Top Fitness Trends in 2020 to Help You Start Your Journey
As we start our journey into the new decade, we are all faced with the drive to be more fit and live an overall healthier, more positive lifestyle. While there are a lot of trends out there, the most important aspect in each trend is setting goals and holding yourself accountable for reaching them. At Green Revolution, we have products geared towards fitness and wellness enthusiasts and with that in mind, we have curated a few of the 2020 fitness trends to help you start on the right track.
Group Training
Group training may seem daunting and scary for many fitness novices, or enthusiasts starting new fitness routines. The trend for many gyms and trainers is creating a small group training environment that allows for trainers to work with each individual in the group to improve form, motivate and create community. If you are new to a gym or sick of working out alone, take a look at the classes your gym offers. From CrossFit to fun runs, building a community of like-minded individuals is the easiest and quickest way to motivate you and hold you accountable as you work towards your fitness goals.
Wearable Tech
Whether you strap on an Apple Watches, Garmin, Fitbit, Whoop, or whatever the newest tech may be wearable fitness tech continues to be sought out by beginners and advanced fitness enthusiasts. Per the American College of Sports Medicine, Wearable Technology has become an almost $95 Billion dollar industry and continues to top every fitness trends list. Studies show that wearing one of these functional and fashionable devices promotes goal setting and helps to hold the user accountable for hitting their goals. Whatever that goal may be, wearable tech may be the boost you need to take that first step.
Body Weight Training
Body weight training is an oldie, but goodie that has to be included in this list. You hear that “you are what you eat”, but what about “be able to move what you have”? No equipment or memberships needed, body weight training offers a way to build muscle, shred fat, and increase your cardio in any environment. This type of training is all about using the weight of your own body as a training tool in various movements. Going for a run, doing bodyweight squats, push-ups, and the dreaded Burpee, are some of the quickest ways to jump-start your 2020 fitness journey. It may be tough to start, but as some have said, life doesn’t get easier, you just get stronger.
Exercise as Medicine
Exercise is Medicine is a global health initiative backed by the American College of Sports Medicine with the goal of promoting physical fitness and physical activity as a method of clinical care. Paired with evidence-based practices for health and wellness, EIM aims to create a system of care that promotes physical activity as a way to build overall health as well as a preventative measure for medical conditions. While this is still a relatively new health initiative, EIM and starting to gain some traction, so don’t be surprised, or offended, if your primary care professional “prescribes” a gym membership.
Fitness Programs for Older Adults
A body that is in motion, stays in motion. With the average life span increasing due to better health practices and technology, a focus on the Older Adult cohort has also increased. Walk into any gym, CrossFit box, or sign up for a group class and you will find members of any age working on living a healthier, more positive life.
