description The European Association of Preventive Cardiology Exercise Prescription in Everyday Practice and Rehabilitative Training (EXPERT) tool has been developed for digital training and decision support in cardiovascular disease patients in clinical practice. Exercise prescription recommendation systems for sub-healthy people are essential to enhance this dominant group’s physical ability as well. This study aims to construct a guided exercise prescription system for sub-healthy groups using exercise community data to train an AI model. The system consists of six modules, including three-month suggested exercise mode (3m-SEM), predicted value of rest heart rate (rest HR) difference after following three-month suggested exercise mode (3m-PV), two-month suggested exercise mode (2m-SEM), predicted value of rest HR difference after following two-month suggested exercise mode (2m-PV), one-month suggested exercise mode (1m-SEM) and predicted value of rest HR difference after following one-month suggested exercise mode (1m-PV). A new user inputs gender, height, weight, age, and current rest HR value, and the above six modules will provide the user with a prescription. A four-layer neural network model is applied to construct the above six modules. The AI-enabled model produced 95.80%, 100.00%, and 95.00% testing accuracy in 1m-SEM, 2m-SEM, and 3m-SEM, respectively. It reached 3.15, 2.89, and 2.75 BPM testing mean absolute error in 1m-PV, 2m-PV, and 3m-PV. The developed system provides quantitative exercise prescriptions to guide the sub-healthy group to engage in effective exercise programs.
