We see a lot of fitness trends coming around every few months. Every single one aims to promise amazing and fast results. However, it’s important to remember that when it comes to fitness, one size does not fit all.
In order to succeed, you should practice an exercise that you love, so you won’t give it up after a few weeks.
According to fitness professionals, here are the main fitness trends for 2019:
1. Wearable Technology
Any and all technological apparatus that can be “dressed” to aid in training and accompany health. For example, pedometers that measures the power of running, watches that mark all the indexes on your body and workout, and T-shirts that have a GPS location. The fusion of fitness and technology gives no sign of going anywhere, so expect to see even more ways to track and monitor your fitness in 2019.
2. Group Training
Group trainings serve to motivate participants, thus becoming increasingly effective. Nonetheless, it’s important that they are performed with professionals who know how to lead the participants to different levels of intensity
3. HIIT
Characterized by little resting intervals between exercises. HIIT serves to increase the caloric expenditure and achieve a better physical conditioning. Usually a workout like this has a maximum duration of 30 minutes, which is similar to low intensity workouts of 60 minutes or more. The best part? You can try a HIIT workout right from your living room.
4. Bodyweight Training
It can be practiced anywhere and is very effective. This type of training is gaining more and more popularity. The purpose of training with body weight is to work the muscles of the body, in addition to improving the resistance.
5. Employing Certified Fitness Professionals
Some classes provided by academies, such as Zumba and Crossfit, require a special certificate from the professionals who conduct the classes. Because they provide different movements and sensations in those who practice, these classes are increasingly on the rise.
6. Yoga
The modality provides numerous benefits for those who practice it, involving increased concentration. It helps prevent injury, increases the body’s oxygenation capacity, and relieves stress and anxiety.
7. Functional Fitness Training
Improves endurance, posture, strength and flexibility – something that many runners and interested in a healthy life are looking for. Functional training can be practiced in many ways, and can be a great bet for 2019.
8. Exercise Is Medicine
Completing the ranking of fitness trends for 2019 and according to an initiative called Exercise is medicine, some doctors should prescribe treatments linked to exercise and physical activity as a form of treatment for some diseases. In fact, exercise helps in health and the better quality of life.
