After a simple registration process, users can log in and make

selections on the Search by Category page in each of the following: condition, exercise type, body part, equipment, exercise difficulty, age and, image orientation (left or right).

and Vietnamese. There is also the facility for users to give feedback by rating on a scale of 5 (strongly agree) to 1 (strongly disagree) on topics such as whether exercises are useful, whether the text is adequate, and whether it is easy to search the website.

The sub-categories under Exercise type are a mixed bunch with a combination of techniques such as Strength training, plus actions such as Reaching for objects and Walking. This section could be improved by re-organizing the exercises into a category titled Task-specific exercise with sub-categories Reaching for objects, Walking and so on.
