Abstract

A performance information notification device according to an application example includes: an acquisition unit which acquires information indicating at least one of load exercise and rest in interval exercise; and a notification unit which reports performance information about at least one of a time during which the load exercise is carried out and a time during which the rest is carried out, based on the information indicating at least one of the load exercise and the rest.

Claims

1. A performance information notification device comprising:

an acquisition unit which acquires information about at least one of load exercise and rest in interval exercise; and

a notification unit which reports performance information about at least one of a time during which the load exercise is carried out and a time during which the rest is carried out, based on the information.

2. The performance information notification device according to claim 1, wherein

the performance information includes at least one of a cumulative value of the time during which the load exercise is carried out and a cumulative value of the time during which the rest is carried out.

3. The performance information notification device according to claim 1, wherein

the performance information includes at least one of a proportion of a cumulative value of the time during which the load exercise is carried out to a time during which the interval exercise is carried out, and a proportion of a cumulative value of the time during which the rest is carried out to the time during which the interval exercise is carried out.

4. The performance information notification device according to claim 1, wherein

the interval exercise includes at least one exercise cycle made up of one session of the load exercise and one session of the rest, and

the performance information includes at least one of a time during which the load exercise is carried out in the one exercise cycle and a time during which the rest is carried out in the one exercise cycle.

5. The performance information notification device according to claim 1, wherein

the interval exercise includes at least one exercise cycle made up of one session of the load exercise and one session of the rest, and

the performance information includes at least one of a proportion of a time during which the load exercise is carried out to a time during which the one exercise cycle is carried out, and a proportion of a time during which the rest is carried out to the time during which the one exercise cycle is carried out.

6. The performance information notification device according to claim 1, wherein

the acquisition unit includes a sensor which detects a movement of a person.

7. The performance information notification device according to claim 1, further comprising

a clocking unit which measures a time elapsed,

wherein the notification unit reports the performance information generated, based on the time elapsed and the information about at least one of the load exercise and the rest.

8. The performance information notification device according to claim 1, wherein

the acquisition unit

includes a communication unit which sends and receives information, and

acquires the information about at least one of the load exercise and the rest, via the communication unit.

9. A performance information notification method comprising:

acquiring information about at least one of load exercise and rest in interval exercise; and

reporting performance information about at least one of a time during which the load exercise is carried out and a time during which the rest is carried out, based on the information.

10. The performance information notification method according to claim 9, wherein

the performance information includes at least one of a cumulative value of the time during which the load exercise is carried out and a cumulative value of the time during which the rest is carried out.

11. The performance information notification method according to claim 9, wherein

the performance information includes at least one of a proportion of a cumulative value of the time during which the load exercise is carried out to a time during which the interval exercise is carried out, and a proportion of a cumulative value of the time during which the rest is carried out to the time during which the interval exercise is carried out.

12. The performance information notification method according to claim 9, wherein

the interval exercise includes at least one exercise cycle made up of one session of the load exercise and one session of the rest, and

the performance information includes at least one of a time during which the load exercise is carried out in the one exercise cycle and a time during which the rest is carried out in the one exercise cycle.

13. The performance information notification method according to claim 9, wherein

the interval exercise includes at least one exercise cycle made up of one session of the load exercise and one session of the rest, and

the performance information includes at least one of a proportion of a time during which the load exercise is carried out to a time during which the one exercise cycle is carried out, and a proportion of a time during which the rest is carried out to the time during which the one exercise cycle is carried out.

14. The performance information notification method according to claim 9, wherein

the acquiring includes acquiring information about a movement of a person detected by a sensor.

15. The performance information notification method according to claim 9, further comprising

measuring a time elapsed,

wherein the reporting includes reporting the performance information generated, based on the time elapsed and the information about at least one of the load exercise and the rest.

16. The performance information notification method according to claim 9, wherein

the acquiring includes

performing communication of information, and

acquiring the information about at least one of the load exercise and the rest, by the communication.

17. A performance information notification device which displays, on a display screen,

a proportion of load exercise which is a proportion of a cumulative value of a time during which load exercise is carried out to a time during which interval exercise is carried out, and

a proportion of rest which is a proportion of a cumulative value of a time during which rest is carried out to the time during which the interval exercise is carried out.

18. The performance information notification device according to claim 17, wherein

the proportion of load exercise and the proportion of rest are expressed by a graph.

19. A performance information notification device which displays, on a display screen,

a proportion of load exercise which is a proportion of a time during which load exercise is carried out to a time during which one exercise cycle made up of one session of the load exercise and one session of rest is carried out, and

a proportion of rest which is a proportion of a time during which the rest is carried out to the time during which the one exercise cycle is carried out.

20. The performance information notification device according to claim 19, wherein

the proportion of load exercise and the proportion of rest are expressed by a graph.

21. The performance information notification device according to claim 19, wherein

at least one of the time during which the load exercise is carried out and the time during which the rest is carried out is displayed on the display screen.
