Diseño de una propuesta de evaluación de Aplicaciones de Entrenamiento Personalizado para Poblaciones Sedentarias.

Abstract

The lack of physical activity in the general population represents a significant health risk, despite the proven benefits of exercise. Factors such as lack of time, motivation, access to sports facilities, health issues, and social environment contribute to this problem. The intervention of exercise experts and the use of new technologies can help overcome these barriers and improve the health of the sedentary population. However, the supply of personalized training applications is scarce. This master's thesis aims to design a specific evaluation protocol for personalized training applications targeted at sedentary populations to ensure their quality and effectiveness. For this purpose, a review of the scientific literature was conducted, and the most commonly used evaluation tools were analyzed. Additionally, focus groups with experts in application development and physical training were conducted to identify relevant needs and criteria. The evaluation proposal includes general and specific actions, a questionnaire with concrete questions, and a scoring system. The designed protocol allows for the assessment of compliance with technical and economic criteria, providing a basis for the development of applications that improve user health. In conclusion, the development of personalized training applications can be an effective tool to enhance health and physical activity in sedentary populations. A robust evaluation protocol is essential to ensure their quality and market success.
