Exercise has many benefits, such as increasing energy, reducing the risk of health
problems, and releasing endorphins. Fitness gyms are one of the best places to exercise,
with a wide selection of equipment and well-educated staff. To provide a good quality of
service, fitness gyms should have an organized management system that keeps records of
members, employees, inventory, and bills. This system will help guide customers in
doing proper exercise and improve the productivity of business owners.
In this project, the proponents designed and developed the Strong Tower
Management System that solved the problems in the manual process that the gymnasium
has. The proposed system provides a more efficient way of managing service, inventory,
workouts, and membership plans. The proponents used Rapid Application Development
as the basis for the development of the Strong Tower Management System.
Strong Tower Management System with Health Monitoring Progress v

The Strong Tower Management System with Health Monitoring Progress is a
web-based system that uses many different application programming interfaces. The
system was developed using Hypertext Mark-up Language, Cascading Style Sheets,
JavaScript, and PHP as well as MySQL for the database. The implementation entails the
use of a variety of resources, including hardware, software, and people. A web server is
also needed to host the system and allow end users to access it.
The usability of the system was measured using SUMI which focused on
efficiency, affect, helpfulness, control, and learnability was administered to test the
system’s usability. Based on the result of usability testing, the system was able to meet
the expectation and requirements of the owner of Strong Tower Fitness Gym which
makes it usable.

Chapter 1
INTRODUCTION
Background of the Project
problems, and releasing endorphins that make people feel happier and relaxed. Fitness
gyms are one of the places people should visit to perform physical activities, and they have
a wide selection of equipment and well-educated staff (Pruthi et al., 2020).
The fitness industry is growing at an exponential rate, which means consumers are
becoming more aware of their wellness. This has also led to a rise in competitive fitness
alternatives such as workout apps and smart home exercise machines (Kaur et al., 2020).
Running a gym are a lot of things that go into it. Some common problems can come
up and there are always things that need to be fixed or improved. Whether it’s dealing with
a lack of members, equipment issues, or financial concerns, many gym owners face
challenges at some point. (Johnson, 2023).
Kirsty (2019) There are many facets to running a fitness club; processes, customer
care, finances, and equipment maintenance are just some of those. Club owners need to
spin a lot of places at once to make a gym work. And if one plate falls and smashes it can
sometimes spell disaster for the whole show.
To provide a good quality of service, fitness gyms should have an organized
management system that would keep records of gym members, attendance of gym
employees, inventory, and the payment of bills to customers. Trainers do not have much
time to look out who comes when every time in the gym. So, at this moment, the gym and
visitor management systems help give benefits, save trainers time, and grow productivity.
Strong Tower Management System with Health Monitoring Progress

Situation Analysis
Strong Tower Fitness Gym, Pangasinan’s largest gym, was owned by Mr. Wilson
De Guzman, located at Belmonte Street, Urdaneta, Pangasinan. Based on the interview
with the owner the existing process was the inventory through paper-based which they put
a lot of time to record in-out products and customers transactions. Thus, equipment
maintenance inventory and transaction recording are also done manually, which takes a
long time. Additionally, the manual procedure may also result in the gathering of inaccurate
information.
The Strong Tower Management System could resolve issues faced through the
manual process including customer enrollment and client information. Whereas the
managing inventory could update through the system that helps them to save time and keep
a thorough record of consumer transactions and could prevent loss of records. It would
automate the manual process of registration, manual setting of workouts and training
programs, manual transaction, monitoring health progress, manual inventory of
equipment’s and lastly the generation of reports.
Statement of Objectives
The primary purpose of this research was to create, design, develop, and monitor a
Strong Tower Management System.
Specifically, it sought to meet the following objectives:
1. Describe the existing process of the Strong Tower Fitness Gym.
2. Identify problems encountered in the manual system.
3. Describe the features of the proposed system.
4. Test the usability of the developed system in terms of the following:
Strong Tower Management System with Health Monitoring Progress 2

a. efficiency
b. effect
c. helpfulness
d. control and learnability
e. overall usability
Significance of the Study
The proposed system significantly improves the owner and its employee above the
manual process of registering new members, monitoring, payment, and inventory. The
management system would help the following recipients:
Administrator. Using the system, they could easily ensure that all administration
and operations run smoothly in the gym. They are also responsible for leading and
maintaining their facilities' day-to-day strategies and operations.
Gym Owners. The system would provide convenience to the gym owners as it
records transactions with its clients, gym equipment, and the attendance of employees
working in the gym, it would help monitor business.
Secretary. This system will help them learn more about the types of data they may
need to watch out for as they continue to work as general secretaries.
Scope and Limitations
Trainers. Using the system, the trainer can manage training sessions and activities,
providing a platform through which customers and trainers can contact each other anytime
and provide their feedback in the most effective way.
Members/Customers. It would provide privacy on their personal information, and
they would not be confused about what workout they would do. The system would provide
guidelines for performing exercises.

Future Researchers. This system would give them ideas that they could use in
their research related to this topic.
The project entitled Strong Tower Management System with Health Monitoring
Application, includes storing information of members, trainers, supplementary,
membership plan and. The system had four (4) users: super admin, secretary, trainer, and
members.
The admin had complete control of the system. The admin could also manage the
employees account and branches. Additionally, the admin is the most responsible for
monitoring members transactions and maintaining the system. The secretary had the
capability to manage the members’ account in assigning a trainer for them based on their
membership plan. Additionally, the secretary could access the workout categories, exercise
categories, equipment and many more. Lastly, secretary is the one who verify and accept
the clients account and do the inventory for the supplements. The trainer had a control in
clients account to assigned workout plans. Also, trainer could view different services. The
members’ account could monitor their BMI through daily update using the system and
members could view the assigned workout plan by the trainer. Also, members could view
the history of their workouts. Additionally, members could view their membership plan,
trainer, validity of membership plan and list of workouts. Lastly, members could view the
supplements that sell on the gym.
The system was automated system for managing the registration, inventory,
monitoring, and transactional processes previously used in the gym. This facilitates
transaction speed and provides more accurate and reliable data. The Strong Tower
Management System aids in maintaining all records of daily activities and transactions

while also promoting productivity in the gym. The system’s scope, however, is limited to
Urdaneta City only. The system does not allow add-to-cart. The system does not include a
payment process. The system is only intended as a web-based management system
although users could still access the system using their mobile phones thru their browsers.
Definition of Terms
The following terminologies are defined operationally and conceptually in the
context of this research to help readers understand the documentation content on how the
project would be developed:
Administrator/ Admin. A system administrator, or sysadmin, or admin is a person
who is responsible for the upkeep, configuration, and reliable operation of computer
systems, especially multi-user computers, such as servers.
Management System. A management system is the way in which an organization
manages the interrelated parts of its business to achieve its objectives. These objectives can
relate to several different topics, including product or service quality, operational
efficiency, environmental performance, health, and safety in the workplace and more.
Technological Advancement. Is the generation or discovery of knowledge that
advances the understanding of science or technology.
Body Mass Index. Using your height and weight, the body mass index (BMI)
determines whether your weight is healthy.
Monitoring. It involves the systematic collection, analysis, and use of data to track
a program's progress toward its goals. Processes, such as when and where activities occur,
who provides them, and how many people or entities they reach, are usually the subject of

Chapter 2
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
This chapter includes a review of related literature and studies for the system,
dubbed "Strong Tower Management System with Health Monitoring Progress," which
aided and served as a guide in creating the system.
Gym Existing Process and Problems Encountered
The existing process of most gyms requires much manual work, which takes longer,
such as misplaced index cards, human error, and a lack of ballpoint pens and index cards.
This is unreliable, as one wrong entry could take much time to detect.
ROSLAN (2019) Gym Management System for MN Fitness Gym was an online
management system that utilized by MN Fitness Gym's gym members, visitors, and
management staff. The system was designed to help the management staff administer the
gym member’s record online, replacing the traditional method that the gym used.
Jane (2019) claimed that manual inventory systems are time consuming and lack
communication. They require physical inventory counts to be performed frequently to
control the items in the inventory, making them difficult to use. Technological inventory
systems provide updates, making it easier to check and order supplies from the office desk.
Features of Gym Management System
Fitness Club Management System this health club administration system will assist
in overcoming such issues by allowing members to schedule desired slots online. In this
fitness club system, there is 3 entities namely, Admin, Member, and Trainer. Admin could
login using credentials. Packages may be managed by the administrator, discounts, and

removing old packages. Admin may control member information by adding, updating, and
removing members. An administrator could access an individual member's package
information. Admin may also check the trainer's attendance record for the member.
Members could login using credentials. They could view their profile and list of trainers.
A trainer could log in using credentials. A trainer could set their profile. A trainer could
take member’s attendance daily, they could also change their password in case of security
(Nevon, 2022).
Usability Testing
According to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), usability is
an outcome of use which can be defined as “the extent to which a system, product or service
can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency and
satisfaction in a specified context of use”.
Therefore, usability testing can be described as the formal assessment of the extent
to which interaction with a product or system is effective, efficient, and perceived as
satisfactory by users. It allows end users to test Electronic Patient Reported Outcome (ePRO)
systems and provides developers the opportunity to evaluate usability.
Based on the ISO definition, the three measures of usability are effectiveness,
efficiency, and satisfaction. Effectiveness refers to the ability of participants to perform
tasks to achieve pre-determined goals completely and accurately without negative
consequences. A negative consequence in the case of an ePRO system might be the
accidental selection of a questionnaire option (due to suboptimal interface layout) which
would send a red alert to clinicians. Efficiency relates to the number of resources required
by participants to achieve the pre-specified goals. An effective and efficient system or

product could be considered as one that offers a better way of achieving specific goals
compared to the current manner. Satisfaction refers to the subjective opinions of
participants based on their experience interacting with a system or product.
Some authors consider satisfaction with a system or product as equivalent to
desirability the presence of which might facilitate the adoption of a system or product with
flawed effectiveness and efficiency. However, it can be argued that a system with
effectiveness or efficiency issues would soon be abandoned regardless of initial
desirability. An ePRO system needs to be rated highly on the three measures of usability
to be considered fit for purpose. In turn, a system perceived as fit for purpose has a better
chance of adoption by patients and clinician’s post-implementation. The context of use
refers to the characteristics of the users, tasks, equipment, and the physical and social
setting in which a system or product is used.
Evaluation of the measures of usability may be achieved by recruiting participants
from the target population to perform pre-determined tasks using the product or system and
provide feedback on their user experiences. Usability testing also provides ePRO
developers the opportunity to detect and fix issues early during system development. It is
important that usability testing is conducted iteratively during system development to
ensure that issues are detected and addressed adequately prior to full-scale implementation.
This ensures that the final product or system is fit for purpose and may reduce attrition
rates post-implementation (Aiyegbusi, 2019)
Synthesis
The synthesis allows us to test and validate hypotheses, understand key processes,
and better design future research efforts. Indeed, when a discipline succeeds in synthesis,

it can make distinct, often epoch-making progress, leading the discipline to higher levels
of understanding of the system being studied (Stewart, 1990).
There are existing projects that have been already developed for the management
of gyms. There’s a program that helps gyms and other similar organizations manage
automate and organize their daily activities. It manages databases, communication, sales,
planning, and training presentation programs, among other things. The studies also
depicted various user requirements and system requirements that could be implemented in
the proposed system. The significant functional requirements are the following:
Membership administration that keeps up-to-date records of training sessions, and
members' contact information, and addresses. Order management require the secure
collection and receipting money. Keeping good records helps companies protect
institutional memory as well as maintain evidence of activities, transactions, and decisions.
An effective records management system can save money on storage and improve an
organization’s efficiency (Weller, 2022). Permits the management, recording, and
reporting of financial data, including earnings and expenses. Tools and equipment data,
member participation, control over gym instructors’ availability. It helps with the
organizing of instructor and costumer details, availability, schedule, and history, among
other things.
The system is like previous studies; nevertheless, it differs in system type and
usable functionality. The system also provides application to fill up, membership
registration, given planned workout plan and diet plan, able to request instructor. The
fitness training center handled by the system administrator. These studies served as a
reference for the developer in terms of the features and developments that were

implemented into the developed system. The non-functional requirements of the proposed
system are the following:
Usability, the system will be easy to use due to the user interface design, allowing
users to easily access information and navigate menus, and Reliability, the system will be
usable and include links that are simple to find. Design thinking process is to empathize
with your users, if you understand your users, you can make designs that are relevant for
them (Mortensen, 2022). The system will display accurate information and send out error
messages when it finds failure or defects. Lastly, the performance where the system will
be data processing optimized, enabling speedy completion of functions and operation.
Conceptual Framework
The proponent employed the Input-Process-Output (IPO) model, which gave a
broad framework and guidelines for the project's direction.
Figure 1 describes the existing process of the Strong Tower Fitness Gym, identifies
problems encountered in the manual system, and describes the features of the proposed
system and the usability test of the system.
The proponent conducted research, interviews, document analysis, and
observations of the current system to understand the system requirements better. These
inputs were necessary for the design and development of the proposed system.
The Rapid Application Development technique, which comprises requirement
planning, user design, construction, and cutover, was used to convert these inputs to the
intended outputs. As a result, the Strong Tower Management System with Health Progress
Monitoring was developed.

METHODOLOGY
Project Design
The proponent used descriptive and developmental research to develop the Strong
Tower Management System with Health Progress Monitoring. Descriptive research aims
to describe a population, situation, or phenomenon accurately and systematically. It could
answer what, where, when, and how questions, but not why questions. A descriptive
research design could use various research methods to investigate one or
more variables. Descriptive Research Definition, Types, Methods & Examples (n.d.)
The " Strong Tower Management System with Health Progress Monitoring "
project was developed using the RAD. Rapid Application Development (RAD)
methodology is a flexible way to create and deploy software applications quickly. The RAD
method is effectively designed to adapt to changes and new inputs like features and functions,
updates, etc. It is designed to be flexible to changes and to accept. New inputs, like features
and functions, at every step of the development process. 6 Essential Questions to Understand
Rapid Application Development Methodology (2022)
Figure 2. Rapid Application Development

The developed project follows the Rapid Application Development methodology,
separated into four phases: requirement planning, user design, construction, and cutover.
Figure 2. shown above are the implementation phases in the Rad model.
Requirements Planning
According to (6 Essential Questions to Understand Rapid Application
Development Methodology, 2022) this phase is equivalent to a project scoping meeting.
Although the planning phase is condensed compared to other project management
methodologies, this is a critical step for the project's ultimate success.
During this stage, developers, clients (software users), and team members
communicate to determine the project's goals and expectations and current and potential
issues that would need to be addressed during the build.
It is essential that everyone could evaluate the goals and expectations for the project
and weigh in. By getting approval from each key stakeholder and developer, teams could
avoid miscommunications and costly change orders.
User Design
Once the project is scoped out, it is time to jump into development, building the
user design through various prototype iterations. (6 Essential Questions to Understand
Rapid Application Development Methodology, 2022)
This is the meat and potatoes of the RAD methodology—and what sets it apart from
other project management strategies. During this phase, clients work hand in hand with
developers to ensure their needs are met at every step in the design process. It is almost

like customizable software development where the users could test each product prototype
at each stage to ensure it meets their expectations.
All the bugs and kinks are worked out in an iterative process. The developer designs
a prototype, and the client (user) tests it. Then they come together to communicate what
worked and what did not.
This method allows developers to tweak the model until they reach a good design.
The software developers and the clients learn from the experience to ensure there is no
potential for something to slip through the cracks.
Construction
(6 Essential Questions to Understand Rapid Application Development
Methodology, 2022) stated that most problems and changes were addressed during the
thorough iterative design phase, developers could construct the final working model more
quickly than they could by following a traditional project management approach.
The software development team of programmers, coders, testers, and developers
work together during this stage to ensure everything works smoothly and that the result
satisfies the client’s expectations and objectives.
This third phase is essential because the client still gets to give input throughout the
process. They could suggest alterations, changes, or even new ideas that could solve
problems as they arise.
Cutover
(6 Essential Questions to Understand Rapid Application Development
Methodology, 2022) claimed that this is the implementation phase, where the finished

product goes to launch. It includes data conversion, testing, the changeover to the new
system, and user training.
The proponents integrate and test the proposed system while the coders and clients
continue to look for bugs in the system.
Population Locale of Study
The study was conducted in Urdaneta City and Bayambang, Pangasinan, and an
interview with the owner of the Fitness Gym was conducted to determine what and how
the work is done inside their gymnasium. The other members were also interviewed about
their experiences and to understand the different processes inside the organization.
To collect more important data for the study, a survey questionnaire would be
distributed to thirty (30) employees of Strong Tower Fitness Gym-Urdaneta Branch via a
google form. A simple random sampling procedure used for selecting the participants.
Data Instrumentation
The following are the data-gathering tools that the proponents would use to further
describe the needed information about the respondents.
For Objectives No. 1 and No. 2, the proponents used structured interviews to
gather data and information for the system's development. For Objective No. 1, the
interview focused on understanding the existing process of the Strong Tower Fitness Gym.
For Objective No. 2, the interview focused on determining the problems encountered in
the company’s current work process.
For Objective 3, the proponents used prototyping tools to show visualizations of

the system’s design to understand the look and feel of the final product and gain insights
into how real users would use the product.
For Objective 4, The proponents used an online survey questionnaire based on
Software Usability Measurement Inventory (SUMI) focusing on: (a) Efficiency, (b) Effect,
(c) Helpfulness, (d) Control, and (e) Learnability. To understand how the end-users used
the system and their preferred features in measuring the usability of the Strong Tower
Management System with Health Monitoring Application according to the user’s
evaluation and determine whether the system was helpful and efficient.
Data Analysis
This section covered the data analysis tools that would be utilized to collect and
understand the data required to create the system development requirements.
For objective 1, the data gathered in the interview was utilized as a guide for
automating the current system's processes. The manual processes would be visually
represented using a Data Flow Diagram.
For objective 2, the proponents identified and assessed the company's current
issues with the manual process, using the information gleaned from the interview. The
manual processes would be visually represented using the Ishikawa diagram.
For objective 3, the proponents employed the Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD)
for the system's database design. The proponents used Data Flow Diagram to visualize the
system's flow and get a picture of the functionality needed for the system.
For Objective 4, the data was gathered from the SUMI questionnaire. The

Implementation Plan
Strong Tower Management System uses many applications and programming
interfaces. MySQL for the database, Hypertext Markup Language, Cascading Style Sheets,
JavaScript, and PHP for the back end and front-end. A web server hosts the system online
so that users could view it. The system is also suitable for users for automated attendance
and online profile. The Strong Tower Management is the best option for it, and it reduces
and removes the manual and traditional workload. Administrators could easily add/ delete/
update/view each record on the server.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
The existing process of the strong tower fitness gym
The Existing Process of the Strong Tower Fitness Gym. The proponents used a data
flow diagram (DFD) to show the flow of the processes and data transfer from one entity to
another. It shows the system's flow and functionalities, as illustrated in the model below.
Figure 3. Strong Tower Gym Existing Process DFD

Figure 4. Strong Tower Gym Existing Process Level 1 DFD

The existing process of Strong Tower Gymnasium had branches around
Pangasinan. Because of that, he needs to hire some employees to manage his gymnasium.
Using logbooks, notebooks, and some index cards, he records all the essential details of his
employees. Furthermore, all the customers who want to become a member must register in
their registration form. Afterward, the gymnasium employee records the customer's
information to become a fitness gym member. The member of the Strong Tower Fitness
Gym needs to choose the wanted plan they want, like silver, gold, or platinum plan, where
they could start building. Using different equipment, the members could use all the
equipment with the permission of the trainers/employees of the gym. One of the gym's
employees, a trainer, could provide services to a specific member in additional payment.
Strong Tower Fitness Gym recommends some of its products to its members, like whey
protein and amino acids. Lastly, the owner uses his notes and cards to record all the
inventory details regarding sales, bills, and payment of the products.
Problems encountered using the manual process of strong tower fitness gym.
Figure 5. Ishikawa Diagram

To describe the problems encountered by the company with its manual operation,
the proponents interviewed the owner and branch manager of the Strong Tower
Gymnasium.
According to Mr. Wilson De Guzman, owner of Strong tower Gymnasium, the
main problem in the manual process is a human error in their management. The most
common mistake is misplacing the logbook that keeps the member’s details, including their
transactions. Also, they manually compute their monthly sales to generate their sales report.
After that, the sales report's hard copy is handed over to the owner.
Another problem encountered in the manual process is the paper-based product
inventory. The branch manager manually records the quantity of each product every time
there are newly arrived stocks. In addition, the branch manager updates their remaining
stock quantity daily before generating an inventory report. Some significant problems in
managing inventory manually include being time-consuming, redundant, and vulnerable to
errors. In addition, records may also be misplaced or lost.
Features of the strong tower management system
This provides a summary of the expected features that the system must possess to
perform its functionalities.
The Strong Tower Management System with Health Monitoring Progress would be
the official site of the Strong Tower Fitness Gym. This time, the system's workflow could
be considered dissimilar from the current system wherein operations are done manually.
To start the process, data serves as the input. The data entered by the users would
be directly stored in the database. The system provides information regarding customer

info, sales transaction, contracts, inventory details, and reports, such as sales reports and
inventory reports that are stored to facilitate faster retrieval.
Each user could access features depending on their user type inside the company.
Some features are not accessible by a typical employee and could only be accessed by the
company's owner.
To start with the system walkthrough, the data flow diagram of the Strong Tower
Management System with Health Monitoring Progress is shown in figure 6.

Figure 6. Level 1 Data Flow Diagram of Strong Tower Management System

The idea behind Strong Tower Management System is like how the current process
and other related studies are designed. The system's workflow differs from the current
process, wherein operations are done manually.
The developed system serves as a way of centralizing all information entered in one
system for easier record keeping. It is also expected to provide access between the Owner,
Employee, and Member.
The owner could manage the inventory, membership plans, walk-in clients,
employees, and branches.
The secretary could manage the services, inventory, membership plans, client
plans, and walk-in clients. Additionally, the secretary places the client's trainer based on
their membership plan.
The trainer could manage the clients placed by the secretary, and the trainer is the
one who places clients' workout plans.
The members could manage their BMI, today’s workout, workout plans, and past
activities. Additionally, members could view the available supplements that could be
bought.

SUMMARY, CONCLUSION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Summary
problems, and releasing endorphins. Fitness gyms are one of the best places to exercise,
with a wide selection of equipment and well-educated staff. To provide a good quality of
service, fitness gyms should have an organized management system that keeps records of
members, employees, inventory, and bills. This system would help guide customers in
doing proper exercise and improve the productivity of business owners.
The proponents designed and developed the Strong Tower Management System
that solved the problems in the manual process that the gymnasium has. The proposed
system provides a more efficient way of managing service, inventory, workouts, and
membership plans. The developed system also provided a portal for members to monitor
their BMI and activities.
The main objective of this project is to design and develop a management system
for Strong Tower Fitness Gym to lessen the time consumed in performing vital tasks such
as inventory management and sales monitoring. More specifically, the study described the
existing process the gymnasium implements. Furthermore, the study also identified the
problems encountered by the stakeholders with the current process. The study also showed
the features integrated into the developed system. Lastly, the usability of the developed
system was measured in terms of efficiency, affect, helpfulness, control, and learnability.
To achieve these objectives, the proponents used Rapid Application Development
as the foundation for the development of the Strong Management System with Health

Monitoring Progress, followed by an interview to identify the existing process of the
current system, problems encountered with the manual process, and identify the features
to be integrated into the system to maximize the system’s functionality.
Moreover, significant result based on the problem were also given. The following
findings were provided by the research objective: (1) Describe the existing process of the
Strong Tower Fitness Gym; (2) Identify problems encountered in the manual system; (3)
Describe the features of the proposed system; (4) Test the usability of the developed system
using SUMI.
The most common problem in the manual process is human error. This includes
misplacing the logbook, compute monthly sales, and manually generate a sales report.
Paper-based product inventory is also a major problem, as it is time-consuming, redundant,
and vulnerable to errors. Additionally, records may be misplaced or lost.
The feature of the developed system includes viewing of membership plan, trainers,
and available supplements. Through the system the inventory process and generating report
is easier and efficiently. Also, through the system clients could monitor their health
progress using the BMI.
A survey focused on efficiency, affect, helpfulness, control, and learnability was
administered to test the system’s usability. Based on the result of usability testing, the
system was able to meet the expectation and requirements of the owner of Strong Tower
Fitness Gym which makes it usable.
Conclusions
Based on the analysis of the gathered information, the proponents arrived at the
following conclusion.

1. Through this proposal, the proponent solved the existing process of the
gymnasium, and as a result, the system provides features.
2. Through this proposal, the proponent identified the existing problem of the
gymnasium using the fishbone diagram. As a result, the system provides an
efficient and easy way for the Strong Tower Fitness Gym to record and
manage employee and member information with the system's features.
3. Through this proposal, the system could provide an efficient and easy way
for the gymnasium employees and members to record and manage member
and client information, services, membership plan, workouts, and inventory
reports.
Recommendations
Based on the findings and conclusions of the study, the following recommendations
are proposed.
1. The proponents recommend that future researchers add a feature where
customers could use online ordering and payment.
2. The system must be updated relative to the needs of the users.
3. The proponents recommend that future researchers create a mobile application.
