Is 2025 the year you finally stick to that resolution and get in better shape? Here’s some useful info that could help. A new poll looked at four fitness trends to expect this year.
1. Team sports and studio-based workouts are trendy. 19% of people who work out regularly expect to participate in team sports this year, up from 11% in 2020. Studio-based workouts like yoga and spin classes are up three points.
2. Personal trainers are still popular, but trending down. 21% said they’d worked with a health or wellness coach recently, down from 25% last year. But that’s still higher than 18% in 2023. They’re great, but also expensive.
3. More people at your gym will be on Ozempic. The poll found people on weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy tend to prefer working out in a gym. They’re less likely to exercise at home or outdoors.
4. Turning your workout into a game is more popular. That means things like Apple Watch challenges and Fitbit badges. 8% “always” gamify their work out, up from 6%. Another 16% said sometimes, up four points.
