Systems and methods for interactive exercise therapy

Abstract

Safe and effective exercise poses a specific set of challenges for subjects diagnosed with diabetes. These challenges include the coordination of exercise with blood glucose monitoring and insulin administration. Failure to coordinate these factors effectively can lead to various pathologies related to aberrant blood glucose levels. Presented herein are methods, systems, algorithms, computer program products, web portals, real-time live instruction, and computer-executable code for exercise guidance and instruction specific to diabetes relief and management. The systems as disclosed herein can help ameliorate, slow, or reduce a likelihood of developing a diabetic condition.

         18 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the user is diabetic. 
     
     
         19 . A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable code encoded therein, the computer-executable code adapted to be executed to implement a method of advertising to a user, the method comprising:
 a) processing an advertisement system, wherein the advertisement system comprises:
 i) an instructional exercise communication module; 
 ii) an advertisement communication module; and 
 iii) an output module; 
   b) generating by the instructional exercise communication module an instructional exercise communication based on a reading of a biometric measurement detected in the user by a biometric device;   c) generating by the advertisement communication module an advertisement based on the reading of the biometric measurement detected in the user;   d) communicating by the output module the instructional exercise communication to an output media device; and   e) communicating by the output module the advertisement to the output media device.   
     
     
         20 . The computer program product of  claim 19 , wherein the advertisement system further comprises a biometric data receiving module, and the method further comprises receiving by the biometric data receiving module the reading of the biometric measurement in the user. 
     
     
         21 . The computer program product of  claim 19 , wherein the advertisement system further comprises a biometric detecting module, and the method further comprises detecting by the biometric detecting module the biometric measurement in the user. 
     
     
         22 . The computer program product of  claim 19 , wherein the communicating of the advertisement to the output media device is contemporaneous with the communicating of the instructional exercise electronic communication to the output media device. 
     
     
         23 - 107 . (canceled) 
     
     
         108 . The computer program product of  claim 21 , wherein the detecting of the biometric measurement in the user is during a state of physical exercise. 
     
     
         109 . The computer program product of  claim 19 , wherein the method further comprises communicating, contemporaneously with communicating the instructional exercise electronic communication, by the output media device to the user an indication of a change in the biometric measurement detected in the user in real-time by the biometric device. 
     
     
         110 . The computer program product of  claim 19 , wherein the biometric device is a glucose monitoring device and the biometric measurement detected in the user is a blood glucose level. 
     
     
         111 . The computer program product of  claim 19 , wherein the biometric device is a heart rate monitoring device and the biometric measurement detected in the user is a heart rate.
