3.6 Conceptual models:

3.6.1 ER Diagram:

ER Model is a popular high level conceptual data model. This model and its
variations are frequently used for the conceptual design of database application
and many database design tools employ its concept. An entity -relationship model

35
 describes interrelated things of interest in a specific domain of knowledge. A
basic ER model is composed of entity types and specifies relationships that can
exist between entities. An entity-relationship diagram (ERD) shows the
relationships of entity sets stored in a database. By defining the entities, their
attributes, and showing the relationships between them, an ER Diagram illustrates
the logical structure of databases. ER diagrams are used to sketch out the design
of a database. There are three basic elements in an ER Diagram:

Entity
An entity is an object or component of data. An entity is represented as
Rectangle in an ER diagram.

Attribute
Attributes are included to include details of the various entities that are
highlighted in a conceptual ER diagram. Attributes are characteristics of an:
◊ Many -to-many
◊ Many-to-one
◊ One-to-many
◊ One-to-one

● Relationships
Relationships are represented by a diamond-shaped box. Name of the
relationship is inside the diamond-box. Also, there are weak entities, multi valued
attributes,
derived attribute, weal relationship, and recursive relationship.
The entities and their relationships between them are shown using the
following
conventions.
◊An entity is shown in a rectangle.

3.6.2 Class Diagram:

A class diagram is a type of static structure diagram that describes the structure of a system
by showing its classes, their attributes, methods, and the relationships among objects. It is a
core component of Unified Modeling Language (UML) and is widely used in software
engineering for designing and visualizing systems.

38
 3.6.3 Use Case Diagram:

A use case diagram at its simplest is a representation of a user’s interaction with the system
that shows the relationship between the user and the different use cases in which the user is
involved. A use case is methodology used in system analysis to identify, clarify, and organize
system requirements. In this context, the term "system” refers to something being developed
or operated, such as a mail-order product sales and service Website.

Actor:
Actor in a UML Use Case Diagram is any entity (person, organization or external system)
that performs a role in one given system. This could be a person, organization or an external
system.

Use Case:
A use case in a UML Use Case Diagram gives a visual representation of a distinct business
functionalities in a system

System:
A system in a UML Use Case Diagram is a rectangle spanning all the use cases in the system
that defines the scope of your system. Anything within the box represents functionality that
is in scope and anything outside is not. Note that the actors in the system are outside the
system.

39
40
4.3. Sequence Diagram:
A sequence diagram is a visual representation of how objects and processes interact
in a system over time. It's a type of interaction diagram in the Unified Modeling
Language (UML) that shows the sequence of messages exchanged between objects.

41
4.3. Activity Diagram:

Activity diagram is basically a flowchart to represent the flow from one activity
to another activity. An activity diagram is a behavioral diagram i.e. it depicts the
behavior of a system. An activity diagram portrays the control flow from a start
point to a finish point showing the various decision paths that exist while the
activity is being executed

42
 4.4. Flow Chart Diagram:

The system flow diagram is a visual representation of all processed in sequential order.
The System flow chart diagram is a graphical representation of the relation between all the
major parts or step of the system. Flow chart diagram can not include minor parts of the
system.

A class diagram is a visual representation of the objects in a system, categorized

by class types. Each class type is represented as a rectangle with three
compartments for the class name, attributes, and operations.
43
 Class Name:
The name of the class appears in the first partition.

Class Attributes:
Attributes are shown in the second partition. The attribute type is shown after
the colon. Attributes map onto member variables (data members) in code.

Class Operations (Methods):

Operations are shown in the third partition. They are services the class provides.
The return type of a method is shown after the colon at the end of the method
signature. The return type of method parameters is shown after the colon
following the parameter name.

4.6. State Transition Diagram:

A state transition diagram (STD) is a type of diagram that represents the different
transition states of a system. STDs are also known as dynamic models. They are
used to model objects that have a finite number of possible states.

State:
A condition during the life of an object in which it satisfies some condition,
performs some action, or waits for some event.
Event:
An occurrence that may trigger a state transition. Event types include an explicit
signal from outside the system, an invocation from inside the system.
Guard:
A boolean expression which, if true, enables an event to cause a transition.
Transition:
The change of state within an object.
Action:
One or more actions taken by an object in response to a state change.

44
4.7. Data Flow Diagram 0 level:
A data flow diagram (DFD) maps out the flow of information for any process or
system. It uses defined symbols like rectangles, circles and arrows, plus short text
labels, to show data inputs, outputs, storage points and the routes between each
destination.

4.2.2 Data Integrity and Constraints

Data Integrity and Constraints for the Fitness Training System

To ensure data accuracy, consistency, and reliability across the fitness training
system, the following data integrity principles and constraints are implemented
within the database schema:

1. Primary Key Constraints

Primary keys ensure the uniqueness of each record within a table and provide a
reference point for relationships with other tables.

User Table: user_id is the primary key, ensuring that each user is unique.
Trainer Table: trainer_id is the primary key.
Workout Plan Table: workout_plan_id is the primary key.
Exercise Table: exercise_id is the primary key.
55
Nutrition Plan Table: nutrition_plan_id is the primary key.
Meal Table: meal_id is the primary key.
Health Metrics Table: metric_id is the primary key.
AI Recommendation Table: recommendation_id is the primary key.
Progress Tracking Table: progress_id is the primary key.
Challenges Table: challenge_id is the primary key.
Challenge Participation Table: participation_id is the primary key.

2. Foreign Key Constraints

Foreign keys enforce referential integrity by ensuring that relationships between

tables are valid and consistent. This prevents orphaned records and maintains data
linkage.

Trainer Table:
user_id references User(user_id).

Workout Plan Table:

user_id references User(user_id).
trainer_id references Trainer(trainer_id).

Exercise Table:
workout_plan_id references WorkoutPlan(workout_plan_id).

Nutrition Plan Table:

user_id references User(user_id).
trainer_id references Trainer(trainer_id).

Meal Table:

56
nutrition_plan_id references NutritionPlan(nutrition_plan_id).

Health Metrics Table:

device_id references WearableDevice(device_id).
user_id references User(user_id).

AI Recommendation Table:
user_id references User(user_id).

Progress Tracking Table:

user_id references User(user_id).
workout_plan_id references WorkoutPlan(workout_plan_id).
nutrition_plan_id references NutritionPlan(nutrition_plan_id).

3. Unique Constraints

Unique constraints ensure that specific columns within a table have unique values
across all records. This is important for columns like user emails, device IDs, or other
identifiers.

User Table:
email is unique to ensure that no two users share the same email address.

Trainer Table:
user_id is unique to ensure that a user can only be associated with one trainer profile.

4. Not Null Constraints

57
Not null constraints ensure that certain fields cannot have a null value, which is
critical for essential fields like user login credentials and plan parameters.

User Table:
first_name, last_name, email, password_hash, and fitness_level are all NOT NULL.

Workout Plan Table:

goal, intensity, duration are NOT NULL.

Nutrition Plan Table:

caloric_goal, macronutrient_split are NOT NULL.

5. Check Constraints
Check constraints enforce domain-specific rules that control the data entered into a
column to ensure logical consistency.

User Table:
age check constraint: Ensure that age is within a valid range (e.g., age >= 0 and age
<= 120).

height and weight check constraints: Ensure that height and weight are within
realistic limits (e.g., height > 0, weight > 0).

Workout Plan Table:

intensity check constraint: Limit intensity levels to specific values, such as
('beginner', 'intermediate', 'advanced').

Nutrition Plan Table:

macronutrient_split check constraint: Ensure the macronutrient split is in the correct
format, and total percentage equals 100% (e.g., carbs + protein + fat = 100).

58
Health Metrics Table:
metric_type check constraint: Restrict metric types to valid values such as
('heart_rate', 'steps', 'calories', 'sleep').

Challenge Participation Table:

status check constraint: Restrict status to ('active', 'completed', 'failed').

6. Default Constraints

Default constraints provide a default value for a column when no explicit value is
provided.

User Table:
date_created and last_login default to CURRENT_TIMESTAMP.

Workout Plan Table:

start_date defaults to CURRENT_TIMESTAMP.

Progress Tracking Table:

date_logged defaults to CURRENT_TIMESTAMP.

AI Recommendation Table:
date_generated defaults to CURRENT_TIMESTAMP.

7. Cascade on Delete/Update

59
Cascade rules are applied to ensure data consistency when deleting or updating
records that are referenced by foreign keys.

Workout Plan Table:

ON DELETE CASCADE for user_id and trainer_id, ensuring that deleting a user or
trainer deletes the associated workout plans.

Nutrition Plan Table:

ON DELETE CASCADE for user_id and trainer_id, ensuring that deleting a user or
trainer deletes the associated nutrition plans.

Health Metrics Table:

ON DELETE CASCADE for device_id and user_id, ensuring that deleting a

wearable device or user also deletes their associated health metrics.

8. Foreign Key Actions

Foreign keys are defined with actions such as CASCADE or SET NULL to handle
updates or deletions appropriately. For example:

On Update Cascade: If a primary key referenced by a foreign key is updated, the

update cascades to all related tables.

60
On Delete Cascade: If a record in the primary table is deleted, all related records in
the foreign table are deleted.

On Delete Set Null: When a referenced record is deleted, foreign key fields are set to
NULL in the dependent records.

9. Data Validation at Application Level

In addition to database constraints, application-level validation ensures that certain

business rules are enforced before data is written to the database. For example:

Workout Intensity and Duration: Ensure that the intensity level corresponds to
realistic durations (e.g., a beginner plan cannot have extreme durations).

AI Recommendations: Validate that any adjustments made by the AI are in line with
the user’s goals and health metrics.

Summary

The data integrity and constraints outlined ensure that the fitness training system is
robust, reliable, and capable of handling complex user data with accuracy. By
enforcing primary and foreign key constraints, uniqueness, non-null constraints,
check constraints, cascading updates and deletes, and default values, the system
maintains consistent and valid data across all tables. Additionally, validation at both
the database and application level prevents invalid data entry and ensures the system
behaves according to the business logic.

61

4.5 Security Issues

72
Security Issues for Fitness Training System

A fitness training system, like any web or mobile application that handles sensitive user
data, must prioritize security. The system deals with personal data, health information, and
potentially financial transactions, making it a prime target for cyber threats. Below are key
security issues that the system could face, along with recommendations for mitigating these
risks.

1. Data Privacy and Protection

Issue: The fitness system collects a vast amount of personal information, including names,
emails, fitness goals, health data (e.g., weight, medical conditions), and potentially payment
details. Unauthorized access to this data could lead to privacy violations and identity theft.

Mitigation:

Implement encryption for sensitive data both in transit (via TLS/SSL) and at rest (AES-256
or similar).

Follow privacy regulations like GDPR or HIPAA (if applicable) to ensure user data is
handled securely.

Limit data access to only necessary personnel through role-based access controls (RBAC).

2. Insecure Authentication and Authorization

Issue: Weak authentication mechanisms, such as passwords without complexity

requirements, or poor session management, can lead to unauthorized access to user
accounts.

Mitigation:

Enforce strong password policies (minimum length, use of special characters, numbers,
etc.).

Implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) to provide an additional layer of security.

Use OAuth or other secure token-based authentication mechanisms for external service
integrations.
73
3. Insufficient Session Management

Issue: Improper session handling (e.g., long-lasting sessions, insecure cookie storage) can
lead to session hijacking attacks, where attackers take over a user’s active session.

Mitigation:

Use short-lived session tokens and automatically log users out after periods of inactivity.

Store session cookies securely by marking them as HTTP-only and secure, preventing client-
side access.

Implement server-side checks to validate user sessions continuously and monitor for
anomalies.

4. Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

Issue: If user input is not properly sanitized, attackers can inject malicious scripts into web
pages, potentially stealing user data or impersonating them.

Mitigation:

Sanitize and validate all user inputs to remove potentially harmful scripts or content.

Implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to prevent unauthorized script execution.

Encode output when rendering user-generated content in the UI.

5. Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

Issue: Attackers can trick authenticated users into executing unwanted actions on the system
(e.g., changing their profile details) by exploiting the trust between the browser and the
system.

Mitigation:

Implement anti-CSRF tokens in all forms and user-initiated actions.

Require re-authentication for sensitive actions (e.g., password change, payment updates).

Ensure that sensitive requests are validated with a server-side session or token
mechanism.

74
6. API Vulnerabilities

Issue: Exposed or unprotected APIs can be exploited to gain unauthorized access to user data
or system functions, especially if the APIs handle authentication, workout tracking, or data
synchronization with wearable devices.

Mitigation:

Secure APIs with strong authentication and authorization (e.g., OAuth 2.0).

Rate-limit API requests to prevent brute-force or denial-of-service attacks.

Regularly scan APIs for vulnerabilities using tools like OWASP ZAP or Burp Suite.

7. Insecure Data Storage on Mobile Devices

Issue: Mobile fitness apps often store sensitive information locally on the device, which may
be vulnerable if the device is compromised or lost.

Mitigation:

Avoid storing sensitive information (e.g., passwords, personal data) on the device. If
necessary, encrypt the data using strong encryption methods (e.g., AES-256).

Implement device-level security such as biometric authentication (fingerprint, face ID) to

access the app.

Automatically log users out after a period of inactivity or when the app is closed.

8. Insecure Third-Party Integrations

Issue: The fitness training system may integrate with third-party services like payment
gateways or health data services. Poorly secured third-party services can introduce
vulnerabilities to the system.

Mitigation:

75
 Vet all third-party services for security compliance and ensure they follow industry
standards.

Use secure APIs and regularly update third-party libraries to avoid known vulnerabilities.

Monitor third-party systems for potential security breaches or data leakage.

9. Insider Threats

Issue: Employees or authorized users of the system could misuse their access privileges to
steal or manipulate sensitive data.

Mitigation:

Implement least privilege access control, ensuring that employees and users only have access
to the data they need.

Regularly audit system access logs and monitor for suspicious activity.

Use role-based access control (RBAC) to manage user privileges across the system.
