The fitness landscape is rapidly evolving and staying ahead can be the difference between thriving in business or struggling immensely.
I recently delivered a presentation at our client event that discussed the 4 major changes that are taking place that you need to be aware of…
Here are the key takeaways:
1. Change in Preferences
Fitness goals are diversifying.
Strength training is now the primary goal for 36% of enthusiasts, a trend bolstered by the rise of “Sculpt” classes and strength-only boutique clubs.
Meanwhile, wellness outpaces traditional fitness searches, with mental and emotional well-being leading the reasons for exercise.
Additionally, the “less is more” approach, focusing on activities like Pilates, breathwork, and mindfulness, is gaining traction.
2. Technology
The future is digital.
Emerging technologies are revolutionising personalisation, accountability, and injury prevention, offering a holistic view of client wellness.
3. The Physical Gym Space
The design and layout of fitness spaces are transforming.
Expect open designs, strategic placement of equipment, enhanced lighting, and dedicated areas for rest and recovery.
The emphasis is on creating environments that cater to the evolving needs of the fitness community.
4. Weight Loss Drugs
As the most significant disruptor, the weight loss drug market is projected to reach $100 billion by 2030.
These medications are not only changing the landscape of weight management but also how fitness brands and services align with new consumer behaviours and expectations.
These trends represent just the tip of the iceberg.
Embracing them could redefine your business strategy, ensuring you remain at the forefront of this dynamic industry.
Stay ahead, stay informed.
