Abstract
An exercise support device and an exercise support method are provided by which a judgment regarding the landing of the left and right feet of a user can be accurately made with low power consumption, so that the user can appropriately grasp and judge the balance of the use of the body in an exercise. First, based on changes in acceleration in a vertical direction with respect to the ground which has been acquired by a sensor section worn on the body during a running exercise, landing timing at which one of the left and right feet is landed is detected. Then, based on whether a difference between angular velocities around a traveling direction axis immediately after the latest landing timing and the preceding landing timing has a positive or negative value, whether the landed foot is the left foot or the right foot is judged.
