Claim 0:
1. A method for controlling at least one variation of workout parameters of a user on an exercise machine for strength workout, in a cycle of workout progression steps comprising a plurality of workout progression steps in a set order, each workout progression step comprising a respective workout parameter, the method comprising operating steps of:
s1) checking, by a data processing module of a remote electronic calculator operatively connected to the exercise machine, following authentication of the user on the exercise machine, that a trigger condition of the cycle of workout progression steps is met by comparing first pieces of time information of strength workout previously performed by the user with respective reference values and/or second pieces of information representative of strength workout statuses previously achieved by the user with respective reference values, said reference values being associated with the trigger condition of a cycle of workout progression steps;
if the trigger condition of a cycle of workout progression steps is met,
s2) acquiring, by the data processing module of the remote electronic calculator, from a memory module of the remote electronic calculator, a last workout progression step of the cycle of workout progression steps performed by the user prior to authentication on the exercise machine;
s3) identifying, by the data processing module of the remote electronic calculator, as workout progression step to be performed, a successive workout progression step, in the set order provided by the cycle of workout progression steps, with respect to the last workout progression step of the cycle of workout progression steps performed by the user prior to authentication on the exercise machine and stored in the memory module of the remote electronic calculator;
s4) setting, by the data processing module of the remote electronic calculator, the workout parameters associated with the workout progression step to be performed, the workout progression step to be performed having associated a variation of at least one workout parameter of the user on the exercise machine for updating a previously set value of said at least one workout parameter of the user on the exercise machine;
s5) updating, by the data processing module of the remote electronic calculator, the previously set value of said at least one workout parameter of the user on the exercise machine according to the variation of said at least one workout parameter of the user on the exercise machine provided by the workout progression step to be performed; and
s6) sending, to a data processing unit of the exercise machine, by the data processing module of the remote electronic calculator, the workout parameters of the user on the exercise machine, comprising the updated value of the at least one workout parameter of the user on the exercise machine.
