may be made while retaining the teachings of the invention. Accordingly, the above disclosure should be construed as limited only by the metes and bounds of the appended claims.
