System for optimal physical exercise and training
First Claim
1. A fitness system, comprising:
- a plurality of sensors which collect data related to at least one of a user'"'"'s pulse rate, breathing rate, breathing capacity, blood chemistry, breath chemistry, exercise activity rate, and number of contractions of one or more monitored muscles of said user;
a wearable device comprising a processor operating under software control, said processor comprising at least one differential amplifier, at least one converter, and a multiplexer,said processor in communication with said sensors and configured for receiving said data in real time from said plurality of sensors, processing said data into processed data, and sending said processed data to a host device,said processing said data by said processor comprising;
receiving by the at least one differential amplifier at least some of said data and generating respective sensor signals and an RMS value associated with each of said sensor signals;
converting by said at least one converter said RMS values to DC values;
sampling by said multiplexer said DC values to produce a multiplexed digital signal representing the sampled values; and
generating feedback information according to manually inputted or pre-programmed parameters in the host device and based on said multiplexed digital signals, wherein said feedback information represents real-time performance parameters, the difference between actual and optimal parameter values, and/or the direction or degree to which the exercise movement should be adjusted;
a host device in communication with said processor and configured for receiving said feedback information; and
a display device in communication with said host device and configured for displaying said feedback information.

Abstract
A fitness system for enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of physical training and/or exercise by a user comprises uses (1) a plurality of sensors that are worn by an exercising user and which generate data concerning monitored body processes pertaining to the exercise'"'"'s effects on the user'"'"'s body, (2) a processor operates under software control for processing, storing, and analyzing the data, and sending the processed data to a host device using a wireless communication protocol to communicate desired adjustments to the exercise in real time. The host device can be a smartphone, tablet computer or other web accessible device that can display and communicate bilaterally with the processor.
