Introduction
- Today, as the society develops, the workload that people have to carry is increasing and the end result is that workers between the age of 20 and 50 tend to be lazy. So, by keeping in mind the situation, many application developers and researchers in the medical field have sought to improve the exercise habits of busy and regular people. Using a smartphone, this document review will present some methods to help change the user's exercise habits through smartphones, in this document overview there will be 3 sections representing 3 other methods. Each research purpose is different, and through this document review I will also express my own objective views in this research work. Online Gym Nowadays, going to the gym and exercising under the help of a personal trainer is very common, but home exercise is not very popular due to certain technical limitations. To enhance the fitness of busy people, we introduce the architecture, development and pilot testing of a multi-user online gym based on Kinect motion capture and OpenSimulator, which aims to allow socialization and monitoring of workouts without commuting. Prototypes were tested concurrently with 4 people in different locations, providing data on the feasibility of the approach and providing information for further development and research. Kurt Debattista (2014) 2014 6th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES), Valletta, Malta 9 - 12 Sept. 2014 Online Yoga Yoga is becoming very popular not only in the East but also in the West. The results of the 2002 NHIS survey suggest that 5.1% of the U.S. population (over 10 million) practice yoga.[1] Published literature suggests that majority of people take to yoga for health reasons and overall wellbeing. Various degrees of efficacy of yoga in medical condition have been discussed in a number of published review articles. Yoga for cancer,[2] diabetes,[3] asthma,[4] and anxiety[5] are few examples. Although some studies have focused on healthy adults,[6,7] older adults,[8] and school children. The motivation to practice yoga is different for everyone and is likely to change over time with continued practice. For example, Park et al.[ 9 ] reported that the motivations for yoga changed (with time and practice) from fitness and stress relief to spirituality. In addition, the commercialization of yoga in North America may be altering the perception of yoga as a spiritual practice. Modern-day society has increased the demands of a global market for yoga, reflecting a heightened desire for beauty, flexibility, and fitness as well as health goals of stress reduction.[ 9 , 10 ]

Schjerve, Inga E., et al. (2008). "Both aerobic endurance and strength training programmes improve cardiovascular health in obese adults." Clinical Science 115 (9): 283-293. Regular exercise training is recognized as a powerful tool to improve work capacity, endothelial function and the cardiovascular risk profile in obesity, but it is unknown which of high-intensity aerobic exercise, moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or strength training is the optimal mode of exercise. In the present study, a total of 40 subjects were randomized to high-intensity interval aerobic training, continuous moderate-intensity aerobic training or maximal strength training programmes for 12 weeks, three times/week. The high-intensity group performed aerobic interval walking/running at 85–95% of maximal heart rate, whereas the moderate-intensity group exercised continuously at 60–70% of maximal heart rate; protocols were isocaloric. The strength training group performed ‘high-intensity’ leg press, abdominal and back strength training. Maximal oxygen uptake and endothelial function improved in all groups; the greatest improvement was observed after high-intensity training, and an equal improvement was observed after moderate-intensity aerobic training and strength training. High-intensity aerobic training and strength training were associated with increased PGC-1α (peroxisome-proliferator- activated receptor γ co-activator 1α) levels and improved Ca2+ transport in the skeletal muscle, whereas only strength training improved antioxidant status. Both strength training and moderate-intensity aerobic training decreased oxidized LDL (low-density lipoprotein) levels. Only aerobic training decreased body weight and diastolic blood pressure. In conclusion, high- intensity aerobic interval training was better than moderate-intensity aerobic training in improving aerobic work capacity and endothelial function. An important contribution towards improved aerobic work capacity, endothelial function and cardiovascular health originates from strength training, which may serve as a substitute when whole-body aerobic exercise is contra- indicated or difficult to perform.
