Optionally, the baseline fitness/health profile of the participant maybe updated at periodic intervals. In some embodiments, the system and method are configured to alert when an update baseline is required. This ensures that the fitness / health program continue to meet the participant’s needs and goals.

From the inputted information a request for a fitness program is generated and received by a server computing device of the system for generating a fitness program. The fitness program generating engine receives and processes the request.

In one embodiment, the fitness program generating engine based on the criteria in the requests selects an appropriate fitness program template. In alternative embodiments, the fitness program generating engine generates an appropriate fitness program template from the plurality of fitness program templates stored in system memory.

Each fitness program template defines a period of time, appropriate periods of time include one week, one month, 3 months, 6 months or one year. The period of time is optionally based on the fitness goals of the participant and the length of time it generally takes to see a result based on that goal and in view of the current fitness level of the participant. For example, improvement in cardiovascular health as measured by reduction in resting heart rate, reduction in blood pressure and improved aerobic fitness as measured by VO2MAX may be visible with a sustained program of 6 to 8 weeks, improved muscular fitness including increased strength may be visible in 3 to 6 months.

Each template defining a period of time is broken into defined segments, for example each segment may be 1 week in length. Within each segment, subsegments are further defined, for example days. Individual subsegments are defined as an active subsegment where a specific workout or workout substitute is scheduled or a rest subsegment. Based on the criteria, the fitness program engine may further define an active subsegment based on workout type.

The fitness program engine based on the criteria will retrieve one or more workouts from one or more workout databases or request an appropriate workout from the workout generating engine and populate the selected template to generate a fitness program based on the participant’s criteria. The fitness program optionally includes group workouts, on-line workouts, workouts with a personal trainer and individual exercise.

In some embodiments, the fitness program engine includes a workout replacement module that allows a participant to substitute a scheduled workout with an alternative activity. In some embodiments, the workout replacement module compares the alternative activity with the scheduled activity and determine if the two are equivalent. If the two are not equivalent, the fitness program engine optionally modifies the subsequent workout schedule to compensate for the discrepancy.

The generated workout program is provided to the participant. Optionally, the method and system interact with a calendar or scheduling application that populate the participant’s calendar and provide alerts and prompts to complete a workout.

In some embodiments, the fitness program provided to the participant at the start of the fitness program is a fluid fitness program that is modified based on participant performance and/or satisfaction.

Optionally, the fitness program engine includes one/or more optimization algorithms that modifies the fitness program based on performance. In some embodiments, the fitness program engine will recommend one or more modifications to the fitness program be made. In some embodiments, modifications will be made automatically and optionally, updates to the participant’s calendar are sent.

Modifications include replacement of workout types, changes to specific workouts and replacement of workouts with rest days.

If the participant makes the modification to the workout, the system optionally sends a query to the participant with respect to the modification. For example, if the modification was an increase in weight used in a deadlift, the query relates to the perceived effort and optionally be a sliding scale.

In some embodiments, the fitness program engine is optionally configured to receive updates and modify the generated fitness program in response to the updates. In one embodiment, the system and method are configured to receive updates from fitness trackers which indicate that a particular workout has been completed or missed and update the fitness program accordingly. In some embodiments, updates to the fitness program include adding or subtracting segments or subsegments based on either tracked or inputted data.

In certain embodiments, the fitness program engine automatically substitutes a specific workout for another workout based on recent performance.

FIG. 2 shows a diagram for a computer implemented method for generating a workout. The method can be completed by the individual participating in the fitness / health program (“participant”), by a health care professional or a fitness professional or by initiated in response to a request for workout from the fitness program engine.

The method initiates with a step of receiving input via the interface regarding the participant that form one or more criteria that the workout must meet. Workout criteria include one or more workout type, workout length, required equipment amongst others. Workout type includes cardiovascular, strength training, mobility training, relaxation, stretching, weight-lifting, interval training, resistance training, high-intensity interval training, cross fit or combination.

Additional workout criteria include body part targeted including full body, core, legs, bum or “booty”, upper body, lower body, amongst others. Sports specific workouts may also be provided as a workout criteria. Sport specific workouts include exercises that are designed to enhance performance in a specific sport.

UPPER BODY Sculpt as used herein in reference to a particular workout refers to a 30 min upper body, group training, hypertrophy focused class. Upper body muscle groups targeted (that vary each day performed) that create a maximal localized sympathetic reaction in the muscle - using timed work and muscle failure as the primary constraints to achieving hypertrophy. A sequence of 4 movements (1 compound, 1 shortened state dominant and 1 lengthened state) are used in sequence to create targeted muscle failure for [DAY 1 -BACK & BICEPS, DAY 2 - CHEST & TRICEPS, DAY 3 - SHOULDERS + BICEPS + TRICEPS]

BOOTY builder as used herein in reference to a particular workout refers 30 min, group training, Glute/lower body hypertrophy focused class. Glute/Lower body muscle groups targeted (that vary each day performed) that create a maximal localized sympathetic reaction in the muscle - using timed work and muscle failure as the primary constraints to achieving hypertrophy. A sequence of 4 movements (1 compound, 1 shortened state dominant, 1 lengthened state & 1 Glute burnout) are used in sequence to create targeted muscle failure for [DAY 1 - MULTI-FLEXION GLUTE (ankle, knee & hip flexing to tax the Glute), DAY 2- HINGE DOMINANT GLUTE (taxing the glutes primarily through hinge patterns), DAY 3- HIP THRUST DOMINANT GLUTE (taxing the glutes through hip thrust alternatives).

MOBILITY as used herein in reference to a particular workout refers group training circuit prioritizing the exploration of complete joint capacity. A 45 min sequence where movements are put together targeting the testing, expanding exploration of new range of motion are sequenced to improve the health and capacity of joint articulation through all (primarily end range) range of motion. a.

In certain embodiments, the program is used as follows:

1. Stage 1 - Entry to the program: The first step in any clients's journey is to meet with one of the fitness professional to determine what is the most appropriate training schedule for the client - a. Should anyone have any injuries or potential hindrance to training, they will be prompted to book a 1/1 call with a specialist to customize their experience to accommodate any restrictions they may have. b. All those who are beginning their fitness journey for the first time OR for the first time in over 1 year, are recommended to start with the kickstart program i. The kickstart program is a 6-week program designed to teach the fundamental principles of training & get your nutrition in check. The program will get you off the couch and into a better mental and physical headspace. ii. Upon registration for the kickstart program, the client will meet with a specialist to set their schedule and receive their customized meal plan. The meal plan will be customized to the participant’s goals (fat loss, muscle gain or maintenance). c. In the event that the client has a greater capacity/experience in working out, they will be sent a form so we can determine what their starting schedule should be. The client will be asked questions to determine workout ability level. Based on our determination, they will be given a beginner, intermediate or advanced level schedule to begin. ge 1 Alternative - Automation - a. In the event the client is unable to come into a physical location or interested in being self-sufficient, they have the ability to complete the automated platform. The platform provides the client with a custom schedule based on their needs input into the questionnaire. b. After identifying the client, the platform must determine if the client has completed this process before or if it is appropriate to get a new Rx. This is in place in order to improve adherence. It is important to identify if the client should be changing their program or if it is a premature decision. The series of questions are designed to take into account how the client is currently feeling about their training routine. The platform’s purpose is to get the client to a physical and mental place where they are feeling accomplished. In the event there is a dissatisfaction or lack of adherence to the current program, they must be provided with a new one. This allows the client to take control of their choice in the journey, thus improving likelihood of sticking with the program. c. The following series is asked to identify the situation #4-12 as set forth below.

d. Once it has been determined if the client is eligible for receiving a new program, they are encouraged to proceed with the questionnaire.

f. Step 2 - Identify the client’s exercise ability level. The following questions are asked to determine the client’s proficiency level for resistance, HIIT & cardiovascular training. There are a total of 5 ability level options which classify each LF3 Client. There is also an element of frequency of training introduced to the client at this stage. We are trying to set proper expectations for the individuals embarking on their fitness journey with our team.

g. Step 3 - Receipt of their program. Once the client has their program, they are equipped with knowing exactly what classes they should attend in order to accomplish the goals they have listed. Note - This entire process is client driven. The client chooses the goals they want to achieve. The client self reflected on their own ability level. Furthermore the client selected the most appropriate program for THEM all on their own. The adherence to this is extremely high due to the client driven approach.

In certain embodiments, the platform tracks, monitors and make changes to the individual's training schedule. In specific embodiments, the platform provides over 40 health metrics that are useful data points for the client to monitor throughout their journey with the program. The specific measurables that the platform uses to make changes to the individual schedules are as follows:

1. Total Fat Mass - This is the metric that provides insight as to whether or not your body fat is dropping. If that is the client's goal, their program is working when this number trends down. 2. Skeletal Muscle mass - This is the metric that provides insight into Muscle. The most important variable in determining/improving the rate at which someone can burn fat. If the client's goal is to improve muscle or lose fat, this number should trend upwards to show success of the program.

3. Total body water - This number determines if the client is in an appropriate state to scan or not. If this number is not within 5lbs of the previous scan, the client must disregard the data points from the current scan and try to recreate a better state for their next one. Having an inflated or deflated body hydration will cause inflated or deflated muscle, in turn, also fat.

Once the client has starting point data, they can track to see if their program is making them progress towards their goals OR if they need to make an adjustment to their plan.

Many clients have body composition driven goals. This means they want to increase their muscle and decrease their fat. The combination of the two results in the change of an individual's shape. Strength can also be measured to a degree by evaluating muscle volume. In general, those with higher muscle mass have a greater strength capacity, to a certain point.

In certain embodiments, programs can be recalibrated manually with a fitness manager or automated through the platform. The platform can identify if the client is still making progress towards their goals or not. Simply - Should you change your workout schedule yes or no?

In certain embodiments, the platform takes 1. Hydration 2. Skeletal Muscle, 3. Fat Mass, into consideration when making this decision. The sequence to determine if the client gets a new training schedule or remains on the same is as follows, this is all based on the client GOALS:

1. Hydration - The platform compares the current hydration status to the most recent scan. IF the hydration status is above or below the previous by 5 lbs, it will list an error for the client. “This scan is not similar enough to your previous, please try again and recreate a more similar state” - It will recommend no coffee, no caffeine, no food and no workouts within 3hours of your scan, in order to get a more accurate reading. If the client is within the 5 point window, the scan will count and be calculated to determine if the current plan is working or a new one is required. 2. Skeletal Muscle - The platform will compare the skeletal muscle to the skeletal muscle of the previous scan result. When the client's goal is to INCREASE muscle of upper, lower or full body. It will determine if this is higher or lower than the most recent scan. If it is lower, it will recommend the client completes another program in order to maximize the amount of muscle the client can attain. If the muscle is higher than the most recent scan, it will recommend that the client remain on the current program as the program is functioning.

3. Fat Mass - The platform will compare the current scan total fat mass reading to the most recent scan results for fat mass. When the clients goals are to DECREASE fat of upper, lower or full-body, the platform can make the most appropriate recommendation for workout adjustments. If the current fat mass is lower than the previous scan and their goal is to decrease fat, the current plan is working. The platform will recommend they stick to this plan for another 4 weeks. If the current fat mass is higher than the previous reading, the platform will recommend seeking a new Rx to more appropriately target their goals.
