The pandemic has changed how we exercise. Health experts have made some predictions about this year’s workout trends. Because of social spacing, people had to alter how they maintained their fitness, but many clever trainers and gym owners have found ways to make activities in 2022 useful, fun, and safe.
Events
Fitness centers are making workouts events. Most people will come to these event-style training sessions once a month. The rest of the time, they will do their routine at home. These festival-like classes encourage people to return to the gym.
They are a way to socialize in a pre-planned environment, and they will be rare. Because they are limited, the classes will likely feel special, and they allow people to break up their home routine.
Gym owners are having people sign up ahead of time. That way, they can control the crowd.
Celebrities
This year some trainers are becoming celebrities in their own right. Many new styles are emerging. Some people are going the rock star route, while others are going for glamor.
This technique will work well on online platforms. The trainers can prepare the stage and put on a show for their clients, and the participants can get some entertainment and motivation with a workout partner that matches their lifestyle.
Music
Because many people prefer to isolate themselves on a treadmill or stationary bike at home, the demand for workout music has grown exponentially.
The market is just catching up, so this year, look for many new soundtracks and music catalogs geared just for runners, walkers, rowers, weight lifters, and cyclists. Producers will stream these tunes into everyone’s phone via Amazon or other app stores.
Hobby
People are morphing their hobbies into genuine workouts. Some legendary ones are golf and disc golf. Skip the golf cart when you hit the links, and play disc golf for at least an hour.
Gardening is a popular hobby for many people, and if you want to make it a little more strenuous, don’t be afraid to dig a little longer or carry heavy bags and buckets. Wear a fitness tracker while you are working outside. You might be pleasantly surprised to discover that you got in a lot of steps just by tending to your flowers and vegetables.
Birdwatchers have also made their hobby into an outdoor fitness sport. Instead of staying at one spot, birders purposefully walk from one platform to another.
