MACHINE-LEARNED EXERCISE CAPABILITY PREDICTION MODEL

An exercise recommendation system determines recommended weights for users to perform exercises with. The exercise recommendation system accesses a plurality of exercise pairs, each labeled with performance statistics of users who performed the exercises. Each exercise in an exercise pair is associated with a weight. The exercise recommendation system trains a machine learning model on the plurality of exercise pairs to determine a weight to recommend to a user for a first exercise based on performance statistics of the user associated with one or more second exercises, which are each in an exercise pair with the first exercise. The exercise recommendation system retrieves performance statistics of a target user including weights for exercises previously performed by the target user. The exercise recommendation system applies the machine learning model to the performance statistics to determine a target weight to recommend and modifies a user interface to include the target weight.

DETERMINING A USER'S CURRENT EXERCISE CAPABILITY

An exercise recommendation system determines a current capability of a user. The exercise recommendation system accesses an exercise history for a user. The exercise history comprises an exercise performed by the user and a capability of the user each time the user performed the exercise. The exercise recommendation system partitions the exercise history into a plurality of time periods, and, for each time period, computes an aggregate capability of the user for the exercise during the time period. The exercise recommendation system calculates a moving average capability of the user for the exercise based on the aggregate capabilities and determines a current capability of the user for the exercise based on the moving average capability. The current capability of the user may be discounted at least in part based on how recently the user performed the exercise.

Methods and systems are provided for measuring anatomical dimensions from a single two-dimensional (2D) digital image. The digital image is taken from the front/anterior view using a mobile, handheld communication device. The linear measurements are used to estimate the body volume of the individual. Total body density is calculated from estimated body volume and body weight. Body composition (fat mass and fat-free mass) of the individual is derived from density using known mathematical conversion formulas. A method for estimating body composition analysis is provided. Systems and methods are provided that determine an individual's fitness by determining body composition of the individual using a picture of the individual, determining the individual's VO.sub.2 max based on the individual's movement (e.g., walking and/or running a measured distance over a measured amount of time), and determining the individual's fitness based on the body composition and the determined VO.sub.2 max.
