As such, it is important to promote personalized and intelligent ways to assure the active and healthy ageing of the population.

Furthermore, defining motivational strategies to persuade the elderly person to be healthier and stay connected to such systems is also fundamental. In this work, a coaching system is presented, especially designed to support elderly people and motivate them to pursue healthier ways of living.
