Abstract: A method for providing at least one of the following information to an athlete during a race such as a running or a cycling race: a race time prediction—a probability to achieve a target time at the end of the race; and/or an indication whether the pace followed by the athlete is too fast, adequate or too slow in order to achieve a target time, said method comprising measuring during said race a plurality of intermediate times with an inertial sensor and/or a positional sensor in a wearable device; causing a processing unit in said wearable device to retrieve, based on said intermediate time and on previous races of other athletes, a race profile as non-linear function of time over distance (t=f(d)); using the retrieved race profile for determining said information.

The method includes measuring during the race a plurality of intermediate times with an inertial sensor and/or a positional sensor in a wearable device; causing a processing unit in the wearable device to retrieve, based on the intermediate time and on previous races of other athletes, a race profile as non-linear function of time over distance (t=f(d)); and using the retrieved race profile for determining the information.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for automatically selecting exercises to propose to a user (7) carrying a mobile device (5) comprising a processor (23), wherein the user (7) also wears a motion sensor, for example an accelerometer (3) configured for communicating with the mobile device (5). The method comprises the following steps: classifying a predefined collection of exercises in a database; automatic selection by the mobile device (5) and/or by the accelerometer (3), wherein this selection takes into account at least one feedback from the user. The feedback indicates the sensations of the user (7) whilst performing an exercise.
