Athletic performance sensing and/or tracking systems and methods
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- providing, at a processor associated with a user device, access to first content to a first user as the first user is performing an activity;
receiving, at the processor, first athletic performance data from a sensor measuring athletic performance of the first user as the first user is performing the activity;
using the processor, determining that a performance parameter of the first user in performing the activity is less than a performance parameter corresponding to previous performances of the activity by the first user;
based on determining that the performance parameter of the first user in performing the activity is less than the performance parameter corresponding to previous performances of the activity by the first user and using the processor, altering a playback characteristic of the first content to increase the performance parameter of the first user in performing the activity;
storing the playback characteristic of the first content and the performance parameter specific to the playback characteristic of the first content; and
responsive to receiving a user display request, generating a display of the stored performance parameter specific to the playback characteristic of the first content.

Abstract
Athletic performance sensing and/or tracking systems include components for measuring or sensing athletic performance data and/or for storing and/or displaying desired information associated with the athletic performance to the user (or others). Such systems can allow users a wide variety of options in creating workouts, selecting and presenting media content during the athletic performance, etc., e.g., to help keep users entertained and motivated. In some instances, user feedback may be used, optionally in combination with objective data relating to a workout, to control features of the workout routine, to control the music or other media content selected and/or presented, and/or to control features of future workout routines and/or the presented media content.

10. A method comprising:
-
providing, at a processor associated with a user device, playback of a first song to a first user as the first user is performing an activity; receiving, at the processor, first athletic performance data from a sensor measuring athletic performance of the first user as the first user is performing the activity; providing, at the processor, playback of a second song to the first user as the first user is continuing to perform the activity; receiving, at the processor, second athletic performance data of the first user as the first user is continuing to perform the activity; using the processor, analyzing the first athletic performance data and the second athletic performance data to determine that a performance parameter of the activity by the first user has decreased between the playback of the first song and the second song; and based on determining that the performance parameter of the activity by the first user has decreased and using the processor, altering a first playback characteristic of the second song to match a second playback characteristic of the first song; storing the second playback characteristic of the first song and the performance parameter specific to the playback characteristic of the first song; and responsive to receiving a user display request, generating a display of the stored performance parameter specific to the second playback characteristic of the first song. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. An apparatus comprising:
-
a processor; a display; and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer readable instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to at least perform; provide playback of first content to a first user as the first user is performing an activity; receive first athletic performance data from a sensor measuring athletic performance of the first user as the first user is performing the activity; determine that a performance parameter of the first user in performing the activity is less than a performance parameter corresponding to previous performances of the activity by the first user; based on determining that the performance parameter of the first user in performing the activity is less than the performance parameter corresponding to previous performances of the activity by the first user, alter a playback characteristic of the first content to increase the performance parameter of the activity by the first user; store the playback characteristic of the first content and the performance parameter specific to the playback characteristic of the first content; and responsive to receiving a user display request, generating a display of the stored performance parameter specific to the playback characteristic of the first content. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
