Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of elderly people's exercise monitoring, and in particular to a method for monitoring elderly people's exercise load based on a wrist watch. Background Art
[0002] The body's disease resistance of the elderly gradually weakens, and their organs gradually age. Therefore, it is very necessary for the elderly to do fitness exercises.
[0003] Swimming, brisk walking, jogging, cycling, and all aerobic exercises can exercise the heart. Aerobic exercise has many benefits: it can exercise the heart and lungs, enhance the function of the circulatory system, burn fat, increase lung capacity, lower blood pressure, and even prevent diabetes and reduce the occurrence of heart disease.
[0004] However, incorrect exercise methods will not only fail to enhance the physical fitness of the elderly, but will also cause soft tissue damage and degeneration, increase the heart's load capacity and affect the elasticity of lung tissue, causing symptoms such as hypoxia and dyspnea. Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a method for monitoring the exercise load of the elderly based on wrist watches. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of this section is to summarize some aspects of the embodiments of the present invention and briefly introduce some preferred embodiments.
