At least part of the subject information may be stored in a central repository for aggregation with other subject data, for analysis and reporting. Parameterized descriptions of exercises produce a binary string for each exercise, the resulting in a binary map of an entire exercise system, such as the PILATES system. Using a digital session planner, a practitioner selects from filtered lists of exercises to generate a customized exercise sequence for a subject. After the training session, the binary strings for the session are aggregated and a summary of the session displayed for user and/or practitioner. Session data may be uploaded to the repository for aggregation with data from other subjects/session for analysis and reporting. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A system for tracking and assessing subject response to programmed physical training comprising: a monitor for tracking and assessing subject response to programmed physical training, the monitor comprising: a display; a processor; and at least one memory; the system further comprising a remote data store communicatively coupled to said monitor; the at least one memory having stored therein instructions executable by the processor for: implementing on said display a graphical user interface that includes a session planner for displaying a session, the session comprising a list of exercises filtered to a particular patron for a particular session; the at least one memory further having stored therein a listing of binary strings, each of said binary strings representing an exercise within a predetermined system of physical training; the instructions executable by the processor further comprising executable instructions for: receiving data representing user selections of exercises; receiving a user input to save the session, whereupon the session is saved to the local data store to create a persistent record of the session; creating a session summary comprising an aggregate of binary strings for the exercises included in the session; displaying the session summary to at least one of the user and the patron; and storing said session summary in at least one of the at least one memory and the remote repository for later reporting and analysis. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, the user interface further comprising at least one of: an instructor dashboard; a patron dashboard; a calendar; a client list; and a ‘settings’ page. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, the patron list comprising a list of patrons and patron information for each patron in said list of patrons. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said patron information comprises, for each patron, at least one of: personal biographical information; demographics; and history. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, the executable code further comprising executable code for: aggregating said patron data with other patron data; and at least one of analyzing and reporting said patron data, ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The system of claim 5, wherein, prior to storage, said patron information is sanitized of personal identifying information. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, the session planner comprising: at least one interface control for displaying a listing of exercises; at least one filter, a filter comprising a user interface control that, upon activation by a user, filters a displayed list of exercises to display a subset of exercises, wherein activation of a predetermined sequence of filters generates a session. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said programmed physical training comprises at least one preplanned session of Pilates, said at least one preplanned session of Pilates comprising a sequence of Pilates exercises customized to the subject for a single encounter between instructor and patron. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the monitor comprises one of a wireless mobile device, a tablet computer, a laptop computer and a desktop computer. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said remote data store resides on a remote server, said server being communicatively coupled to said monitor via one or both of a wired and a wireless connection. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said aggregated data is provided to practitioners, health care providers and insurance carriers for study and analysis to determine efficacy of the programmed training. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said aggregated data is provided to employers to assess movement habits of employees. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said aggregated data is provided to lead-generation companies to generate leads for healthcare-related companies. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said user interface includes advertising targeted to patrons. ### Claim 15 A monitor for tracking and assessing subject response to programmed physical training, the monitor comprising: a display;

the instructions executable by the processor further comprising executable instructions for: receiving data representing user selections of individual exercises; receiving a user input to save the session, whereupon the session is saved to the local data store to create a persistent record of the session; creating a session summary comprising an aggregate of binary strings for the exercises included in the session; displaying the session summary to at least one of the user and the patron; and storing said session summary in at least one of the at least one memory and a remote repository for later reporting and analysis. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The monitor of claim 15, said GUI further comprising: a calendar; a client list; and a ‘settings’ page. ### Claim 17 (depends on 15) The monitor of claim 15, said session planner further comprising: at least one interface control for displaying a listing of exercises; at least one filter, a filter comprising a user interface control that, upon activation by a user, filters a displayed list of exercises to display a subset of exercises, wherein activation of a predetermined sequence of filters generates a session. ### Claim 18 (depends on 15) The monitor of claim 15, wherein said monitor is communicativel1 coupled to a remote server via one or both of a wired and a wireless connection, wherein said remote data store resides on the remote server. ### Claim 19 A computer-implemented method for tracking and assessing subject response to programmed physical training comprising: a computer storing a plurality of binary strings, each of said binary strings encoding parameters of an exercise within a predetermined system of physical training; the computer implementing on a display a graphical user interface that includes a session for displaying a session, the session comprising a list of exercises for filtered to a particular patron for a particular session; the computer receiving users selections of exercises; the computer receiving a user input to save the session, whereupon the session is saved to a local data store to create a persistent record of the session; the computer creating a session summary comprising an aggregate of binary strings for the exercises included in the session; the computer displaying the session summary to at least one of a user and a patron; and storing said session summary in at least one of a local data store and a remote data store. ### Claim 20 A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable instructions embodied thereon, which when executed by a processor perform a method for tracking and assessing subject response to programmed physical training comprising, the method comprising: storing a plurality of binary strings, each of the binary strings encoding parameters of an exercise within a predetermined system of physical training; implementing on a display a graphical user interface that includes a session planner for displaying a session, the session comprising a list of exercises filtered to a particular patron for a particular session;
