CHAPTER 1: PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND OUTLINE
1.1 Introduction
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the health and fitness domain has transformed
how individuals approach exercise and personal well-being. One such advancement is the use of
AI-powered virtual trainers that offer personalized fitness guidance without the need for human
supervision. These systems help users maintain proper posture, perform exercises accurately, and
reduce the risk of injuries during workouts.
AI Gym Traineris a vision-based, real-time fitness coaching system that utilizes pose
estimation and deep learning techniques to guide users through workout routines. By leveraging
a webcam and intelligent algorithms, the system detects body posture, evaluates exercise form,
and delivers corrective feedback instantly. This ensures an engaging and safe workout experience
for users across different fitness levels.
Built using Python, TensorFlow, and OpenCV, the project demonstrates the practical application
of machine learning and computer vision in solving real-world problems related to personal
fitness, rehabilitation, and home workouts.
1.2 Motivation for the Work
The idea behind developing the AI Gym Trainer originated from the common difficulties faced
during unsupervised workouts. Many individuals, especially beginners or those exercising at
home, struggle with maintaining the correct form. Improper technique can not only hinder results
but also cause serious injuries. Traditional fitness guidance methods such as online videos or
generic mobile apps do not offer real-time feedback or corrections.
The COVID-19 pandemic further emphasized the need for remote, contactless, and interactive
solutions in the fitness industry. With gyms closing and people shifting to home workouts, a
9
scalable and intelligent virtual trainer became a necessity. This project aims to fill that gap,
making professional-level workout guidance accessible, affordable, and engaging through AI.
1.3 Problem Statement
Traditional fitness coaching either requires the presence of a human trainer or depends on static
resources such as pre-recorded videos and written instructions. These approaches lack the ability
to respond dynamically to a user's movements, making it difficult to ensure that exercises are
being performed correctly.
Without proper supervision, users are prone to adopting poor exercise techniques, which may
result in muscle strain, injuries, or ineffective training outcomes. Additionally, real-time posture
correction is nearly impossible through standard fitness apps, and hiring a personal trainer may
not always be a feasible or cost-effective solution.
The absence of intelligent, interactive feedback systems creates a need for a robust AI-powered
solution that can monitor user posture, classify workout routines, and offer timely guidance.AI
Gym Traineris designed to address these shortcomings by providing real-time posture analysis
and personalized exercise feedback using computer vision.

CHAPTER 2: RELATED WORK INVESTIGATION
2.1 Introduction
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and computer vision, numerous systems
have been introduced to enhance human activity recognition and fitness tracking. The integration
of pose estimation and machine learning into fitness applications has enabled intelligent,
real-time monitoring of physical movements. This chapter reviews relevant work and
technologies in the domain of AI-based fitness systems, with a focus on methodologies, pose
estimation models, exercise classification approaches, and feedback mechanisms.
2.2 Overview of AI in Fitness Applications
AI-driven fitness solutions are designed to offer personalized coaching experiences, providing
feedback on exercise form, performance metrics, and training recommendations. These systems
typically utilize pose estimation techniques, gesture recognition, and motion tracking to detect
and evaluate user activity.
Applications such asFreeletics,Fitify, andTempoprovide guided workouts but rely heavily on
pre-recorded video analysis and limited interactivity. Other systems likePeloton Guideand
Mirrorintegrate real-time feedback using camerasand sensors, but they are costly and lack
portability.
Recent research in this area focuses on improving motion recognition accuracy, real-time
response, and scalability. Projects combining OpenPose, PoseNet, or BlazePose with deep
learning models demonstrate significant promise in evaluating human poses and detecting
exercise types with high precision.
2.3 Pose Estimation Techniques
14
Pose estimation plays a critical role in understanding human body movements. It involves
detecting key joint locations (e.g., shoulders, knees, elbows) from images or video frames. The
most widely used models include:
● OpenPose: A multi-person, real-time system for detecting2D pose keypoints, known for
its accuracy and extensibility.
● PoseNet: A lightweight neural network model that estimateshuman poses using a
webcam, suitable for browser and mobile-based applications.
● BlazePose: Developed by Google, this model offershigh-speed, full-body pose tracking
optimized for real-time applications, ideal for fitness and sports analytics.
Among these, BlazePose has been selected for this project due to its balance between speed and
accuracy, making it ideal for real-time posture detection in exercises.
2.4 Existing Systems and Approaches
Several academic and commercial systems have attempted to create fitness platforms using AI:
● Wang et al. (2020)developed a deep learning frameworkusing LSTM networks to
classify time-series exercise data based on joint angles.
● Ahmed et al. (2019)created a mobile application thatused PoseNet for yoga pose
correction, focusing on angle-based form detection.
● Google’s AI-powered yoga instructor demois a web-based tool that uses MediaPipe
and TensorFlow.js to provide feedback on yoga postures.
15
These systems, while innovative, often focus on specific exercises, lack generalization across
multiple fitness forms, or depend on strong internet connectivity. This highlights a research gap
in building offline-capable, multi-exercise, real-time feedback systems.

From the literature and system comparison, key gaps observed are:
● Lack ofmulti-exerciserecognition in a single platform
● Limitedreal-time corrective feedbackmechanisms
● Inability to functionofflineor on resource-limiteddevices
16
● Absence ofscalabilityfor large user bases or extended training sessions
These gaps provide the foundation for designing the AI Gym Trainer system, which aims to offer
a robust, real-time, and scalable AI solution for posture correction and workout assistance.

The system runs locally on a standard laptop/PC equipped with an HD webcam.
26
5.3 Core Implementation Details
Pose Estimation
The BlazePose model from MediaPipe is used to detect 33 keypoints on the user’s body. These
points are tracked frame-by-frame using the system webcam, providing joint coordinates (x, y, z)
in real time.
Angle Calculation
Joint angles (e.g., knee angle, elbow angle, back angle) are computed using trigonometric
formulas. These angles are compared with ideal angle ranges for each exercise to determine
correctness.
Exercise Classification
Simple rule-based classification is used for exercises like squats, lunges, and push-ups. Pose
patterns and sequences of joint movements help differentiate between exercise types.
Example: A squat is detected by identifying a bending of knees and hip joints with vertical
lowering of the torso while keeping the back straight.
Feedback Mechanism
Based on the calculated angles:
● If posture is within acceptable range → Display "Good Form"
● If form deviates beyond threshold → Display specific message (e.g., "Keep your back
straight", "Lower deeper")
27
5.4 User Interface and Workflow
The system interface built using Streamlit includes:
● Live camera feedwith pose overlay (landmark connectionsfor joints)
● Textual feedbackpanel that updates in real time
● Start/Stop controlsfor managing sessions
● Visual indicators(color change or emoji) for formvalidation
The UI is responsive and designed to be usable by individuals of all fitness levels.
5.5 Testing and Debugging
The system was tested using various exercises performed under different conditions:
● Lighting Variations: Tested under natural light, artificialindoor light, and low-light
conditions.
● User Variability: Multiple users with different bodytypes, heights, and movement
speeds.
● Camera Angles: Frontal and side views were used todetermine optimal detection setup.
Common bugs included:
● Missed landmark detection in poor lighting
28
● False positives during transitional movements (e.g., standing up from a squat)
These were mitigated through smoothing filters, confidence score thresholds, and posture
duration analysis.
5.6 Performance Evaluation
Metric Result
Pose Detection Accuracy ~94% in controlled light
Average Feedback ~0.8 seconds
Latency
Exercise Classification ~90% (for squats, push-ups,
Accuracy lunges)
Supported Frame Rate 20–25 FPS (on mid-range
