Sensors-based adaptation of training program

A computer system comprising:

• at least one memory storing a database comprising sensor-acquired measurement data of physical exercises the user has performed, the measurement data comprising at least one of heart activity measurement data and motion measurement data, wherein the measurement data has been acquired by a wrist device worn by the user during the physical exercises, the wrist device comprising at least one of a heart activity sensor and a motion sensor;
• and
• a processing system configured to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a user input to select a weekly template for the training program, the weekly template comprising a training schedule comprising a plurality of pre-programmed repeating exercises on the weekly template;
• receiving a user input indicating a repeating exercise the user indicates to perform outside the training program;
• acquiring from the database on the basis of the user input indicating the repeating exercise, measurement data of past one or more physical exercises of the repeating exercise;
• computing, on the basis of the measurement data, at least one quantitative training-effect parameter comprising at least one of a training benefit based on accumulated time in heart-rate zones, a cardio load computed from training impulse, and a muscle load computed from measured mechanical power and duration, and determine at least one repeating physical exercise of the training schedule providing a training effect closest to the training effect of the past one or more physical exercises;
• automatically adapting, by execution of computer instructions, the training schedule by replacing the determined at least one repeating physical exercise of the training schedule with exercises of the repeating exercise the user indicates to perform outside the training program;
• and
• outputting, via a user interface, on a display of the wrist device, real-time instructions for the user to follow the adapted training schedule.

A computer program product embodied on a non-transitory distribution medium readable by a computer and comprising program instructions which, when loaded and executed by the computer, execute a computer process comprising:

• storing a database comprising sensor-acquired measurement data of physical exercises the user has performed, the measurement data comprising at least one of heart activity measurement data and motion measurement data, wherein the measurement data has been acquired by a wrist device worn by the user during the physical exercises, the wrist device comprising at least one of a heart activity sensor and a motion sensor;
• receiving a user input to select a weekly template for the training program, the weekly template comprising a training schedule comprising a plurality of pre-programmed repeating exercises on the weekly template;
• receiving a user input indicating a repeating exercise the user indicates to perform outside the training program;
• acquiring, from the database on the basis of the user input indicating the repeating exercise, measurement data of past one or more physical exercises of the repeating exercise;
• computing, on the basis of the measurement data, at least one quantitative training-effect parameter comprising at least one of a training benefit based on accumulated time in heart-rate zones, a cardio load computed from training impulse, and a muscle load computed from measured mechanical power and duration, and determining at least one repeating physical exercise of the training schedule providing a training effect closest to the training effect of the past one or more physical exercises;
• automatically adapting, by execution of computer instructions, the training schedule by replacing the determined at least one repeating physical exercise of the training schedule with exercises of the repeating exercise the user indicates to perform outside the training program;
• and
• outputting, via a user interface, on a display of the wrist device, real-time, instructions for the user to follow the adapted training schedule.
