Abstract : Real-time exercise analysis can be successfully supported by MediaPipe BlazePose, spatiotemporal models, and machine-learning-driven form classification, according to recent research on pose-estimation-based fitness systems. Existing research shows that lightweight models have potential for posture correction and repetition counting, but it also highlights issues with accuracy, generalization, and user-specific adaptability. In this paper, we offer a MediaPipe-based workout monitoring system that employs the BlazePose model to calculate joint angles, extract 33 body landmarks, and assess exercise form using machine-learning classification and heuristic thresholds. Through an interactive interface, the suggested system offers real-time rep counting, posture feedback, and calorie prediction. With this method, customers can work out precisely and safely without the need for a personal trainer.

Keywords : KNN, OpenCV, MediaPipoe, Blazepose.
