Title: Android Based Fitness and Exercise
Rationale:
Studies show that a simple exercise such as walking on a regular basis can increase the performance of our brain, improve concentration, focus, and cognitive function.
The proponents chose to do the study for the reason that in doing so; hopefully, it will help the proponents to learn about hybrid development android programming using HTML, CSS, JS. This proposed study will also modernize the old or traditional way of teaching exercise and fitness routines (gym with gym instructor). With the advent of mobile phones, especially android phones, the users can follow the basic exercise and fitness routines recorded in the app with less or no supervisions at all from the gym instruction.
Development of the app (Features of the App)
The proposed app is an informative app with the following features:
- Pre-defined list of categories to select such as (full body exercise, core strength, lower body exercise and much more)
- Tips and Trivia on Fitness
- Follow along to workouts with audio instructions and progress cues.
- The app will work even if there is no internet connection.
Significance of the Study:
The proposed project will be beneficial to the following:
Gym Instructor: the outcome of this project can be used by the gym instructors as their additional learning materials for their clients.
Gym Clients/Other persons: this will provide convenience to the part of gym clients and other person who wants to learn fitness and exercise routines by just using their android phones.
Future Researchers: this will also provide additional knowledge to the future researchers who want to upgrade or renovate/improve the said project.
Development Tools:
Framework7 – is a free and open source mobile HTML framework to develop hybrid mobile apps or web apps with iOS & Android native look and feel. It is also an indispensable prototyping apps tool to show working app prototype as soon as possible in case you need to.
Phonegap –this application will allow you to build your HTML, CSS and JS into apk.
