Choose some exercises using a software package.Maybe draw some stick people for them – maybe not. Show the patient what to do in the clinic.The evolution of exercise prescription has gone something like this: While physios clearly have an interest in peoples cardiovascular and general fitness it is in the area of musculoskeletal and orthopedic compliance that mobile phone apps are really of useful. But increasingly smartphones are being used to record the workout, provide prompts and share your experience and victories with friends and followers. Initially smartphones made this easier just by being switched on and close to hand. Nicely formatted graphs or just tables can be a great motivator, but having to boot up a desktop to enter results of a run or a workout was just too much effort for most people. Before smartphones became widespread this was usually reserved for the very dedicated or the very nerdy.
Software designed to motivate people to do their exercises has been around for a long time.
