Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to help college students improve their physical health and build a sound health management system. The physical exercise and health management of college students following IoT (Internet of Things) are studied. First, the current situation of college students’ physical quality is analyzed, and it is found that the college students’ physical quality and mental states decline in recent years. Second, the connotation of health management is briefly introduced and its necessity is analyzed. Health management cannot only improve the physical condition of students but also cultivate students’ strong will. Then, the application and characteristics of IoT are described, and the framework of physical exercise is designed based on IoT. Finally, a questionnaire survey is designed, and the survey results are compared and analyzed. According to the statistical results of the intervention group and the control group before and after the intervention, it is found that physical exercise has a significant effect on improving the physical and mental states of college students. The average scores of each dimension of physical states after the intervention are higher than those before the intervention, and the scores of each symptom in mental illnesses are lower than those before the intervention. This shows that the main method of health management based on physical exercise has a very obvious positive effect, which helps college students to improve their physical and mental states and cultivate their good habit of taking exercise.
