Abstract
The invention relates to a system and method for analysing an activity session. Data from a monitoring device worn by a user of the system for example is received over a period of time or distance and a classification system of the invention is utilised in real time or post session to determine the activities performed by the user during the session. The data collected relates to multiple parameters monitored during the activity session. The classification system defines an activity using a set of threshold criteria for a combination of parameters and therefore identifies a particular activity performed during the activity session when a combination of monitored parameters satisfies the threshold criteria for a particular activity. Determining the activities performed in this way allows for more useful interpretation of the data which in turn leads to more effective coaching advice and feedback for the user.

22. A system for analysing an activity session performed by a user to identify, using one or more processors, one or more types of activity performed by the user during the activity session, the system comprising a classification module arranged to receive activity data relating to multiple types of parameters monitored during the activity session and having:
-
at least one computer readable medium for storing one or more classifications for defining one or more activities, each activity being defined based on a combination of multiple types of parameters, and at least one processor arranged to process the received activity data against the classifications to and identify one or more activities performed during the activity session, wherein the multiple types of parameters defining an activity comprise any combination of two or more of;
resistance experienced or generated by the user, effort exerted by the user or health of the user during the one or more activities. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 30, 33, 39, 40, 41, 42, 45, 46, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53)

54. A method of performing computer-aided analysis of an activity session performed by a user of an activity monitoring device to identify, using one or more processors, one or more activities performed by the user during the activity session, the method comprising:
-
receiving activity data indicative of one or more activities performed during the activity session, said data relating to multiple types of parameters monitored during the activity session, and operating the one or more processors to process the activity data against a classification system stored in computer readable media to identify the one or more activities performed during the activity session, the classification system defining an activity based on a set of threshold criteria associated with a combination of multiple types of parameters, and wherein the multiple types of parameters comprise any combination of two or more of;
resistance experienced or generated by the user, effort exerted by the user or health of the user during the one or more activities.

55. A device for monitoring and analysing an activity session performed by a user of the device, the device comprising:
-
one or more sensing elements or receivers for obtaining activity data indicative of one or more activities performed by the user during the activity session, the activity data relating to multiple types of parameters associated with the one or more activities, and a classification system for identifying in real time the one or more activities performed by the user during the activity session and having; at least one computer readable medium for storing one or more classifications for defining one or more activities, each activity being defined based on a combination of parameter types, and at least one processor arranged to receive and process, in real time, the activity data obtained during the activity session against the one or more classifications and identify one or more activities performed during the activity session, wherein the combination of parameter types defining an activity comprise any combination of two or more of;
resistance experienced or generated by the user, effort exerted by the user or health of the user during the one or more activities
