本実施形態において、 運動プログラム算出手段 3 0 0は現身体外形データおよび 希望身体外形データに基づいて運動プログラムを算出するが、 これに限られない。 例えば、 運動プログラム算出手段は、 外形情報取得手段 1 1 0により取得された 3 次元データ、 現体重情報取得手段 1 2 0により取得された現体重データ、 現体脂肪 率情報取得手段 1 3 0により取得された現体脂肪率データ、 食事情報取得手段 1 4 0により取得された食事データのいずれかまたはこれらの組み合わせを現身体情報 として用いてもよレ、。これらの組み合わせが現身体情報として用いられた場合には、 運動プログラムがより適格に算出される。  In the present embodiment, the exercise program calculating means 300 calculates the exercise program based on the current body outline data and the desired body outline data, but is not limited thereto. For example, the exercise program calculating means includes three-dimensional data obtained by the outer shape information obtaining means 110, current weight data obtained by the current weight information obtaining means 120, and actual fat percentage information obtaining means 130. Either the obtained actual fat percentage data, the dietary data obtained by the dietary information obtaining means 140 or a combination thereof may be used as the current physical information. If these combinations are used as current physical information, the exercise program will be calculated more appropriately.
さらに、 運動プログラム算出手段 3 0 0は、 希望外形情報入力手段 2 1 0により 入力された希望身体外形データ、 希望体重情報入力手段 2 2 0により入力された希 望体重データ、 希望体脂肪率情報入力手段 2 3 0により入力された希望体脂肪率デ ータのいずれかまたはこれらの組み合わせを希望身体情報として用いてもよい。 こ れらの組み合わせが希望身体情報として用いられた場合には、 対象者がより関心の あるデータの項目を実現するための運動プログラムが適格に算出される。  Further, the exercise program calculating means 300 includes the desired body shape data input by the desired shape information input means 210, the desired weight data input by the desired weight information input means 220, and the desired body fat percentage information.

The exercise program calculating means 300 equally divides the exercise time of the exercise program calculated based on the current physical information and the desired physical information by a predetermined number of days from the reference date. The predetermined number of days may be fixed at, for example, 60 days, or may be read by the exercise program means 300 upon receiving an input from the subject. The exercise program calculating means 300 calculates a physical change based on the equally divided exercise time, assuming that the exercise program has been practiced for the exercise time. The exercise program calculating means 300 creates intermediate physical information based on the physical change and the current physical information. The exercise program calculating means 300 stores the intermediate physical information in association with the reference date and the number of days from the reference date. The exercise program calculating means 300 is composed of the intermediate physical information after a specific number of days from the reference date and the history 6100 stored on the history storing means 600 on the same day. Compare the current physical information. As a result of this comparison, when the exercise program calculating means 300 determines that the result of the calculated exercise program has not been improved, it calculates the exercise program again.
