Abstract
An approach is provided for tracking and analyzing physical activities. Inputs are received from a plurality of users. The inputs specify one or more physical activities. The inputs are analyzed to quantitatively compare the activities among the users. A score is assigned to each user based on the analysis. The scores can be presented to the users over a communication network.

31. A method comprising:
-
accessing a fitness analysis system for recording a user'"'"'s activity; receiving numerical points responsive to an amount of effort exerted by the user in a particular activity; assigning additional points based on dietary behavior and lifestyle; grouping selected users into teams; totaling the number of points earned by all of the users on each individual team during a predetermined period of time; and comparing the total number of points earned by each team during the predetermined period of time to determine a winning team. - View Dependent Claims (32)

39. A fitness analysis system comprising:
-
a subsystem for entering and tracking vital and activity statistics across a plurality of activities and statistical parameters; a subsystem for accepting the vital and activity statistics and quantifying a user'"'"'s exerted effort in each activity on a normalized scale based on the vital and activity statistics; a subsystem for accepting the normalized quantities of the user'"'"'s exerted effort in each activity and for allowing the user to access activity records; a subsystem for tracking one or more activity goals of the user and for determining whether the one or more activity goals was successfully achieved; and a subsystem for providing real-time analysis to the user across the plurality of activities, such that the analysis is sent to the entering and tracking subsystem for transmission to the user. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46)
