Abstract

The idea for this app is a platform for people and especially athletes to know proper dieting, exercising, and how to recover from workout-related accidents [2]. I had to go online and search up everything I needed to know and sometimes I would get false information from the wrong websites. Athletes should be able to see what is good for them to eat, what kinds of workouts they should do everyday, as well as how to recover from certain injuries that they may sustain. When the user logs in to the app they will see options that say recovery exercise news and nutrition pages that contain all the information they will need.The nutrition page will display some common good foods to eat and their data such as calories, carbs, and more. The exercises page will list several important exercises vital to a good workout. Lastly, the injury page, also referred to as the recovery page, will show users a picture of the human body and allow them to select certain parts of the body to read up on relevant information pertaining to injuries around that area [3]. I also made 2 experiments to help me know and fix the app’s blindspot, the first one is a survey i give to my friends to try my app and fill it out, the second one is i follow the workouts and foods on my app for one day and compare to american’s daily nutrition and workout plans.
