We previously reported on the top 20 fitness trends for 2020 according to the annual survey by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM). Here’s how Technogym can help you integrate some of them into your fitness plan. 

Wearable Technology (#1)

The Trend: Use wearable tech to take control of your health. These advanced devices make it easier for you to collect important health metrics and work with fitness professionals to improve exercise efficiency.

The Strategy: Use Technogym’s Mywellness app to measure and aggregate all data surrounding your physical activities, both inside the gym and out. Learn more about the fully integrated personal health and fitness system here.

HIIT (#2)

The Trend: By pushing your body full force for a shorter amount of time, you’re getting a strength training workout, cardio workout, and a full-body workout all at once.

The Strategy: With Skillrun, you can go beyond cardio and mimic sled pushes and resistance sprint training. Click here to see why this treadmill is best for short, sharp high-intensity interval training (HIIT) sessions.

Group Training (#3)

Training with Free Weights (#4)

The Trend: The focus is on getting the proper form for exercises using barbells, kettlebells, dumbbells, and medicine balls. 

The Strategy: With their innovative and ergonomic designs, Technogym Free Weights guarantee strength training for all levels. 

Personal Training (#5) and Employing Certified Fitness Professionals (#10)

The Trend: Personal trainers help you reach your goals and equip you with the tools you need to succeed. Fitness professionals are now more accessible online, in clubs, and at home.

Exercise is Medicine (#6), Fitness Programs for Older Adults (#8) and Health/Wellness Coaching (#9)

The Trend: The priority for older adult fitness is to blend exercise with medical care. This global initiative encourages health care providers to include exercise in treatment plans.

Body Weight Training (#7)

The Trend: Push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, etc. remain easy and economical ways to stay in shape. This type of resistance training accomplishes much in a small space.
