Start making your exercise and fitness plans now. The 2010 year is upon us and things are changing. I follow Club Industry Fitness Magazine for articles and research on several topics. I have copied part of an article revealing the new fitness trends coming our way.
In 2010, consumers will seek out educated, experienced fitness professionals, according to the American College of Sports Medicine’s (ACSM) top fitness trends survey. The fourth-annual ACSM survey was based on feedback from 1,500 respondents. Some 37 potential trends were given as survey choices, with the top 20 ranked and published by ACSM.
Strength training was listed second in the rankings, which is an indicator of the increased focus on strength training for various populations, survey authors noted.
ACSM’s top 10 fitness trends for 2010 are:
1. Educated and experienced fitness professionals
2. Strength training
3. Children and obesity
4. Personal training (we offer this at the Rec Center)
5. Core training
6. Special fitness programs for older adults
7. Functional fitness
8. Sport-specific training
9. Pilates
10. Group personal training
What will it be? We all fall into one of these categories of improvement needed!
