The present invention relates to a training system, and more particularly to a strength training system, which provides a detector installed an strength training equipment for providing statues data to the strength training system, the strength training system generates a report for the trainee.
If you want to do exercise in anytime you wanted, then doing exercise at home is your best choice. You may purchase some training machine, such as a jogging machine, indoor exercise bicycle, or indoor rowing machine etc. Above exercise machine may be provide a panel to adjust exercise machine and to show workout record. The exercise evaluates the exercise report through the workout record, and make an exercise plan according to the workout record. But a strength exercise machine doesn't provide such a panel to show workout record. The exerciser need to memory the workout record by himself. It is worth mentioning that not only the home strength exercise machine did not provide the panel to show workout record, but the strength exercise machine in the gym center also doesn't provide the panel to show work out.
To hire a personal trainer will help the exerciser to make an exercise plan and to give some advises and instructions. While the exerciser does strength exercise with the personal trainer, the personal trainer may be calculate the workout record. But if the exerciser utilizes does exercise without personal trainer, the workout record may be calculate by the exerciser. If the exerciser doesn't provide the workout record, the training plan may not achieve the expect result. If the strength exercise machine is able to monitor the exerciser to do exercise, the workout record is able to be generated by the strength exercise machine. The personal trainer make the exercise plan is more effective. A good personal trainer has more and more trainee, so make an appointment with the good trainer more and more difficult. But if the strength exercise machine is able to respond the workout record of the trainee, that will help the personal trainer to make an exercise plan.
If the exerciser is a business man, it means that the exerciser is able to do exercise everywhere, such as gym room of a hotel, gym center, or home. But the strength exercise machine cannot monitor the exerciser to do exercise, so that the exerciser just do strength exercise by himself instead of doing exercise according to the exercise plan. It is hard to achieve the expect result of the exercise plan. If the strength exercise machine is able to monitor the exercise that helps the exerciser does exercise stick to the plan, but there no such strength machine on the market.
