An exercise monitoring apparatus capable of allowing a user to conveniently check a progressed exercise state and capable of properly controlling an exercise amount, by comparing a progressed exercise amount measured based on scheduling information received from an external apparatus and acceleration information of the exercise monitoring apparatus, with a goal exercise amount, and by visually providing a comparison result, a system and an exercise monitoring method thereof. The exercise monitoring apparatus comprises a communication unit configured to receive exercise scheduling information from an external apparatus, a sensing unit configured to detect acceleration information of the exercise monitoring apparatus, a controller configured to measure a progressed exercise amount based on the acceleration information, to acquire a goal exercise amount from the exercise scheduling information, to compare the progressed exercise amount with the goal exercise amount, and to generate a notification message indicating a result of the comparison, and an output unit configured to output the notification message.

Exercise monitoring apparatus, system and controlling method thereof

Disclosed is An exercise guide apparatus comprising: a sensing unit configured to obtain a heart rate of a subject; a strength determining unit configured to determine a maximal oxygen uptake of the subject; an exercise intensity measurement unit configured to determine a current exercise intensity of the subject based on the heart rate obtained by the sensing unit; and an exercise guide unit configured to estimate a fat oxidation rate of the subject, determine whether or not fat oxidation of the subject occurs, generate guide information according to a result of the determination of the occurrence of fat oxidation, and display the guide information generated, wherein the fat oxidation rate is estimated based on a ratio of fat being oxidized at the current exercise intensity to the maximal oxygen uptake, and wherein the occurrence of fat oxidation is determined by checking whether or not the fat oxidation rate estimated is greater than a threshold.
