Design And Research Of Youth Fitness Products Based On Flow Theory

With the improvement of the national consumption level,the market size of fitness products has been continuously expanding,and such products with a single design-oriented function can no longer meet the needs of consumers and the market.In order to improve the product experience of current fitness users and enhance the market competitiveness of fitness products,it has become a new design trend to develop products based on the emotional needs of users.Therefore,this study takes the flow theory as the theoretical basis and the basic needs and experience needs of fitness users as the starting point,integrates the specific contents of the functional levels of fitness products,puts forward a fitness product design model that is conducive to stimulating the flow experience of users,and provides a practical basis for the design of fitness products.The main contents of this research are as follows:(1)Based on the flow design model,the research is conducted from the user's perspective,and the research methods of literature analysis,questionnaire survey,and data analysis are adopted to extract the basic needs and flow experience needs of fitness users,and lays a foundation for the design of fitness products for young fitness users.(2)Based on the flow design model,the research is carried out from the product perspective.AHP is used to divide and rank the functional levels of fitness products.Combining the specific content of user needs and the design requirements of the flow experience for fitness products,a functional level framework of fitness products based on flow experience is constructed to clarify the specific design requirements of each function level of fitness products.(3)From the three perspectives of “person”,“tool” and “task” in the flow design model,the specific content of fitness product design is summarized,the flow design model suitable for fitness product design is constructed,and the product design process based on flow experience is sorted out.(4)The research results in the early stage of this paper have been applied to the design practice,so as to conduct an exploratory study on the fitness product design based on the flow theory,and completed the specific scheme design of the treadmill which is conducive to the flow experience.This research is based on the needs of young fitness users,the theoretical basis of the flow experience design methods and principles,and the goal of achieving the flow experience of fitness users.It constructs a flow design model and design process suitable for fitness products,which provides new ideas for the design and research of fitness products.
