1. A method for generating a workout routine, comprising:
- receiving, at a server, personal information associated with an athlete from a portable fitness monitoring device;
receiving, at the server, performance information associated with the athlete from the portable fitness monitoring device;
generating, at the server, a workout routine at a first time based on the personal information and the performance information, wherein the workout routine includes a plurality of intervals;
generating, with the portable fitness monitoring device, new performance information as the athlete performs the workout routine;
displaying a target bar having a first portion and a second portion connected to the first portion, wherein the first portion graphically indicates the athlete'"'"'s current activity level and the second portion graphically indicates a goal activity level for the athlete during an interval of the workout;
modifying the target bar display by changing the position of the entire first portion relative to the second portion based on the new performance information to indicate that the athlete should modify their current activity level to meet the goal activity level, wherein changing the position of the entire first portion relative to the second portion comprises changing the position of the entire first portion without changing the position of the second portion;
receiving, at the server, new performance information associated with the athlete from the portable monitoring device;
modifying, at the server, the plurality of intervals at a second time based on the new performance information; and
sending, at the server, the modified workout routine to the portable fitness monitoring device,wherein each of the steps are executed using at least one processor.
