Resumo
Objetivo: Este artigo desenvolve um framework de inteligência competitiva para determinar os resultados da aptidão física a partir da análise de dados. O trabalho discute um problema prático comum a organizações esportivas, plataformas de fitness, programas de saúde pública, universidades e serviços clínicos de exercício: grandes volumes de dados de atividade física e saúde estão sendo produzidos, porém a maioria das instituições não possui um sistema que permita converter esses dados em inteligência acionável para antecipar desempenho, adesão, recuperação e riscos relacionados à aptidão física.
Metodologia/abordagem: O estudo consiste em uma síntese baseada em análise integrativa da literatura, seguida por uma ilustração analítica baseada em simulação. Foi realizada uma revisão da literatura recente sobre inteligência competitiva, sport analytics, wearables, aprendizado de máquina, monitoramento de atividade física e inteligência artificial ética, publicada entre 2021 e 2025, para definir o framework. A partir disso, foi operacionalizado um painel sintético de observações repetidas de fitness, fundamentado na literatura, permitindo a aplicação de engenharia de atributos, benchmarking de modelos, avaliação de calibração, tradução para decisões gerenciais e monitoramento de drift após a implantação.
Originalidade/Relevância: A originalidade do artigo reside na capacidade de integrar a lógica da inteligência competitiva com a análise preditiva aplicada à aptidão física. Pesquisas anteriores normalmente investigaram separadamente monitoramento por wearables, previsão de desempenho físico ou sport analytics. Este trabalho reposiciona a previsão da aptidão física como uma forma de inteligência capaz de apoiar decisões antecipatórias, priorizar recursos, orientar intervenções personalizadas e sustentar vantagem competitiva.
Principais resultados: O modelo demonstra que previsões úteis de aptidão física emergem da integração entre variáveis fisiológicas, carga de treinamento, comportamento, recuperação e sinais contextuais analisados em janelas temporais móveis e avaliados por meio de validação aninhada. Modelos baseados em árvores de decisão aprimoradas (boosted trees) e modelos temporais apresentaram melhor desempenho discriminatório na ilustração analítica. Entretanto, a qualidade de implantação também depende de critérios como calibração, explicabilidade, monitoramento de drift e governança para priorização de intervenções.
Contribuições teóricas/metodológicas: O artigo aplica a teoria da inteligência competitiva ao contexto da indústria de análise de aptidão física e propõe um modelo aplicável tanto para pesquisadores quanto para gestores. O estudo acrescenta uma perspectiva processual sobre como organizações podem transformar dados brutos em inteligência prospectiva, define variáveis críticas e alternativas de modelagem para previsão da aptidão física e apresenta uma agenda de pesquisa futura envolvendo validação, equidade algorítmica, interoperabilidade e interação humano-IA.
