Automated customization of output intensity from a fitness apparatus
11351371 · 2022-06-07 · ·

An intensity of fitness apparatus output can be customized for a user during a workout session. A user profile of the user may be accessed to determine a starting intensity value at which output is to be provided by the user's fitness apparatus. Based on this starting intensity value and on command data associated with a workout session, an intensity profile for the user may be determined (e.g., created), which is usable for controlling an intensity of the output of the fitness apparatus during the workout session. While media content featuring an instructor conducting the workout session is output on an output device, the user's device may send commands to the fitness apparatus to control the intensity of the output of the fitness apparatus in accordance with the starting intensity value and, subsequently, the intensity profile of the user.
