Claim:
1. A training supporting apparatus used to analyze an exercise form while a user is walking or running, the apparatus comprising: a sensor which is worn by a part of an arm of the user and measures acceleration components of the part of the arm of the user at least in three directions along X-, Y- and Z-axes, while the user is walking or running; and a processor which outputs an analysis result including a balance between arm swing and foot landing of the user analyzed based on information of the acceleration components measured by the sensor, wherein the processor detects a change in a balance between the acceleration component in the direction of the X-axis and the acceleration component in the direction of the Y-axis at a time of the foot landing, thereby analyzing a timing balance between the arm swing and the foot landing of the user.
