Exercise science is increasingly incorporating AI into research and practices to enhance the understanding of human movement, optimize exercise prescriptions, and improve overall health outcomes. Here are some areas where AI is being applied in exercise science:

In biomechanics and motion analysis, AI algorithms are employed to analyze complex biomechanical data, such as motion capture information, gait analysis, and joint kinetics. This helps in understanding movement patterns, identifying anomalies, and optimizing rehabilitation strategies [1].

Second, an AI-driven models analyze individual health data, including fitness levels, medical history, and goals, to generate personalized exercise prescriptions [2]. These prescriptions take into account a person’s unique characteristics, optimizing the effectiveness of exercise interventions.

Third, Wearable devices equipped with AI algorithms monitor and analyze physical activity, providing real-time feedback to users. These devices track metrics such as steps, heart rate, and sleep patterns, offering insights into overall health and facilitating behavior change [3].

Fourth, AI is used to develop predictive models for injury risk based on biomechanical and physiological data. These models can help identify individuals at higher risk of injuries, allowing for targeted interventions and preventive measures [4].

Fifth, AI is utilized to analyze large datasets generated from athletes’ training routines, performance metrics, and physiological responses. This aids in identifying patterns, optimizing training programs, and predicting peak performance periods [5,6].

Finally, AI-driven chatbots provide virtual health coaching and support, offering guidance on exercise routines, nutrition, and lifestyle choices. These virtual coaches contribute to ongoing support and motivation for individuals pursuing health and fitness goals [7].

The incorporation of AI into exercise science aligns with the broader trend of utilizing technology to personalize interventions, optimize outcomes, and make evidence-based decisions in health and fitness. As technology continues to advance, exercise scientists are likely to explore new applications of AI to further enhance their research and practices. Therefore, the role of kinesiologists in the era of artificial intelligence is very important. Kinesiologists will play a role in providing more accurate and effective exercise and movement management through fusion with artificial intelligence.
