BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONIn considering what a person would do to monitor their health and the necessary devices they would use to monitor and track their progress, it is difficult to maintain records across several devices used. These devices may include a bathroom scale, pedometer, calorie meter, pulse monitor, or other exercise devices to monitor weight and or body mass index (water hydration levels, bone and muscle mass, body fat percentage, etc.). Individuals may like to keep track of their progress after each exercise, blood pressure reading, weight reading and food intake. Even when health data is recorded on these devices individually, it is usually not displayed or interpreted in as useful a manner as it could be.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONA Health Tracking Program of the invention is software that can read data off of a variety of exercise devices. Once the device is connected to a computer, mobile or stand alone device, the software automatically recognizes the device and user. Once a device or a plurality of these devices collectively or individually syncs, data is imported and/or exported. The data is stored on both the exercise device and host device. Information stored includes blood pressure, weight, caloric intake, caloric expenditure, body mass index and activities performed. The software extracts the data and displays useful information about the user's progress, both current and historical. Selected user data can be uploaded to the internet for physicians and social networking.
A Health Tracking Program of the invention can be executed manually or automatically when a user connects 1 an exercise device 7 to a host device 2 as seen in
