Performance monitoring systems and methods
Systems and methods for electronically creating and modifying a fitness plan are disclosed. The method may include receiving an input of a workout parameter, generating workout plan data based on the workout parameter, displaying the workout plan data to suggest a workout activity, collecting performance data, and generating second workout plan data.
1. A method of electronically creating and modifying a fitness plan, the method comprising:
receiving electronic goal data related to a goal for a fitness activity;
generating first workout parameters based on the received electronic goal data;
displaying the first workout parameters on a display screen of a portable electronic device, the portable electronic device including a microprocessor, a user input, a satellite positioning system receiver, an accelerometer, and a wireless communication transceiver;
collecting first electronic performance data related to a first fitness activity workout on the portable electronic device, the first fitness activity workout being based on the first workout parameters;
generating second workout parameters based on the first workout parameters and the first electronic performance data; and
displaying the second workout parameters on the display screen.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising collecting second electronic performance data related to a second fitness activity workout on the portable electronic device, the second fitness activity workout being based on the second workout parameters.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first electronic performance data includes position data determined via the satellite positioning system receiver.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the first electronic performance data includes speed, pace, distance, heart rate, cadence, stride length, or energy consumed.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
identifying invalid data in the first electronic performance data; and
replacing the invalid data with replacement data.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first workout parameters include one of heart rate, distance, time, elevation gain, speed, and pace.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second workout parameters include one of target speed, target pace, target distance, target heart rate, target cadence, target stride length, or target energy consumed.
8. A method of electronically creating and modifying a fitness plan, the method comprising:
receiving an input of a workout parameter on a user interface of a portable electronic device, the portable electronic device including a microprocessor, a display screen, a satellite positioning system receiver, an accelerometer, and a wireless communication transceiver, the workout parameter being one of a desired distance, a desired time, a desired heart rate, a desired speed, a desired pace, and a desired elevation gain;
generating first electronic workout plan data based on the workout parameter;
displaying the first electronic workout plan data on the display screen or a remote display screen to suggest a first workout activity;
collecting first electronic performance data related to the first workout activity on the portable electronic device;
generating second electronic workout plan data based on the first electronic workout plan data and the first electronic performance data;
displaying the second electronic workout plan data on the display screen or the remote display screen to suggest a second workout activity; and
collecting second electronic performance data related to the second workout activity on the portable electronic device.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the first electronic workout plan data includes an athletic training route.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the first electronic workout plan data includes route guidance information.
11. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
identifying invalid data in the electronic user data; and
replacing the invalid data with replacement data.
