Methods for estimating maximal oxygen uptake and next total exercise time

Abstract

A method for estimating a maximal oxygen uptake by obtaining personal physiological data and exercise data, comprising the following steps: receive physiological data from a first sensor; a processing module estimates a physical power consumption rate on the basis of the physiological data; the processing module calculates a current total exercise time on the basis of the physical power consumption rate; the processing module estimates an athletic ability on the basis of the current total exercise time; receive exercise data from a second sensor; the processing module calculates kinetic energy consumption on the basis of the exercise data; the processing module estimates an average oxygen uptake on the basis of the kinetic energy consumption; the processing module estimates a maximal oxygen uptake on the basis of the average oxygen uptake and the athletic ability; send the maximal oxygen uptake to a user interface; and display the maximal oxygen uptake on the user interface. Also provided are a method for estimating a next total exercise time, and a method for obtaining a total exercise time in a specific environment by correcting the next total exercise time on the basis of environmental conditions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a motion monitoring method. More specifically, the present invention relates to an exercise monitoring method that utilizes the user's physical strength to monitor the user's real-time maximum oxygen consumption and / or predict the result of the user's next exercise. Background technique [0002] Sports in modern society have become more and more popular. In addition to professional athletes, many people not only exercise for their health, but also want to know how they perform in sports. Traditionally, this can only be accurately achieved through physical fitness testing in a laboratory using a variety of testing equipment. Or, help them understand their performance by hiring a personal trainer. [0003] Recently, various types of sports performance evaluations have been rapidly developed and used by professional athletes, sports enthusiasts, fitness trainers, and even individuals. VO2max is widely used and proven effective...

Problems solved by technology

However, in order to monitor and analyze changes in respiration rate, oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, etc., the maximum oxygen consumption of each individual cannot be easily obtained without spending an hour on a treadmill in the laboratory with a mouthpiece used to receive the breath

Therefore, this method is not convenient for capturing a person's athletic performance during daily athletic practice or training
